t is already cut that he can buy for $5.50. If he has the exact size piece he needs cut from a bolt of fabric, it will cost $8.98 a yard. a.) Is the piece of material that is already cut large enough for his pillow? b.) What would be the cost of having exactly 24 inches of fabric cut? c.) Which is the better buy for Carlos?​

Answer:

a. the piece is already large enough

b. about $5.9866666666 or round to $5.99 for exactly 24 inch

c. The first option is a better buy

Step-by-step explanation:

a. convert 3/4 yard to inches. 1 yard = 36 inch. so 0.75yd / x = 1 / 36

solve and get x = 27 inches, this is more than 24 inches needed.

b. first find how many yards you need, that is same as 24 inch.

1 / 36 = x / 24 inch

x = 2/3 yards

next find how much price would be:

8.98 / 1 = x / 2/3

x = 8.98(2/3) = about $5.99

c. compare the two prices, $5.50 is less than $5.99 so the first option is better.

I spent a while to explain - please rate/like, thank you!

Solve for (f+g)(5) if f(x)=6x+3 and g(x)=x-4 show you work please
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
There are two ways to do this.

The first way is to algebraically find (f+g)(x) first and plug in x = 5 later. Doing that method leads us to
(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)
(f+g)(x) = 6x+3 + x-4
(f+g)(x) = 7x-1
(f+g)(5) = 7(5)-1
(f+g)(5) = 34

OR

you can compute f(5) and g(5) first, then add up those sub-results to get
f(x) = 6x+3
f(5) = 6(5)+3
f(5) = 33
g(x) = x-4
g(5) = 5-4
g(5) = 1
Adding up these results gives: (f+g)(5) = f(5) + g(5) = 33+1 = 34

Either way, the final answer is 34

Y= -3x^2-24x-46 write in vertex form
mario62 [17]

ANSWER

y= -3{(x + 4)}^{2}  + 2

EXPLANATION

The given function is:

y= -3x^2-24x-46

Factor -3 for the first 2 terms.

y= -3(x^2 + 8x)-46

We add and subtract the square of the coefficient of x.

y= -3(x^2 + 8x +  {(4)}^{2} )  - - 3( {4)}^{2} -46

Factor the perfect square trinomial.

y= -3 {(x + 4)}^{2} )  + 48 -46

The vertex form is:

y= -3{(x + 4)}^{2}  + 2
