Answer:

0.2w^2+4w+3

Step-by-step explanation:

a(w)=−0.4w^2+5w+9

c(w)=−0.2w^2+9w+12

We want to find the how many more children than adults

f(w) = c(w) - a(w)

    = −0.2w^2+9w+12 - ( −0.4w^2+5w+9)

Distribute the minus sign

= −0.2w^2+9w+12 +0.4w^2-5w-9

Combine like terms

 = 0.2w^2+4w+3

Step-by-step explanation:

y =  \sqrt{4x + 6}

{y}^{2}  = 4x + 6

{y}^{2}  - 6 = 4x

\frac{1}{4} ( {y}^{2}  - 6) = x

Swap x and y

\frac{ {x}^{2} - 6 }{4}  = y

On a huge site in San-Diego the whole new street of houses was constructed. To put the numbers on all new buildings the plates w
Papessa [141]
<h2>There are 45 houses on the left and require 95 plates, while there are 44 houses on the right and require 94 plates</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

   Houses are numbered from 1 to 99. So, there are 99 houses. Odd-numbered houses are on the left. So, there are 50 houses on the left, while there are 49 houses on the right.

For houses on left : The houses are numbered 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13..... 97, 99

   So 5 houses( 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) require only one plate for numbering, while the remaining 45 houses require 2 plates each. So total number of plates = 5\textrm{x}1+45\textrm{x}2 = 95 plates.

For houses on right : The houses are numbered 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14.... 96, 98

   So 4 houses( 2, 4, 6, 8) require only one plate for numbering, while the remaining 45 houses require 2 plates each. So total number of plates = 4\textrm{x}1+45\textrm{x}2 = 94 plates.

∴ There are 45 houses on the left and require 95 plates, while there are 44 houses on the right and require 94 plates.
