Answer:
(c) 27x^11 +51x^7 +9x^6 -60x^5 +17x^2 -20
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many multiple-choice questions, you only need to look at something that will discriminate the correct answer from the wrong one.
The highest-degree product term is the product of the highest-degree terms in the factors:
(3x^5)(9x^6) = 27x^11
This matches choice C only.
_____
In case you're interested in actually performing the rest of the multiplication, the distributive property applies.
(1 +3x^5)(17x^2 +9x^6 -20)
= 1(17x^2 +9x^6 -20) +3x^5(17x^2 +9x^6 -20)
= 17x^2 +9x^6 -20 +51x^7 +27x^11 -60x^5
Writing these terms in order of decreasing exponents gives ...
= 27x^11 +51x^7 +9x^6 -60x^5 +17x^2 -20
Part A:Bees: f ( t ) = 1,500 * 0.88^tFlowering plants: g ( t ) = 800 - 25 tPart B :f ( 6 ) = 1,500 * 0.88^6 = 696.6 ≈ 697
g ( 6 ) = 800 - 25 * 6 = 800 - 150 = 650Part C :f ( 7 ) = 1,500 * 0.88^7 = 613g ( 7 ) = 800 - 7 * 25 = 625f ( 7 ) ≈ g ( 7 )After approximately 7 months.
Answer:
y=2x+1, assuming my change in the reported data was correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data for x had one more entry than the values for y. I removed the second "0" so that the x and y points line up, as shown in the attached image. The data indicate a straight line, with a slope of 2 (y increases by 2 for every x increase of 1). The y-intercept is 1, as per the first data point (0,1).
