Foil method:
FOIL stands for
first-multiply the first term in each set of parenthesis
outer-multiply the outer term in each of the perenthesis
inner- multiply the inner term in each of the parenthesis
last- multiply the last term in each of the parenthesis
(3x+8)(x+1)
(3x*x)=3x^2
(3x*1)=3x
8*x=8x
8*1=8
thus we shall have:
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8
Distributive property:
(3x+8)(x+1)
3x(x+1)+8(x+1)
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8
Both methods are efficient, it all depends with the users preference
Answer:
y = 3.5x - 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1 / x2 - x1) with the 2 points:
(-2 - 5) / (3 - 5)
-7/-2
= 3.5
Then, plug the slope and a point into y = mx + b to solve for b:
y = mx + b
5 = 3.5(5) + b
5 = 17.5 + b
-12.5 = b
Plug the slope and the y intercept into the equation y = mx + b
y = 3.5x - 12.5 will be the equation
2500 is 40% of the 100%
so, from the 40%, figure out 10%
2500/4=600
600 x 6=3,600
so, 3,600 is the answer
