I was on the right track, lol. 280.5 miles.
You have to searh the x values that make f(x) = 0
Factoring this equation is very difficult.
You can divide by x+3 and you will find that the equation can be factored as
(x+3)(x-4)^2
That means that x = -3 and x = 4 make f(x) = 0
Then the points are (-3,0) and (4,0).
Answer:
B) 5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the amount of mph between 60 and 80:
80 - 60
= 20 mph
Since the speed increases 4 mph per hour, we can find how long it will take to get to 80 mph by dividing 20 by 4:
20/4
= 5
So, the correct answer is B, 5 hours
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We have several properties of exponents in use here. The two that are used are:
<em>(Exponents with the same base that are being multiplied together can have the exponents added)</em>
<em>(A base raised to a power, and then raised to another power means that you can multiply the exponents to get the same result as doing inside operations and then outside operations)</em>
<em />
Let's apply it!
First, let's simplify what's inside the parenthesis.
<em>(Remember, they have the same base of "x", so we can add the exponents)</em>
= 
= 
Now we have 
. Let's use the second rule.
=
Hope this helps! :^)
Answer:
f(x + h) = 3x³ + x² + 9h²x + 3h³ + h² + 9hx² + 2hx
General Formulas and Concepts:
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Distributive Property
- Expand by FOIL (First Outside Inside Last)
- Combining like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define function</u>
f(x) = x² + 3x³
f(x + h) is x = x + h
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
- Substitute: f(x + h) = (x + h)² + 3(x + h)³
- Expand by FOILing: f(x + h) = (x² + 2hx + h²) + 3(x + h)³
- Rewrite: f(x + h) = (x² + 2hx + h²) + 3(x + h)²(x + h)
- Expand by FOILing: f(x + h) = (x²+2hx+h²) + 3(x² + 2hx + h²)(x+h)
- Distribute/Expand: f(x + h) = (x²+2hx+h²) + 3(x³+3hx²+3h²x+h³)
- Distribute 3: f(x + h) = (x²+2hx+h²)+(3x³+9hx²+9h²x+3h³)
- Combine like terms: f(x + h) = 3x³+x²+9h²x+3h³+h²+9hx²+2hx
