Answer: B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
First, solve the terms inside of the parenthesis. As a general rule, whenever you multiply two terms that have the same base, you can add their exponents.
Applying this rule, the base in the problem is 6, and the exponents are 3 and -4. The sum of 3 and -4 leaves -1. Therefore, this is one of our solutions:

When you have an exponential term raised to another exponent, you can simply multiply the exponents. In the previous solution given above, multiply -1 and -3 to get 3. Therefore our second solution is:

Answer:
Here is a graph of that equation.
Let me know if you need more help! :)
Answer:
Let C be the cost for the people staying
if n <= 2 ; C = $125
If n >2 ; C = $125 + $25 * (n-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number of people is more than two, we need to add $25 for each of them.
Since n will be the number of people staying, we need to make sure that we substract two from this term to avoid overcharging the guests when there is less than two people.
So
(n-2) is the term that should be multiplied by a factor of 25.
To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac and j+k=b
The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...
2k^2-5k-18=0
2k^2+4k-9k-18=0
2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0
(2k-9)(k+2)=0
so k=-2 and 9/2
k=(-2, 4.5)
The common factor of 5x2 is y5x
