Answer:

$Expression = 7 + x + 5$

$Simplified = 12 + x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Required:

Write as an expression and simplify

The sum of a number, x and 5 can be represented as: x + 5

So, the expression becomes: 7 + x + 5

$Expression = 7 + x + 5$

Solving further:

Collect Like terms

$Expression = 7 + 5 + x$

Add like terms

$Expression = 12 + x$

Hence, the simplified expression is: 12 + x

A box without a top is made from a rectangular piece of cardboard with dimensions 12 cm by 10 cm, by cutting out square corners

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

x ≈ 1.8 cm gives the greatest volume

Step-by-step explanation:

After cutting x cm from each corner in each direction, the cardboard can be folded up to make a box that is x cm deep and (12 -2x) by (10 -2x) in length and width. Clearly, values of x are limited to 5 or less, since cutting 5 cm from each side would leave a width of zero. Then the volume is given by ...

V = x(12 -2x)(10 -2x)

The plot below shows the value of this cubic equation for volume, and identifies the peak as (x, V) ≈ (1.8, 96.8). That is, a cut of 1.8 cm will result in a box of approximate volume 96.8 cm³.

How long will it take for the balance of an account to double if the savings account earns 0.75% annual interest compounded mont

Margarita [4]

You're looking for the time $t$ that it takes for the principal $P$ to double, so $A=2P$ . Dividing both sides of the formula by $P$ leaves you with

$2=\left(1+\dfrac rn\right)^{nt}$

You're given that the account earns 0.75% interest and that the interest is compounded monthly, so $r=0.0075$ and $n=12$ .

$2=\left(1+\dfrac{0.0075}{12}\right)^{12t}$
$\ln2=\ln\left(1+\dfrac{0.0075}{12}\right)^{12t}$
$\ln2=12t\ln\left(1+\dfrac{0.0075}{12}\right)$
$t=\dfrac{\ln2}{12\ln\left(1+\dfrac{0.0075}{12}\right)}\approx92.45$

What is the inverse of F(x) = 4x + 1

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{x-1}{4}$

Explanation:

y = 4x + 1

Switch the x and y

x=4y+1

Solve for y

Subtract 1 from both sides

x-1=4y

Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{x-1}{4}$

Hope this helps!
