Answer:

Sugar Maple

8 + 1.5x = 15.5

8 + 0.25x = 9.25

Sycamore

8 + 2.5x = 12.5

Red Maple

8x + 3 = 43

Answer:

I answered this question in another thread, I'll copy paste it here.

<u>Sugar Maple</u>

8 + 1.5x = 15.5

<u>Fraser Fir</u>

8 + 0.25x = 9.25

<u>Sycamore</u>

8 + 2.5x = 12.5

<u>Oak</u>

8 + 4x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

It cannot be Red Maple or Linden, because they are multiplying the number of years by the height it already has. We are looking for the height it <u><em>will have</em></u> BASED on the <u>rate</u> that Chang calculated. Therefore, we are <em>multiplying</em> the RATE by the NUMBER OF YEARS (x).

It <u>cannot</u> be <em>red maple </em>or<em> Linden </em>because you are multiplying the height they already have, and not the rate it will grow by.

The right expression to represent the growth of Red Maple would be

8 + 3x = 23

The right expression to represent the growth of Linden would be

8 + 1.5x = 15.5

Therefore, again, these are the <u>correct answer(s)</u>: Sugar Maple, Fraser Fir, Sycamore, and Oak.

How do I solve this equation
Anestetic [448]
-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1

Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts.  First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable.  I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.

-x - y = 8      add y to each side
-x = 8 + y      divide by -1
x = -8 - y

So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation.  In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.

2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1      multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1      combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1            add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15                   divide each side by -3
y = -5

Now we have a value for y.  We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x.  I usually choose the most simple equation.

-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8            multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8                subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3                      divide each side by -1
x = -3

So our solution set is

(-3, -5)

That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.

Factor out the greatest common factor <br>-5x^2 - 5x^3 - 15x^4
vaieri [72.5K]
Our answer is -5x^{2} (3x^{2} +x+1)

Our greatest common factor, or GCF, is -5x^{2}, so when we factor is out, our divide each term by -5x^{2}, we get our answer. To check this, we can multiply the -5x^{2} back across the parenthesis and see if we get the same result as our initial question.

Hope this helped! :))
