Distribute the 3a^n to all the other values then solve...
(3a^n*a^n)+(3a^n*a^n)+(3a^n*-1)
4a^2n+4a^2n-3a^n=
8a^2n-3a^n
Answer: B
the blocks add up to 26
To get the answer we can use proportion.
30----------100%
12-----------x
Cross multiply now
30x=12*100%
30x=1200% /:30 (divide both sides by 30)
x=40% - it's the percentage of cars which finished the race.
100%-40%=60% - it's the answer
Given:
The graph of a line segment.
The line segment AB translated by the following rule:

To find:
The coordinates of the end points of the line segment A'B'.
Solution:
From the given figure, it is clear that the end points of the line segment AB are A(-2,-3) and B(4,-1).
We have,

Using this rule, we get


Similarly,


Therefore, the endpoint of the line segment A'B' are A'(2,-6) and B'(8,-4).
