Answer: She needed 144 square feet of carpet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Maria is buying new carpet. Her bedroom is in the shape of a square.
The length of each side is 12 feet.
We know that the area of square = 
So , the area of the bedroom =
[which is an exponential expression]
Simplify it
The area of the bedroom = 
Also, the carpet she needed = Area of the bedroom.
Thus , She needed 144 square feet of carpet.
Answer:
6n+1
Step-by-step explanation:
first term=13-6=7
nth term=7+(n-1)6=7+6n-6=6n+1
Answer:
To do this, you need to multiply out the expressions. This is a bit tedious, but remember like FOIL for binomials, for these trinomials you must multiply each term. If you need a step-by-step, I'd be happy to provide it. Let me know.
Once you have simplified the expression, you get
-x-9/2x-4
But, the problem stipulates that a must equal 1. We can equivalently factor out the negative sign and put it on the denominator with no change to write
x+9/-(2x-4) = x+9/-2x+4
So, seeing where each coefficient corresponds between the two expressions, you get a = 1, b = 9, c = –2, and d = 4.
Answer:
Percent change from 15 to 18.
You need to divide the numbers, but which one goes on top?
You know the number increases from 15 to 18, so the percentage must be greater than 100%.
The only way to get a number greater than 100% is to put the larger number on top.
Therefore, the answer is 18/15 = 1.2
Multiply by 100 to get a %
1.2 * 100 = 120%
2. Calculate percentage change
from V1 = 5 to V2 = 8
ans= 60%
overall answer gain of 15 yards and 18 yards
Combining the numbers, we get 3w+12=5
3w=-7
w=-7/3
