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:
Apples and Peaches
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to compare the prices for 3 lbs of each of the fruits.
Multiply the price and quantity of Apples by 4:
... 4×(3/4 lb) = 4×$1.59
... 3 lb = $6.36 . . . . for apples
Multiply the price and quantity of Plums by 6:
... 6×(0.5 lb) = 6×$1.15
... 3 lb = $6.90 . . . . for plums
The two lowest-priced fruits are apples (6.36/(3 lb)) and peaches (5.37/(3 lb)).
_____
<em>Comment on</em> the best deal
No criteria are provided for determining the best deal. Though plums are higher-priced, they have somewhat higher polyphenol content than apples or peaches, so may provide the best deal in terms of nutrition per dollar.
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the same bases, so you can just focus on the exponents.
The difference between 5 and -1 is 6, therefore, the answer is B.
