Answer:

$\huge\boxed{C.\ -x^3-2x-12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x+2)(-x^2+2x-6)\\\\=(x)(-x^2)+(x)(2x)+(x)(-6)+(2)(-x^2)+(2)(2x)+(2)(-6)\\\\=-x^3+2x^2-6x-2x^2+4x-12\\\\\text{combine like terms}\\\\=-x^3+(2x^2-2x^2)+(-6x+4x)-12\\\\=-x^3-2x-12$

Solve the system of equations by substitution. 3/8 x + 1/3 y =17/24 and <br> x + 7y = 8

goblinko [34]

$\left \{ {{ \frac{3}{8}x+ \frac{1}{3}y = \frac{17}{14} } \atop {x+7y=8}} \right.$

To solve this system by substitution, first isolate x in the second equation.

$x+7y=8$
$x+7y-7y=8-7y$
$x=8-7y$

Now, plug this expression ( $8-7y$ ) for x in the top equation to solve for y.

$\frac{3}{8} (8-7y)+ \frac{1}{3} y= \frac{17}{14}$
$3- \frac{21}{8} y+ \frac{1}{3} y= \frac{17}{24}$
$72-63y+8y=17$
$72-55y=17$
$-55y=17-72$
$-55y=-55$
$y=1$

Now that you have y, plug it into the second equation and solve for x.

$x+7y=8$
$x+7(1)=8$
$x+7=8$
$x=1$

Last step is to plug your x- and y-values in to both equations to check your work.

$\frac{3}{8} (1)+ \frac{1}{3} y= \frac{17}{24}$

$\frac{3}{8} * \frac{3}{3} = \frac{9}{24} ; \frac{1}{3} * \frac{8}{8} = \frac{8}{24}$

$\frac{9}{24} + \frac{8}{24} = \frac{17}{24}$ <--True

$1+7(1)=8$
$1+7=8$ <--True

Answer:
$x=1 \\ y=1$

Isolate the h in c=25h+350

Sati [7]

Subtract 350 from both sides then divide both sides by 25.

(c-350)/25 = h
