Replace x with the binomial a - 2.
f(a - 2) = [3(a - 2) + 5]/(a- 2)
f(a - 2) = [3a - 6 + 5]/(a - 2)
f(a - 2) = [3a - 1]/(a - 2)
f(a - 2) = (3a - 1)/(a - 2)
Done.
Answer:
$186.86
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>4 eggs cost:</u>
1 dollar per dozen (12 eggs), so by unitary method (ratios), we can find cost of 4 eggs. Shown below:

So, 4 eggs cost $0.33 approx
<u>12 lb. flour cost:</u>
2.50 dollar per pound, so 12 pounds would simply cost:
2.5 * 12 = $30
<u>14 lb of sugar cost:</u>
4.50 dollar per pound means 14 pounds would cost:
4.5 * 14 = $63
<u>2 ready-made edible flowers cost:</u>
5 cents for each flower means 2 flowers would cost:
5 cent = 0.05 dollars
0.05 * 2 = $0.10
We add all up to find cost of 1 cake. Shown below:
Cost of 1 cake = $0.33 + $30 + $63 + $0.10 = $93.43
Cost of 2 cakes = $93.43 * 2 = $186.86
Answer:
Quotient is
and remainder is 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Dividend = 
Divisor = 
The long division is shown in the attachment.
Step 1: we need to divide
with
we first multiply
with 3x we get the remainder as 
Quotient as 3x.
Step 2: Now the dividend is
and divisor
now we will multiply
with -5 we get the remainder as 0 and Quotient as 
Hence Quotient is
and remainder is 0.
This is because logarithm has its own set of properties that is different from algebra. The term log(3x - 1) is equivalent to log 3x/log 1. If we continue to rearrange and find x, the solution would be:
log(3x - 1) = log28
log 3x/log 1 = log 28
log 3x = log 28 * log 1 = 0
3x = 10⁰ = 1
3x = 1
x = 1/3
<em>So, that means 3x - 1 = 3(1/3) - 1 = 0.</em>
