Answer:
x + 46
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define expression</u>
4(-8x + 5) - (-33x - 26)
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
- Distribute: -32x + 20 + 33x + 26
- Combine like terms (x): x + 20 + 26
- Combine like terms (Z): x + 46
Part A: it is linear because it is not curving and it consists of straight lines.
Part B: in side A it is increasing because it has a positive slope. In side b it is constant because the slope is 0 since it is straight. Finally, side C is decreasing because the slope is negative.
Part C: during side A the ant is crawling out of the hole in 2 seconds. After that, the ant stops for 2 more seconds as shown in side B. Then, he crawls back into the hole as shown by the decrease in distance due to the slope.
Hope this helps!!!
