Answer:

A = 3x² - x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × width , then

A = (3x + 5)(x - 2)

each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor.

A = 3x(x - 2) + 5(x - 2) ← distribute parenthesis

= 3x² - 6x + 5x - 10 ← collect like terms

= 3x² - x - 10

Answer:

A = 3x² - x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

A = length × width

A = (3x + 5)(x - 2)

A = 3x(x - 2) + 5(x - 2)

A = 3x² - 6x + 5x - 10

A = 3x² - x - 10

AFC = FC / Quantity printed

So given she prints 1,000 posters: AFC = 250.00/1000 = $0.25 
Given she prints 2,000 posters: AFC = 250.00/2000 = $0.125 
Given she prints 10,000 posters: AFC = 250.00/2000 = $0.025 

ATC = TC / Quantity printed 

where TC = FC + Variable C * Quantity printed 

If she prints 1000: TC = 250 + 2000*1000 = 2,000,250 
ATC = 2,000,250/1000 = 2000.25 

If she prints 2000: TC = 250 + 1600*2000 = 3,200,250 
ATC = 3,200,250/2000 = 1600.125 

If she prints 10000: TC = 250 + 1600*2000 + 1000*8000 ($1000 for each additional poster after 2000) = 11,200,250 
ATC = 11,200,250/10000 = 1120.025

Multiply and give the answer in scientific notation:

kakasveta [241]

Step-by-step explanation:

given

$(1.5 \times {10}^{4} )(8 \times {10}^{8} )$

in order to make multiplication easier we need to change the 1.5 into a whole number form.

thus

$(15 \times {10}^{ - 1} \times {10}^{4} )(8 \times {10}^{8} )$

$= (15 \times {10}^{4 - 1} )(8 \times {10}^{8} )$

First law of indices applied there

=(15×10^3)(8×10^8)

=(15×8)(10^3×10^8)

=120×10^3+8 ( first law of indices, which states that , numbers of the same base multiplying each other, take one of the base and add the exponent. and clearly both 15 and 8 are in base 10

=120×10^11

=1.20×10^2 ×10^11

=1.20×10^11+2

=1.20×10^13

so the answer is alt B

Divide 3/4 by 1/8 and you should get 6 hurdles.
