# Expand (2x - 3)2. If a, b, and c represent

the coefficients of the resulting polynomial in

descending powers of x, what is a+b+c?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a + b + c = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To expand the bracket, [tex](2x - 3)^{2}[/tex] we will simply be multiplying the bracket by itself.

This will be the same as having [tex](2x - 3) \times (2x - 3)[/tex]

The first step in doing this is to multiply each of the values in the second bracket by the values in the first one.

[tex]2x \times 2x =4x^2[/tex]

[tex]2x\times -3 = -6x[/tex]

[tex]-3 \times 2x = -6x[/tex]

[tex]-3 \times -3 =9[/tex]

Once this is done, the next step is to group the like terms and evaluate the result.

[tex]4x^2 -6x-6x +9[/tex]

[tex]4x^2 -12x +9[/tex]

This is algebraic expression is the result of the expansion of [tex](2x - 3)^{2}[/tex] .

Based on the descending powers of x

a = 4

b = -12

c = 9

These are the coefficients of [tex]x^2[/tex]  and [tex]x[/tex] and also the last figure.

a + b + c = 4 -12 +9 = 1

Every weekday after tennis practice, Will buys either a carton of milk or a bottle
of power drink.
Suppose that m is the number of cartons of milk that Will purchased during
the last month. His total cost for beverages in dollars last month can be
represented by the algebraic expression 2m + 3 (20 – m).
Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply.
The cost of the power drink is $3 per bottle,
Will purchased 20 more bottles of power drink than cartons of milk.
Will purchased a total of 20 beverages during the last month.
The total amount Will spent on power drinks was $60
An equivalent expression for the total cost of Will's beverages during this month is
60 - m dollars
Will purchased 20 more cartons of milk than bottles of power drink

Answers

Answer:

The correct options are;

The cost of milk powder is $3 per bottle

An equivalent expression for the total cost of Will's beverages during this month is 60 - m dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The items Will buys every weekday after tennis practice = A carton of milk or a bottle of powder drink

The number of milk purchased during the month = m

Will's total cost for beverages in dollars last month = 2·m + 3·(20 - m)

1) Therefore, given that the total amount is factored in dollars, we have;

2·m and 3·(20 - m) are dollar amounts, while, m is a quantity;

Therefore;

Where;

2·m = The total cost of the cartons of milk, then the factor 2 represents $2.00 which is the cost per carton of milk

Similarly, 3·(20 - m) can be said to represent the total cost of the powder drink then the factor 3 represents $3.00 which is the cost per powder drink and the factor (20 - m), represents the number of powder drink Will buys for the month

From which we found the cost of milk powder = $3.00 per bottle

2) The expression, 2·m + 3·(20 - m) simplifies to 2·m + 60 - 3·m, which gives;

2·m + 60 - 3·m = 60 - m which is an equivalent expression for the total cost of Will's beverages for the month.

Answer:

D: All real numbers or (-∞, ∞)

R: (-∞, 2] or y ≤ 2

------------------------------------------

Domain:

The graphed function has arrows on both ends, meaning that it will extend to -∞ and ∞. Therefore the Domain is:

D: All real numbers or (-∞, ∞)

Range:

The graph extends downward infinitely, so the graph will extend to y = -∞ as x ⇒ -∞ and x⇒ ∞.

The graphed function has a maximum, or greatest y-value at y = 2, therefore:

R: (-∞, 2] or y ≤ 2

Explanation:

the angles of a qaudileteral are x,2x,100 and 110 degress find the value of 2x

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!!!

We generally sum up all the angles to get 360° as per given in our question.

Here, in your question, we have values as,

x, 2x, 100°, 110°.

(We have 360° as the sum quadrilateral).

So, x° + 2x° + 100°+110° = 360°

3x°+210°= 360°

3x° = 360° - 210°

or, 3x° = 150°

[tex]x = \frac{15 0 }{3} [/tex]

Therefore the measure of 2x is (2×50)°=100°.

Hopeit helps...

Answer:

X=50; 2x=2×50=100

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°

Therefore; x+2x+100+110=360;

3x+210=360;

3x=360-210;

3x=150;

divide both sides by the co-efficient of x;

3x/3=150/3;

x=50;

therefore 2x=2×50;

2x=100.

A teacher plans to buy air fresheners that cost $3.50 each. If the teacher can spend no more than $10 on the air fresheners and has a $3 discount coupon, which inequality represents the number of air fresheners, x, the teacher can buy?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to create an equation to represent how many air fresheners the teacher can buy.

Teacher has $10 and a $3 discount coupon which would give her an extra $3 to spend. Each air freshener is $3.50.

x = number of air fresheners

($10 + $3) / $3.50 = x        can be written as $13/$3.50 = x

We add $10 and $3 because that gives us the total amount she has to spend.

We divide by $3.50 because that is the cost of each air freshener. The result is the number of air fresheners she can buy.

In this case.

$13/$3.50 = x

3.71 = x   BUT we can't buy part of an air freshener, so she can purchase 3 air fresheners.

Find four consecutive even integers whose sum is 100 what are the integers

Answers

X → first

X + 2 → second

X + 4 → third

X + 4 → fourth

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 100

4x + 12 = 100

4x = 88  

x = 22

x + 2 = 24

x + 4 = 26

x + 6 = 28

So your integers are 22, 24, 26, and 28.
