If p(x) is a function, then a real-world example might be
The amount of fish food, in grams required for the giant koi fish in the pond can be represented by the function
. If there are 50 fish, how many grams of fish food will you need?
Answer:
5b - 5a
Step-by-step explanation:
b(5 - a) = 5b - ab
- a(b - 5) = - ab + 5a
Subtracting gives
5b - ab - (- ab + 5a) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1
= 5b - ab + ab - 5a ← collect like terms
= 5b - 5a
Answer:
add the negative to the 0 that is left alone at the end then carry the x2 over to the side bringing it down with the x and cancel them taking away the 2. the answer is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We require 2 equations with the repeating 3 placed after the decimal point.
let x = 0.5333.. ( multiply both sides by 10 and 100 )
10x = 5.333... → (1)
100x = 53.333... → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) tus eliminating the repeating 3
90x = 48 ( divide both sides by 90 )
x = =
