Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see in the expression that there are 2 x² blocks, 4 -x blocks, and 3 -1 blocks. Therefore, we can write this as
2 * x² + 4 * (-x) + 3 * (-1) = 2x²-4x-3
Comparing this with each answer, we have
A: x²-2x-4 + x² + 2x-1 = 2x²-5. This is not correct
B: 3x²-7x+1-(x²-3x+4) = 3x²-7x+1 -x²+3x-4 = 2x²-4x-3. This seems correct but we can check the other answers to be sure
C: (2x+1)(x-3) = 2x²-6x+x-3 = 2x²-5x-3. This is incorrect
D: . This is incorrect
Answer:
f = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
- Apply the distributed property, so it now looks like this: 2f - 10 = 6
- Add 10 to each side, so it now looks like this: 2f = 16
- Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to f. It should now look like this: f = 8
I hope this helps!
If you assume doubling the workers will halve the time taken to finish then 12 analysts will take 21 days
To finish in 7 days (1/6 of 42 days) you would need 6 x the original number = 36 analysts.
Brook’s Law (see Wikipedia) suggests than adding extra analysts will actually slow the project down!
One reason is the extra people tend to get in each others way.
Answer:
x = 11
y = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that opposite angles (or vertical angles) are equal.
So
8x + 7 = 9x - 4
Subtract 8x from both sides of the equation
8x - 8x + 7 = 9x - 8x - 4
7 = x - 4
Add 4 to both sides of the equation
7 + 4 = x - 4 + 4
11 = x
Looking at the other 2 angles,
5y = 7y - 34
Subtract 7 y from both sides of the equation
5y - 7y = 7y - 7y - 34
-2y = -34
Divide both sides by -2
-2y/-2 = -34/-2
y = 17
