Answer:

[tex]f=-18a^2+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

[tex]f=3-2(3a)^2[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Apply exponent rule} \quad (ab)^n=a^n b^n:[/tex]

[tex]\implies f=3-2(3^2a^2)[/tex]

Rewrite 3² as 9:

[tex]\implies f=3-2(9a^2)[/tex]

Remove the parentheses:

[tex]\implies f=3-2 \cdot 9a^2[/tex]

Multiply the numbers 2 · 9 = 18 :

[tex]\implies f=3-18a^2[/tex]

Rearrange to make the variable the first term:

[tex]\implies f=-18a^2+3[/tex]

In a playing card there are 52 cards. (i) '2' of spades: Number of favourable outcomes i.e. '2' of spades is 1 out of 52 cards.

According to the internet it states, The median of a triangle is a line segment joining the vertex of the triangle to the mid-point of its opposite side.

It bisects the opposite side, dividing it into two equal parts.

The median of a triangle further divides the triangle into two triangles having the same area

f(x) = x^4 - 5x^3 + x^2 + 21x - 18

=======================================================

Explanation:

The root x = -2 means x+2 is a factor. This is because we add 2 to both sides of x = -2 to get x+2 = 0.

Similarly, x = 3 leads to x-3 being another factor. It's a double root so we really have two copies of (x-3)

The last root is x = 1 which gives the factor x-1.

The four factors are: (x+2)(x-3)(x-3)(x-1)

Let's use the FOIL rule to expand out the first two factors

(x+2)(x-3) = x^2-3x+2x-6 = x^2-x-6

Do the same for the last two factors

(x-3)(x-1) = x^2-1x-3x+3 = x^2-4x+3

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

So far we have:

(x+2)(x-3) = x^2-x-6

(x-3)(x-1) = x^2-4x+3

which leads to  

(x+2)(x-3)(x-3)(x-1) = (x^2-x-6)(x^2-4x+3)

From here I'll use the box method to multiply these trinomials. Check out the diagram below. Each inner cell is the result of multiplying the headers. Example: x^2 times x^2 = x^4 in the upper left corner.

I've color-coded the inner cells to show the like terms. Add up those like terms:

Therefore we end up with

(x^2-x-6)(x^2-4x+3) = x^4 - 5x^3 + x^2 + 21x - 18 which is choice B

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

To verify this answer, plug in x = 0 and you should get y = -18 to show that we have the correct y intercept. If we tried this with choice A, then we'd get y = 18 which helps eliminate choice A.

Furthermore, plug in x = -2 into choice B and you should get y = 0 as an output. The same applies to x = 3 and x = 1. This confirms that they are roots or x intercepts of the polynomial.

Another way to verify the answer is to use something like WolframAlpha to type in (x+2)(x-3)(x-3)(x-1). Under the "expanded form" subsection, it says x^4 - 5x^3 + x^2 + 21x - 18

Answer:

1) All real numbers n such that [tex]n < 5.5[/tex]

2) All real numbers n such that [tex]n > -\frac{19}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation: How did I come up with such answers? Let me show you!

For the first problem, we just solve the inequality easily.

Subtracting 3 from both sides, we get:

4n < 22

Dividing by 4 from both sides, we get:

n < 5.5

Thus, all real numbers n that is less than 5.5 when plugged in for x will be less than 25.

For the next problem, it will be slightly trickier.

Subtracting 5 from both sides, we get:

-7n < 19

Dividing -7 from both sides, we get:

n > -19/7

Did you catch that? We just flipped the inequality sign and turned it from less than to a greater than. Whenever we divide by a negative number, the signs always change.

Thus, for all real numbers n greater than -19/7, when plugging in for x, you will get less than 24.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number sentence that applies the commutative property to the example is 4 × 3 = 12

Commutative property can be additive or multiplicative. It is a way of changing the position of a function or value in an expression without affecting the result

Examples are

A +B = B +A

AB = BA

Although the value were interchanged, the result were not affected. Hence the number sentence that applies the commutative property to the example is 4 × 3 = 12 since changing 3 and 4 does not affect the result

Answer:

  -4sin(2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle sum identities can be used to simplify this expression.

The cosine function is even, so cos(-x) = cos(x). The cosine of the sum is ...

  cos(90°+x) = cos(90°)cos(x) -sin(90°)sin(x) = -sin(x)

Then the numerator simplifies to ...

  4cos(-x)cos(90°+x) = -4cos(x)sin(x) = -2sin(2x)

Matching the denominator expression to the sine of a sum relation, we see

  sin(30° -x)cos(x) +sin(x)cos(30° -x) = sin((30°-x) +x) = sin(30°) = 1/2

The simplified expression is the ratio of the simplified numerator to the simplified denominator:

  = -sin(2x)/(1/2)

  = -4sin(2x)

The combinations of ordered triplets that are possible is equal to: A. 18.

Since the common difference (d) between the consecutive terms in an arithmetic progression (AP) is constant, we have:

d = y - x = z - y

Rearranging the terms, we have:

x = y - d

z = y + d

From the given equation:

x + y + z = 30

y - d + y + y + d = 30

3y = 30

y = 30/3

y = 10.

So the arithmetic progression (AP) is given by:

(10 - d), 10, (10 + d)....

Since the common difference (d) is a natural number which would be from 1 to 9, the combinations of ordered triplets that are possible is as follows:

Number of possibilities = 9 × 2

Number of possibilities = 18.

Given that, one digit of a two digit number is three times the other digit.

Let assume that digit at ones place be x.

digit at ones place be x.So, digit at tens place be 3x.

digit at ones place be x.So, digit at tens place be 3x.So, two digit original number = 10 × 3x + 1 × x = 30x + x = 31x

Now, number formed on interchanging its digits, i.e.

Reverse number = 10 × x + 1 × 3x = 10x + 3x = 13x

According to statement, if we interchange the digits of this two digit number and add the resulting number to the original number, we get 88.

[tex]\begin{gathered}\sf \: 31x + 13x = 88 \\ \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

1. The Year-0 net cash flow is -$1,061,500.

2. The net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3 are as follows:

Year 1: $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

Year 2: $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

Year 3: $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

3. The additional Year-3 cash flow (i.e, the after-tax salvage and the return of working capital) is $468,750 {($599,000 x 1 - 0.25) + $19,500}.

4. The NPV of the project is ($13,139).

5. The machine should not be purchased because it does not yield a positive NPV.

The net present value (NPV) shows the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time.

It is determined by calculating the present values of cash flows using their present value factors as below:

Initial cash outlay = $1,061,500 ($1,020,000 + $22,000 + $19,500)

Salvage value = $599,000

Increase in net working capital = $19,500

Annual savings before tax = $386,000

Tax rate = 25%

Annuial savings after tax = $288,750 ($386,000 x 1 - 0.25)

Year      Cashflows        PV Factor     Present Value

0          -$1,061,500               1             -$1,061,500

1              $288,750          0.901           $260,164
