Simplify -3p3 + 5p + (-2p2) + (-4) - 12p + 5 - (-8p3). Select the answer in descending powers of p. 1 - 7 p - 2 p2 + 5 p3 1 + 7 p + 2 p2 - 5 p3 5 p3 - 2 p2 - 7 p + 1 -5 p3 + 2 p2 + 7 p + 1

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!

ok thats very interesting

the height of the surface increases from the center out to the sides of the road.

step-by-step explanation:

as we move out we move away from the x-axis.

and as mentioned in the problem statement that height of a road increases when we move away from the center x.

hence proved that 3rd option

the height of the surface increases from the center out to the sides of the road.

is the correct option.
