Let V(x)=−x2+2x−4 and W(x)=−x3+2x2+x+5. Find V(x)−W(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

v(x) - W(x) = x² + 2x  - 4 - [x³ + 2x² + x + 5]

                = x² + 2x - 4 - x³ - 2x² -x - 5

                = x² - 2x² - x³ + 2x - x -4 - 5

               =  -x² - x³ + x - 9

x³ - 3x² + x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

V(x) - W(x) =

- x² + 2x - 4 - (- x³ + 2x² + x + 5) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= - x² + 2x - 4 + x³ - 2x² - x - 5 ← collect like terms

= x³ - 3x² + x - 9

  about 5.6 days

step-by-step explanation:

we can fill the given information into the decay equation and solve for the value of t at which half the sample remains.

the half-life is about 5.6 days.

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.
