help with either of these questions pleaseee at least one of them I’m so confused rn I’d really appreciate it and will brainlist you dw

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Fred → 35 years old

James → J years old

(3 × J) - 1 = 35

3J - 1 = 35

b) the number of people (n) Anita can invite depends on her age (A) and you add (+) 2.

therefore, n= A +2

2.a) n represents the no of phones he sells.

so if he charges $10 for a phone, then

n × 10 will represent the amount of money he makes for the no of phones he sells. you are given that P represents the amount of money he makes from selling a phone which is 10N and also his weekly salary, $ 250. this is the amount of money he receives for the whole week.

Hence, 10n + 250 = P

ans: P= 10n + 250

b) the next week he sells 20 phones. he charges $10 per phone. then he will make $200 from selling the phones. but he will also receive his weekly salary, which is $250. total money he receives equals $450.

a better way to reach the answer is using the above equation:

P = 10n + 250, where n= 20

P= (10*20) + 250

P= $450

hope you understand this now,

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)
