(1\3)(6 + 3 + x) = 9
9+x = 27
X = 18

Check
27-6= 21
21-3= 18
18-x = 9
9 on comic books
$9 left
27(1)3= 9 and he spent $9 on comic books
Started with $27

Expand (3 - 2x)6. What is the coefficient of the sixth term?
stich3 [128]
To expand (3 - 2x)^6 use the binomial theorem:

(x + y)^ n = C(n,0) x^ny^0 + C(n,1)x^(n-1) y + C(n,2)x^(n-2) y^2 + ...+ C(n,n+1)xy^(n-1) + C(n,n)x^0y^n


So, for x = 3, y = -2x , and n = 6 you get:

(3 - 2x) ^6 = C(6,0)(3)^6 + C(6,1)(3)^5 (-2x) + C(6,2) (3)^4 (-2x)^3 + C(6,3) (3^3) (-2x)^4 + C(6,4)(3)^2 (-2x)^4 + C(6,5) (3) (-2x)^5 + C(6,6) (-2x)^6

So, the sixth term is C(6,5)(3)(-2x)^5 =  6! / [5! (6-5)! ] * 3 * (-2)^5 x^5 = - 6*3*32 = - 576 x^5.

The coefficient of that term is - 576.

Answer: - 576

The gestation period of rhinos ​(487 ​days) is​ _____ percent longer than the gestation period of bears ​(220 ​days).
Talja [164]

Answer:

The gestation period of rhinos ​(487 ​days) is​ 121. 3 percent longer than the gestation period of bears ​(220 ​days).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gestation period of rhinos = 487  ​days

Gestation period  of bears = 220 ​days

To Find:

Percentage increase = ?

Solution:

The percentage increase =\frac{ \text{new value} - \text{final value} }{\text{final value}} \times 100

On substituting the  values,

= \frac{ 487 - 220}{220}\times 100

=\frac{267}{220}\times 100

=>1.213 \times 100

=> 121.3 %
