Question
5x2 − 3(1 − x) − 2x(x + 5)
Which of the following polynomials is equivalent to the expression above?
- 3x2 − 7x − 3
- 3x2 + 7x − 3
- 5x2 − 5x − 3
- 5x2 − 9x − 3
The correct answer is: 3x2 − 7x − 3
5x2 – 3(1 - x) – 2x(x + 5)
5x2 – 3 + 3x – 2x2 – 10x
3x2 – 7x – 3

An instrument shows the number of revolutions per minute made by each tire of a car. In each revolution, the car travels a distance equal to the circumference of one of its tires. The circumference of each tire is equal to 2πr, where r is the radius of the tire.
Maria gets new tires for her car. The radius of each of her old tires is 0.30 meter, and the radius of each of her new tires is 11% larger than the radius of one of her old tires. What is the circumference of each new tire, to the nearest tenth of a meter?

A researcher is investigating the relationship between the price of a four-pack of AA batteries at a convenience store and the number of competitors the store has. She defines a store’s competitor as another similar store within a 1-mile radius of the store she selects. She selects 32 convenience stores across a state at random, and for each store, she records the number of its competitors and its price for a four-pack of AA batteries. The results are shown, along with the line of best fit, in the scatterplot below.

The line of best fit passes through the point (18, -0.12). Which of the following can be concluded from this?
