The function f(x) = –(x – 3)2 + 9 can be used to represent the area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 12 units, as a function of the length of the rectangle, x. What is the maximum area of the rectangle? 3 square units
6 square units
9 square units
12 square units

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.

answer: (1,3) (3,-1) (5,-5) ?

step-by-step explanation:

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
