Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the variable

Let the number Max is thinking of be represented by the variable \( x \).

Step 2: Add 8 to the variable

Max adds 8 to his number, so the expression becomes \( x + 8 \).

Step 3: Double the sum

Max then doubles the sum, so the final expression is \( 2(x + 8) \).

Final Answer

The expression to represent Max's number is \( 2(x + 8) \).

Unit Converstions A factor is a fraction or factor written so that the denominator and numerator are equivalent values with different units. One of the most useful conversion factors allows the user to convert from the imperial system to and vice versa. Since 1 inch is exactly the same length as 2.54 cm, the factor may be expressed as: These two lengths are identical so multiplication of a given length by the conversion factor will not change the length. It will simply express it in a different unit. Now if you wish to determine how many centimetres are in a yard, you have two things to consider. First, which of the two forms of the conversion factor will allow you to the imperial unit, converting it to a metric unit?

One who is exercising should not exceed his or her maximum heart rate, which is determined basis of that person's gender, age, and resting heart rate. The table relates resting heart rate ximum heart rate for a 20-year-old man. Use a graphing calculator to model the data with a linear function. Estimate the maximum heart rate if the resting heart rate is 42, 62, 74, and 82. What is the correlation coefficient? How confident are you about using the regression line to estimate function values? Resting Heart Rate, H (in beats per minute) Maximum Heart Rate, M (in beats per minute) 50 160 60 160 70 160 80 170 The linear function that best models the data is M=0.3 H+148. The estimated maximum heart rate for the resting heart rate of 42 is beats per minute.
