“the product of 6 and 9 decreased by 8"

Mathematics

1 answer:

Komok [63]2 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

“the product of 6 and 9 decreased by 8"

“the product of 6 and 9" = 6 * 9

"decreased by 8" = - 8 (subtract 8 from whatever, in this case 6 * 9)

“the product of 6 and 9 decreased by 8" = 6 * 9 - 8 = 46

The population of California is approximately 38,040,000. The population of Texas is approximately 26.06 x 10^6 . The population

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

this is it

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of California is approximately 38,040,000. The population of Texas is approximately 26.06 x 106 . The population of New York State is approximately 1.96 x 107

38,040,000 = 3.804 x 107

26.06 x 106 = 2.606 x 107

Which state has the highest approximate population? Show work and/or Explain.

NY: 1.96 x 107 = 19,600,000

TX: 2.606 x 107 = 26,060,000

CA: 3.804 x 107 = 38,040,000

California has the highest approximate population.

Find the sum of the approximate population of California and New York State.

(3.804 x 107) + (1.96 x 107) = (3.804 +1.96) x 107 = 5.764 x 107

Find the difference in the approximate population of Texas and New York State.

(2.606 x 107) - (1.96 x 107) = 0.646 x 107 = 6.46 x 106

A number has only 1 factor pair. One of its factors is twice the other factor. What is the number? Explain.

Mrrafil [7]

<h3>Answer: 2</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

If a number only has one factor pair, then that number must be prime. This is because prime numbers only have factors of 1 and the number itself.

For instance, the value 7 is prime because the only factors of this are 1 and 7.

For something like the number 32, it is composite and not prime because it has the factors {1,2,4,8,16,32} and it leads to these three factor pairs: 1*32, 2*16, 4*8. This is one example showing why the answer isn't composite.

-----------

Let's say that p is the unknown prime we want to find. The factors of this are 1 and p. We're told that "one of the factors is twice the other factor", so that must mean p = 2*1 = 2. We can see that 2 is twice that of 1.

A triangle with an area of 60 square inches has a height that is 16 less than 6 times its base.

PtichkaEL [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a triangle

baseline × height / 2

in our case

baseline × height / 2 = 60 in²

height = 6×baseline - 16

baseline × (6×baseline - 16) / 2 = 60

baseline × (3×baseline - 8) = 60

3×baseline² - 8×baseline = 60

baseline = x

3x² - 8x - 60 = 0

general solution to a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 3

b = -8

c = -60

x = (8 ± sqrt(64 - 4×3×-60))/(2×3) =

= (8 ± sqrt(64 + 720))/6 = (8 ± sqrt(784))/6 =

= (8 ± 28)/6

x1 = (8 + 28)/6 = 36/6 = 6

x2 = (8 - 28)/6 = -20/6 = -10/3

x2 as a negative number is not a valid solution for a length in a geometric shape.

so, x = 6 in is our solution for the baseline.

height = 6x - 16 = 6×6 - 16 = 36 - 16 = 20 in

base = 6 in
