Answer:

  1/6x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

"Simplify" generally means, "eliminate parentheses and combine like terms." In general, parentheses are eliminated by making use of the distributive property.

__

  \dfrac{2}{3}x-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x+1\right)=\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{1}{2}x-1=\left(\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)x-1\\\\=\left(\dfrac{4}{6}-\dfrac{3}{6}\right)x-1=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{6}x-1}

The 2 main support rods for a barbeque grill are each 7.5 cm from the centre of the
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

  58.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of each support rod can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The geometry can be modeled by a right triangle, such that the distance from centre is one leg and half the length of the rod is the other leg of a triangle with hypotenuse equal to the radius of the grill.

__

<h3>Pythagorean theorem</h3>

The theorem tells us that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is the square of the hypotenuse. For legs a, b and hypotenuse c, this is ...

  c² = a² +b²

<h3>application</h3>

For the geometry of the grill, we can define a=7.5 and c=30. Then b will be half the length of the support rod.

  30² = 7.5 +b²

  b² = 900 -56.25 = 843.75

  b = √843.75 ≈ 29.0473

The length of each support rod is twice this value, so ...

  rod length = 2b = 2(29.0473) = 58.0947

Each support rod is about 58.1 cm long.

How many significant figures are in the measured value 550,000,000?
NikAS [45]

There are 2 significant figures (sig figs) which are the two '5' digits. The zeros aren't considered sig figs because we can write the number as 5.5 * 10^8 to represent the exact same idea. The 0's are simply placeholders to tell how big the number is, not necessarily how accurate it is. If the 0s were between the decimal point and a nonzero value, then the 0s would be significant. If the 0s were to the right of the decimal, then they would be significant.

Answer: 2

What is negative 7/10 minus 2/5
Dmitriy789 [7]

The answer you are looking for is -11/10 or - 1 1/10.

To find this answer you must first make the denominators the same. To do this, multiply 2/5 by 2/2 to get 4/10. Finally, subtract the two fractions, keeping in mind the denominators stay the same. -7/10 - 4/10 = -11/10 or - 1 1/10.

I hope this helps!
