Hey there!

3(4 - 6) = 12 - 18

3(4) + 3(-6) = 12 - 18

12 - 18 = 12 - 18

Based on the operation we had to do was: DISTRIBUTE 3 within in the parentheses on the first half of the equation because it should be able to breakdown your whole entire equation to “easier” terms. If it were an order of operation/PEMDAS equation you would have to do what’s inside of the parentheses first because that’s what “P” stands for in PEMDAS.

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither. u = <6, -2>, v = <8, 24>

Leno4ka [110]

Because 6 * 8 + ( - 2 )* 24 = 48 - 48 = 0 , the vectora u and v are orthogonal ;
Two vectors are orthogonal if their dot product is zero.

There are 250 votes tallied in a school election with 3 candidate:A, Candidate B, and Candidate C. If 150 of the votes are for c

Tanya [424]

The answer is 75 and here's why.

Let's figure out the amount of remaining votes to prove this.

250 total votes - 150 votes for candidate a = 100 votes.

minus ↑ sign

Candidate B received 25% of the votes, so let's find 25% of 100

100 * 0.25 = 25 votes

Candidate B only got 25 votes (that's kinda sad, poor guy)

100 - 25 votes = the # of votes candidate C got

Candidate C got 75 votes!

At a grocery store, the price of a watermelon is determined by how many pounds the watermelon weighs. The price of a watermelon

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

$p=0.60w$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

p ----> the price of a watermelon in dollars

w ---> the weight of a watermelon in pounds

In this problem we have a proportional relationship

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem

$p=kw$

The value of the constant of proportionality k is the same that the unit rate

Find out the unit rate

Divide the total cost by the total weight

$k=\frac{4.38}{7.3}=\$0.60\ per\ pound$

substitute in the equation

$p=0.60w$

What is the measure of ∠X? 69° 111° 180° 21°

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The angle measure is 111 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite angles confined within a circle and a square will be equal to 180. In this case, since angle Z is equal to 69, angle x is 180.
