Well, that's incorrect because according to the Order of Operation [GEMS\BOMDAS\PEMDAS etc.], that -7 has to be distributed amongst all the other terms in parentheses. Besides, you did the wrong operation when you inserted that subtraction symbol in substitution of the parentheses, which means to MULTIPLY. So, the order goes as follows:
12 - 7[72]
-504 + 12 = -492 [OR 12 - 504]
-492 is your answer. You get it now?
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is 2/5 and the slope of the new line will be -5/2 because the negative reciprocal creates a perpendicular line. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.
(y--2)=-5/2(x-2)
y+2=-5/2x+10/2
y=-5/2x+5-2
y= -5/2x+3
Answer:
36 ft by 16 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, you need to find dimensions of a rectangle such that the perimeter is 104 ft and the area is 576 ft. The perimeter is twice the sum of length and width, so the sum of length and width is 52 ft.
The area is the product of length and width, so if w represents the width, we have ...
w(52 -w) = 576
w² -52w = -576 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, multiply by -1
w² -52w +26² = 26² -576 . . . . . . complete the square
(w -26)² = 676 -576 = 100
w = 26 ±√100 = {16, 36}
If the width is the short dimension, it is 16 feet. Then the length is 36 feet.
