The value of the expression (-4x - 4) + (-4x - 10) is -8x - 14

<h3>What are expressions?</h3>

Expressions are mathematical statements that are represented by variables, coefficients and operators

<h3>How to determine the value of the expression?</h3>

The expression is given as

The sum of (-4x - 4) and (-4x - 10)

This can be represented as

(-4x - 4) + (-4x - 10)

Remove the bracket

So, we have

(-4x - 4) + (-4x - 10) = -4x - 4 - 4x - 10

Collect the like terms

So, we have

(-4x - 4) + (-4x - 10) = -4x - 4x - 4 - 10

Evaluate the like terms

So, we have

(-4x - 4) + (-4x - 10) = -8x - 14

Hence, the value of the expression (-4x - 4) + (-4x - 10) is -8x - 14

The flight of a cannonball toward a hill is described by the parabola y = 2 + 0.12x - 0.002x 2 . the hill slopes upward along a

Alexandra [31]

To find where on the hill the canonball lands
So 0.15x = 2 + 0.12x - 0.002x^2
Taking the LHS expression to the right and rearranging we have -0.002x^2 + 0.12x -
0.15x + 2 = 0.
So we have -0.002x^2 - 0.03x + 2 = 0
I'll multiply through by -1 so we have
0.002x^2 + 0.03x -2 = 0.
This is a quadratic eqn with two solutions x1 = 25 and x2 = -40 since x cannot be negative x = 25. The second solution y = 0.15 * 25 = 3.75

Answer:

1/5^7 (the last one)

Step-by-step explanation:

sladkih [1.3K]

Well, you have to read 10 1/2 pages and you have read 1/3 so ask your self...Self what is 1/3 of 10 1/2 pages. The key word of tells you to multiply the two numbers to find the answer. So $10\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{2} = 3.5 pages$
