<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • A) Correct. Linear.
  • B) Correct. Linear.
  • C) Incorrect. Nonlinear.
  • D) Incorrect. Linear.
  • E) Correct. Nonlinear.

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

Explanation:

A)

The product of a number n and 7 is the same as n*7 or 7*n or 7n

The number next to the variable implies multiplication, so we don't have to write the asterisk or multiplication symbol.

This expression is linear because the exponent is 1. Think of 7n as 7n^1

Or you could graph it out and you would get a straight line.

-------------------

B)

n = first number

n+1 = number right after number n

n+2 = number right after n+1

This shows we have 3 consecutive numbers

The sum of this leads to 3n+3 which is linear.

-------------------

C)

Tina needs to square 3n to get (3n)^2. So she forgot to square the 3

(3n)^2 is equivalent to 9n^2

Both of which are nonlinear. They graph out a curved parabola which isn't a straight line. The exponent being larger than 1 is another indication of a nonlinear expression.

-------------------

D)

The sum of a number and 8 can be represented by n+8 where n is the unknown number. Then sticking "twice" out front means we double all of n+8. So we double it to get 2(n+8) which is equivalent to 2n+16

Tina mistakenly only doubled the n and not the 8

2(n+8) and 2n+16 are both linear. It might help to think of it like y = 2x+16 and to graph that out to get a straight line.

-------------------

E) Tina is correct here in dividing n^3 over 2

This is nonlinear since the exponent is larger than 1. It graphs out a curved cubic, rather than a straight line.

How do you find the length of a diagonal right triangle ?
V125BC [204]
Unsure what you mean by diagonal right triangle

but if you wanted to find the hypothenuse (longest side) of a right triangle, you can apply pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2
where c is the hypothenuse
a and b are the other sides

What are the two ways you can find the distance between points (X1,Y1) and (x2,y2) in the coordinate
igomit [66]

The first (and most typical) way to find distance of two points is by using the distance formula.

distance=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2  }

One alternative is the Manhattan metric, also called the taxicab metric. This option is much more complicated, and rarely used in high school math. d(x,y)=∑i|xi-yi|

A collection of 19 coins consisting of nickels and dimes is worth $1.35. How many dimes are there
pshichka [43]

Answer:

There are 8 dimes there.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved used a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of nickels.

y is the number of dimes.

19 coins

This means that x + y = 19.

A nickel is worth $0.05. A dime is worth $0.1. The total of these coins is $1.35. So

0.05x + 0.1y = 1.35

How many dimes are there?

We have to find y.

From the first equation: x = 19 - y.

Replacing in the second:

0.05(19 - y) + 0.1y = 1.35

0.95 - 0.05y + 0.1y = 1.35

0.05y = 0.4

y = 0.4/0.05

y = 8

There are 8 dimes there.
