Okay. 10^12 is 1 trillion. 1 trillion * 7 is 7 trillion. 14 trillion / 7 trillion is 2. The national debt in 2010 is two times larger than in 2003. So that basically means that the national debt doubled from 2003 to 2010.
27x^2-81x-9x+27 In this case, just in your mind multiply 27 (coefficient of x^2) by the constant value 27(the end value of the quadratic trinomial). Then find factors that give you the value -90 when you add and 729 (27*27) when you multiply.
Factorise the values
27x( x-3)-9(x-3)
Which will give you
(27x-9)(x-3)
Answer:
5. I agree with your answer choice.
6. 13.3
Step-by-step explanation:
5. You have m∠1 = 90° = m∠2, so it is reasonable to invoke the transitive property. (Step 4 would use "angles with the same measure are congruent" to complete the proof.)
6. The difference in x-coordinates is (4-1) = 3. The difference in y-coordinates is (22-9) = 13. By the Pythagorean theorem, the distance between the points is ...
... √(3² +13²) = √178 ≈ 13.342 ≈ 13.3
