15 because 3/4 is equivalent to 75% and 75% of 20 is 15.

The correct answer is 15 because 3/4 or 75% of 20 is 15


Hope this helps

Expand the following using the Binomial Theorem and Pascal’s triangle. (x + 2)6 (x − 4)4 (2x + 3)5 (2x − 3y)4 In the expansion o
ivolga24 [154]
\bf (2x+3)^5\implies 
\begin{array}{llll}
term&coefficient&value\\
-----&-----&-----\\
1&&(2x)^5(+3)^0\\
2&+5&(2x)^4(+3)^1\\
3&+10&(2x)^3(+3)^2\\
4&+10&(2x)^2(+3)^3\\
5&+5&(2x)^1(+3)^4\\
6&+1&(2x)^0(+3)^5
\end{array}

as you can see, the terms exponents, for the first term, starts at highest, 5 in this case, then every element it goes down by 1, till it gets to 0

for the second term, starts at 0, and every element it goes up by 1, till it gets to the highest

now, to get the coefficient, they way I get it, is "the product of the current coefficient and the exponent of the first term, divided by the exponent of the second term plus 1"

notice the first coefficient is always 1

so...how did we get 10 for the 3rd element?  well, 5*4/2
how did we get 10 for the fourth element?  well, 10*2/4


\bf (2x-3y)^4\implies 
\begin{array}{llll}
term&coefficient&value\\
-----&-----&-----\\
1&&(2x)^4(-3y)^0\\
2&+4&(2x)^3(-3y)^1\\
3&+6&(2x)^2(-3y)^2\\
4&+4&(2x)^1(-3y)^3\\
5&+1&(2x)^0(-3y)^4
\end{array}


\bf (3a+4b)^8\implies 
\begin{array}{llll}
term&coefficient&value\\
-----&-----&-----\\
1&&(3a)^8(+4b)^0\\
2&+8&(3a)^7(+4b)^1\\
3&+28&(3a)^6(+4b)^2\\
4&+56&(3a)^5(+4b)^3\\
5&+70&(3a)^4(+4b)^4\\
6&+56&(3a)^3(+4b)^5\\
7&+28&(3a)^2(+4b)^6\\
8&+8&(3a)^1(+4b)^7\\
9&+1&(3a)^0(+4b)^8
\end{array}

and from there, you can simplify the elements of the expansion by combining the coefficients

like for example, the 7th element of (3a+4b)⁸ will then be 1032192a²b⁶

Can someone help me with this math problem
Elis [28]

Answer:

C. Divide both sides of the equation by -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of the equation is to isolate x. In order to do that we have to remove the '-2' by doing the inverse operation. That is the opposite operation, for example addition and subtraction, multiplication and division.

Since x is being multiplied by -2, we do the inverse which is division.

Vijay has a collection of 50 number cubes that are each 1 cubic inch. He finds a box that is 4 inches high.He fits 12 cubes into
Lera25 [3.4K]

No, Vijay cannot fit all cubes into the box.

Solution:

Total number of cubes = 50

Volume of each cube = 1 cubic inch

Number of cubes fit in the bottom of the box = 12

Area of the box<em> = l</em> × <em>b</em> = 12 square inch

Height of the box = 4 inch

Volume of the box = <em> l</em> × <em>b </em>× h

                               = 12 × 4

Volume of the box = 48 cubic inch

So, 48 cubes can only fit in the box.

Hence, Vijay cannot fit 50 cubes into the box.
