That statement is false

Both texting without looking or staring directly at the phones massively reduce the attention that the driver's brain put on the road.

Study shows that on average, any phones related activities reduce approximately around 37% of driver's attention from the road. Since accidents tend to occurs on split seconds, both drivers have a high chance in having an accident.

No
the answer is no because although you feel you have control as an experienced driver, a mere second can kill you

Find the values of k so that each remainder is three. 10. (x^2+ 5x + 7) = (x + k)

Goryan [66]

Answer:

$k=1\text{ or } k=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Polynomial Remainder Theorem. It states that if we divide a polynomial P(x) by a binomial in the form (x - a), then our remainder will be P(a).

We are dividing:

$(x^2+5x+7)\div(x+k)$

So, a polynomial by a binomial factor.

Our factor is (x + k) or (x - (-k)). Using the form (x - a), our a = -k.

We want our remainder to be 3. So, P(a)=P(-k)=3.

Therefore:

$(-k)^2+5(-k)+7=3$

Simplify:

$k^2-5k+7=3$

Solve for k. Subtract 3 from both sides:

$k^2-5k+4=0$

Factor:

$(k-1)(k-4)=0$

Zero Product Property:

$k-1=0\text{ or } k-4=0$

Solve:

$k=1\text{ or } k=4$

So, either of the two expressions:

$(x^2+5x+7)\div(x+1)\text{ or } (x^2+5x+7)\div(x+4)$

Will yield 3 as the remainder.

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

morpeh [17]

Answer:

This might not help but I know 10 to the power of 3 is 1000 and the answer might be 10×10×10. 10×10×10 is equal to 1000 and is the same as 10 to the power of 3.

Aiden wrote a riddle: Five less than 1/5 times a number is the same as the sume of the number and 1/3. Find the number.

Brrunno [24]

The number is -6.67

Solution:

Let "n" be the number

From given,

$\text{ Five less than 1/5 times a number } = \frac{1}{5}n - 5 = \frac{5}{n} - 5$

$\text{Sum of number and 1/3 } = n + \frac{1}{3} =\frac{3n+1}{3}$

Given that,

Five less than 1/5 times a number is the same as the sum of the number and 1/3

Therefore, we get,

$\frac{n}{5} - 5 = n + \frac{1}{3}\\\\Simplify\ the\ expression\\\\n - 25 = 5(n + \frac{1}{3})\\\\n - 25 = 5n + \frac{5}{3}\\\\n - 25 = \frac{15n + 5}{3}\\\\3n - 75 = 15n + 5\\\\12n = -80\\\\n = -6.67$

Thus the number is -6.67

-8(8v + 1) - 2 = -394

Bess [88]

Answer:

v = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for v:

-8 (8 v + 1) - 2 = -394

-8 (8 v + 1) = -64 v - 8:

-64 v - 8 - 2 = -394

Grouping like terms, -64 v - 8 - 2 = -64 v + (-8 - 2):

-64 v + (-8 - 2) = -394

-8 - 2 = -10:

-10 - 64 v = -394

Add 10 to both sides:

(10 - 10) - 64 v = 10 - 394

10 - 10 = 0:

-64 v = 10 - 394

10 - 394 = -384:

-64 v = -384

Divide both sides of -64 v = -384 by -64:

(-64 v)/(-64) = (-384)/(-64)

(-64)/(-64) = 1:

v = (-384)/(-64)

The gcd of -384 and -64 is -64, so (-384)/(-64) = (-64×6)/(-64×1) = (-64)/(-64)×6 = 6:

Answer: v = 6
