If each person eats 3/8 lbs of roast beef, 3/8 x 5 = 15/8. Simplify that down, you need 1 and 7/8 lbs of roast beef.

Which strategy would you choose to expand (x+11)(2x+3) and write an equivalent expression
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (x+11)(2x+3)

We want to expand it and write equivalent expression

Generally if we want to expand an expression we will take one of the expression in one bracket and multiply with the other bracket and then take the other expression and multiply it with the other

E.g, (a+b) × (c + d)

Then, we take a × (c+d) and also b × (c+d)

We can do it the other way round too and it will give the same results.

So, applying this to the given expression

(x+11)(2x+3)

x(2x+3) + 11(2x+3)

2x² + 3x + 22x + 33

2x² + 25x + 33

Then, the equivalent expression is 2x² + 25x + 33

(x + 11)(2x + 3) = 2x² + 25x + 33

Line j has an equation of y - 8 = -2/3(x+5). Line K is perpendicular to line j and passes + through (-6, -2). What is the equati
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line

y - 8 = - \frac{2}{3} (x + 5) ← is in point- slope form

with m = - \frac{2}{3}

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{2}{3} } = \frac{3}{2}

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept ) , then

y = \frac{3}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 6, - 2 ) into the partial equation

- 2 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 2 + 9 = 7

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 7 ← equation of line K
