I need some help with this question:  The MoviePlex theater sold 1,456 tickets.  The theater sold 6 times as many regular price

tickets as it sold discount tickets.  Earl says that the expression 1456 divided by 6 give the number of discount tickets.  Is Earl correct?  If not, write the correct expression.  Explain your answer.

Earl isn't correct: the number 1,456 represents the total number of tickets sold, rather than simply six times the number of tickets sold.

Let x= the discount ticket price

1456 = 6x + x
1456 = 7x
x = 28

28 discount tickets were sold. The total number of tickets sold is equal to both the number of discount tickets sold plus six times that number: 1,456 = 6x+ x. Solve for x.

Which expressions are equivalent?
storchak [24]
The answer is A.) 3x-7y and -7y+3x
This is due to "3x" implies the value is positive, or "+3x", and -7y remains -7y.
So, we have 3x-7y and -7y+3x.

I hope this helps!

Let R(x)=3x^3+2x^2+x and S(x)=4+1. Find R(x) * S(x) <br><br> Pls help!!!!
Katarina [22]

3x^3 x 4x^2 = 12x^5

3x^3 x 1 = 3x^3

2x^2 x 4x^2 = 8x^4

2x^2 x 1 = 2x^2

1x x 4x^2 = 4x^3

1x x 1 = 1x

12x^5 + 3x^3 + 8x^4 + 2x^2 + 4x^3 + 1x

Simplify

12x^5 + 7x^3 + 8x^4 + 2x^2 + 1x

Thus, answer is B

Hope this helps!

What is the peremeter of this polygon? (With picture)
lyudmila [28]
Check the picture below.

so.. simply, use the distance formula, to get their length an add them up, and that's the perimeter of the polygon.


\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\&#10;\begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&({{ -1}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 4}})\\&#10;&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 4}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&({{ 3}}\quad ,&{{ -2}})\\&#10;&({{ 3}}\quad ,&{{ -2}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&({{ -2}}\quad ,&{{ -3}})\\&#10;&({{ -2}}\quad ,&{{ -3}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&({{ -1}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})&#10;\end{array}\qquad &#10;%  distance value&#10;d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{[2-(-1)]^2+(4-2)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(2+1)^2+(2)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{3^2+2^2}\implies \boxed{d=\sqrt{13}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{(3-2)^2+(-2-4)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{1^2+(-6)^2}\implies \boxed{d=\sqrt{37}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+[-3-(-2)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-3+2)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-1)^2}\implies \boxed{d=\sqrt{26}}

\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{[-1-(-2)]^2+[2-(-3)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-1+2)^2+(2+3)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{(1)^2+(5)^2}\implies \boxed{d=\sqrt{26}}

so, those are their lengths, sum them all up, that's the polygon's perimeter.
