6 * scale factor = 120
6x = 120
x = 120/6
x = 20 <== the scale factor

60 inches would be the correct answer because 6 times 60 is equal to 120

You want to go to the skate park, and you have two options:

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Define the variables</u>

Let the entry fee be c and the hourly rate be m

Let the number of hours be x and the total amount be y

<u>Work to solve</u>

For Sami's skate

$c = 6$ and $m = 2$

For Brad's skate

$c =10$ and $m = 1$

<u>The equations</u>

The equation is derived using: $y = mx + c$

For Sami's skate

$y = 2x + 6$

For Brad's skate

$y = x + 10$

<u>When the cost are the same</u>

To do this, we equate both expressions

i.e.

$y = y$

$2x + 6 = x + 10$

$2x -x = 10 - 6$

$x = 4$

i.e. the cost are the same at the 4th hour

<u>What is the cost</u>

Substitute 4 for x in any of the equations

$y = x + 10$

$y = 4 + 10$

$y = 14$

<em>The cost is $14.00</em>

Use the remainder theorem to find P(−2) for P(x) = 2x^4+2x^3−2x-4

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:P(2) = 2(2)³ - 2(2)²- 3

= 16 - 8 - 3

= 5

Remainder or value of P(2) = 5

Quotient = (2x³- 2x² - 3)/ x-2 = 2x² + 2x + 4

(x-yi)(3+5i) is the conjugate of 6+24i

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

x=-3

y=3

(-3-3i)(3+5i)

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x-yi)(3+5i)\\=3x+5xi-3yi+5y\\=(3x+5y)+(5x-3y)i\\$

and we have that must equal

6-24i

3x+5y=6

5x-3y=-24 and if we work it we found out that the solutions are

x=-3 and

y=3
