When you see an equation with parenthesis around it, you can use this:

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

Otherwise known as PEMDAS.

We can see that in the equation, there are parenthesis, so we can open those. We open parenthesis by taking the number right next to the parenthesis (or outside the parenthesis) and we multiply that number by everything inside. So this is what it would look like:

-2x^2 - 10x + 8

See how the signs changed? This rule only applies when you multiply something, but here is how I think of it:

+ and + always equals +.

- and - always equals +.

- and + always equals -.

+ and - always equals -.

So that's it! Just to be clear, the answer is:

-2x^2 - 10x + 8

Hope I helped, sorry if I'm wrong!

This is a calculus question.
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

2 cm^2/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

side of cube ---- x cm

volume = x^3

d(volume)/dt = 3x^2 dx/dt

when c = 20, d(volume)/dt = 10 cm^3/sec

10 = 3(20^2) dx/dt

dx/dt = 10/1200 = 1/120 cm/sec

Surface area = SA = 6x^2

d(SA)/dt = 12x dx/dt

so when x = 20, as above

d(SA)/dt = 12(20)(1/120) cm^2/sec

= 2 cm^2/sec

What are the lengths of line segments AB and BC?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

AB = 10 and BC = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, thus

AB = DC, that is

3y - 2 = y + 6 ( subtract y from both sides )

2y - 2 = 6 ( add 2 to both sides )

2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 4

Hence AB = 3y - 2 = (3 × 4) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10

And

AD = BC, that is

2x - 4 = x + 12 ( subtract x from both sides )

x - 4 = 12 ( add 4 to both sides )

x = 16

Hence BC = x + 12 = 16 + 12 = 28

The height of a radio tower is 400 ​feet, and the ground on one side of the tower slopes upward at an angle of 10degrees. ​(a) H
Anettt [7]

Answer:

  (a)  412 ft

  (b)  276 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the attached diagram.

(a) The internal angle of triangle RBT at B is 90° -10° = 80°. Since we know lengths RB and BT, we can find the length RT using the law of cosines:

  RT² = RB² +BT² -2·RB·BT·cos(80°) = 190² +400² -2·190·400·cos(80°)

  RT² ≈ 169,705.477

  RT ≈ √169,705.477 ≈ 411.95

The guy wire to the hillside should be about 412 feet long.

__

(b) The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the shorter wire length.

  LM² = LB² +MB²

  LM = √(190² +200²) = √76,100

  LM ≈ 275.86

The guy wire to the flat side should be about 276 feet long.
