Answer:

  a) the distributive property

  b) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The distributive property of multiplication over addition tells you ...

  a(b+c) = ab +ac

James has a=3, b=8, c=7, so he can fill in the values to get ...

  3(8+7) = 3·8 +3·7

Taking this one step into the evaluation, James gets ...

  3(3+7) = 3·8 +3·7 = 24 +21 . . . . . . the result James reports

___

b) Our result agrees with James' result, so we agree with James.

A student answered 86 problems on a test correctly and received a grade of 98%. How many problems were on the test, if all the p
balu736 [363]

Answer:

88 problems

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this problem up as fractions

86/x = 98/100

Cross multiply

86 × 100 = x × 98

8600 = 98x

Divide both sides by 98

87.75... = x

Round to nearest whole number

87.75 rounds up to 88

160% of what number 56?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

160% of 35 is 56.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{56}{y} :\frac{160}{100}

y · 160 = 56 · 100

160y = 5600

160y ÷ 160 = 5600 ÷ 160

y = 35

Find gradient and y-intercept of<br>Y=3x-5​
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Slope <em>m</em> (Gradient) = 3

y-intercept: (0, -5)

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

  • m - slope
  • b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

y = 3x - 5

<u>Step 2: Break function</u>

Slope <em>m</em> = 3

y-intercept <em>b</em> = -5

One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid. After a transformation, the vertex is located at (5, 0). Whi
madreJ [45]

Answer:

The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rotation of a point

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° anti-clock wise

∴ Its image is (-y , x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° clock wise

 (270° anti-clockwise or -90°)

∴ Its image is (y , -x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 180°

∴ Its image is (-x , -y)

* There is no difference between rotating 180° clockwise (-180°) or  

anti-clockwise (180°) around the origin

* Lets solve the problem

∵ One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid

∵ The image of the point after the transformation is (5 , 0)

- The coordinates are switched with each other

∴ There is no rotation with 180° or -180° because in the rotation with

 180° and -180° around the origin we change only the signs of the

 coordinates without switch them

∴ There is a rotation with 90° are 270° or -90°

- The zero has no sign

- When we rotate the point (0 , 5) by -90° or 270° around the origin

 we will change the sign of x-coordinate and switch the two

 coordinates

∴ The image of the point is (y , -x)

∵ x = 0 and y = 5

- There is no sign for zero, so we switch the coordinates only

∴ The vertex is located at (5, 0)

∴ The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)
