mple mathematical work?
Given a+b-2(ab-a), I first apply the distributive property, which yields the expression a+b-2ab+2a. I can then collect like terms: since a+2a=3a, I have the expression 3a+b-2ab as my final answer

a) the student failed to properly apply the distributive property
b) the student collected two or more terms that were not like terms
c) the student failed to collect all like terms

Answer:

D- The mathematical work shown above is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a+b-2(ab-a),

Applying distributive property we get, a+b-2ab+2a

Now collecting the like terms we get, 3a+b-2ab as a+2a=3a

Now, we can see that the answer is correct and the student also did the right steps to get the answer.  

a+b-2(ab-a)=a+b-2ab+2a = 3a+b-2ab

Therefore, option D is correct.

What is the height, in inches, of a parallelogram that has a base of 3 feet and an area of 324 square inches?
AlekseyPX
The area of a parallelogram is just:

A=bh, we are given b=3ft, so b=36in and A=324in^2 so

324=36h  dividing both sides by 36

h=9

So the height is 9 inches.

solmaris [256]

Answer:

Yes they did.

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have the fraction 3/4 and 6/8. If you divide the fraction 6/8 by 2 you will get 3/4 since 6/8 is an unsimplifed form of 3/4.

angle 1 and an angle that measures 50° are supplementary another angle that measures 50 degrees and angle 3 are supplementary sh
MakcuM [25]

∠1 ≅∠3 = 130º

1) Gathering the data, accordingly to what's been told we can write:

∠1 + ∠50º = 180º <em>Definition of two supplementary angles</em>

∠50 +∠3 = 180º

2) Then we can evaluate:

∠1 + ∠50º = 180º <em>Subtract ∠50º from both sides</em>

∠1 = 180º -50º

∠1 = 130º

∠50 +∠3 = 180º

∠3 = 180º-50º

∠3 = 130º

3) Hence ∠1 ≅∠3 = 130º because the definition of supplementary angles is the same.

A school district has a student population of $6,734 students. If the maximum class size is 25 students. How many more teacher m
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

53 teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, what we need to do here is to find how many teachers there need to be, first. If there are 6,734 students in the school district and if maximum class size is 25, then the number of teachers needed is:

6,734 / 25 = 269.36

Of course, it's obvious that we can't have a decimal number of teachers, so we need to find integer (269 or 270).

If we take 269 teachers and 25 students per class, we get:

269 • 25 = 6,725 students, which is not enough, since there are 6,734 students.

That means that the number of teachers needed is 270.

It is given that there are already 217 teachers, meaning that 270-217=53 teachers have to be supplemented.
