Answer:
17.83in
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 15 a = athena, s = samantha, b = bonus points
s = b + a
s = b + 15
<span>for that, what you need is a calculator... like say a TI(texas instruments) 83 or 83plus or higher, will do regressions, if you have an android device like a phone or tablet, you can also get an app from the play store "Andie's graph", is a TI calculator emulator, it works just like the calculator itself, you'd only need the ROM
</span><span>that said, you can also use some online calculators for that.
</span>
<span>I could give you a direct link to one, but this site has issues with links, if you do a quick search in google for "keisan exponential regression calculator", it should be the first link, is from the Casio site.
</span>
<span>you could do regressions in a spreadsheet as well.... you could check online for an "addin" or "extension", if you use MS Excel, pretty sure there are some addins for regressions.
</span>
if I recall correctly, Excel does regressions natively, but the addins are just frontends, is all, just some added interfacing.
anyhow, if you have an Android device Andie Graph works peachy, I have an 83plus, 84, 86 in it, they all work just like my old TI83plus.
there's also an app in the play store called Graph89, is an emulator for a TI89, the same you need a tiny little file, and texas instruments provides them, have also, works peachy too.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, but like they say in Vegas, you're trying to make your point the hard way.
8 * (8 - 4) So the distributive property is means remove the brackets.
8*8 - 4*8 What you have done is multiply the numbers on either side of the - sign by 8. It is a good practice NOT to destroy the minus sign just yet.
64 - 32
32 The answer is 32. That's how the distributive property works
With this question only It might be easier to do what is inside the brackets first. That's making your point the easy way.
8*(8-4) = 8* 4 = 32
