The answer is: [D]: "Subtract 5 from 10" .
____________________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________
Use the correct order of operations, according to the mnemonic:
"PE MD AS".

The "P" stands for "parentheses", which takes top (first priority); and there are values in parentheses in this expression—specifically, the "(10 - 5)" . So the first step is to "subtract 5 from 10" —which is: "Answer choice: [D]".
Your error was starting at the beginning of the problem; and not using the "order of operations".

I need help Evaluate functions from their graph

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

$g(7)=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We look for where $x=7$ . The way you find the answer is first, find the point $(0, 7)$ . Draw a line straight up and down, and see where that line intersects the function. Those intersection points are your answer(there will always be only 1 for a function, but if a graph isn't a function, there might be more than 1).

Using this method here, we see that $g(7)$ intersects our line at $(7, 4)$ , so $g(7)=4$ .

A company has 8 mechanics and 6 electricians. If an employee is selected at random, what is the probability that they are an ele

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

$Probability = \frac{3}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Electrician = 6

Mechanic = 8

Required

Determine the probability of selecting an electrician

First, we need the total number of employees;

$Total = n(Electrician) + n(Mechanic)$

$Total = 6 + 8$

$Total = 14$

Next, is to determine the required probability using the following formula;

$Probability = \frac{n(Electrician)}{Total}$

$Probability = \frac{6}{14}$

Divide numerator and denominator by 2

$Probability = \frac{3}{7}$

Hence, the probability of selecting an electrician is 3/7

Answer:

1. C. Yes, because a sum of cubes can be factored

2a. false

2b. false

2c. true

2d. false (based on what is written in the equation; refer to step-by-step)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Both 3 and 8 can be cubed, which is why x^3+8 can be factored (x+2)(x^2-2x+4)

2a. a^2-b^2 can be factored by the perfect square rule, so it should be (a-b)^2

2b. both terms are perfect squares, so you can factor, making it (a+b)(a-b)

2c. You can factor using the perfect square rule, making it (a+b)^2

2d. Most of what is in the equation is true, yet the correct solution would be (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was to . If there were 12,7

Sever21 [200]

Answer: The question is incomplete

Step-by-step explanation: The answer to this question cannot be determined correctly since an important detail is missing.

However, let me explain how you would normally go about it by using an example of mine. If for example the ratio of yes votes to no votes was 8 to 5, and the question requires you to calculate how many yes votes were there as indicated in your question, then the first step would be to find the total number of both sides of the ratio. That is add 8 to 5 which gives you 13. This means if there was a total of 13 votes cast, every yes vote stands for 8 out of 13 votes and every no vote stands for 5 out of 13 votes.

To express it mathematically, every yes vote would be 8/13 of the total (12779) and every no vote would be 5/13 of the total (12779).

Therefore to determine how many yes votes there was, is calculated as follows;

Let yes votes be y and no votes be x'

y = (8/13) * 12779

y = 102232/13

y = 7864

Based on my example that the ratio of yes votes to no votes is 8 to 5,

Then the number of yes votes was 7,864.
