Answer:
D. -17/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 - 4 (1/2 + 1)^2
First we evaluate what is inside the parentheses
1/2 - 4 (3/2) ^2
Now we square what is inside the parentheses
1/2 - 4(9/4)
Now multiply
1/2 -9
Get a common denominator 9 = 9 *2/2 = 18/2
1/2 - 18/2
-17/2
Answer:
Answer: 5/9 as a decimal is 0.556.
Answer:
2.875 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
A scale factor (SF) is the ratio of two corresponding lengths in similar figures.
SF = actual distance/map distance = 5.75 mi/2 in
or 1 in = 2.875 mi
On the map, the distance from the library to the park is 1 in, so the actual distance is 2.875 mi.
<em> x₁ = - 1</em>
<em> x₂ = 2</em>
- Step-by-step explanation:
<em>2²ˣ⁺¹ - 9ₓ2ˣ + 4 = 0</em>
<em>2²ˣₓ2 - 9ₓ2ˣ + 4 = 0</em>
<em>2ˣ = n</em>
<em>2n² - 9n + 4 = 0</em>
<em>2n² - n - 8n + 4 = 0</em>
<em>n(2n - 1) - 4(2n - 1) = 0</em>
<em>(2n - 1)(n -4) = 0</em>
<em>2n - 1 = 0 => n₁ = 1/2</em>
<em>n - 4 = 0 => n₂ = 4</em>
<em />
<em>2ˣ = 1/2 => 2ˣ = 2⁻¹ => x₁ = - 1</em>
<em>2ˣ = 4 => 2ˣ = 2² => x₂ = 2</em>
