Answer:

The fraction of students who likes soccer or basketball is 7/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have two groups of students, the group a is the one that prefers soccer, while the second group is the one that prefers basketball. We then need to find the fraction that represents the students that are in either group, in these cases we need to take the fractions of each group and sum them. So we have:

soccer OR basketball = soccer + basketball

soccer OR basketball = 2/5 + 3/10

Through LMC we have:

soccer OR basketball = (2*2 + 3)/10 = (4 + 3)/10 = 7/10

The fraction of students who likes soccer or basketball is 7/10.

Anton [14]

Answer:

\large\boxed{25x^2-65x-30=5(x+3)(5x-2)}

Step-by-step explanation:

25x^2-65x-30=5(5x^2-13x-6)\\\\=5(5x^2-15x+2x-6)=5\bigg(5x(x-3)+2(x-3)\bigg)\\\\=5(x-3)(5x+2)

f(x)=13|x-5|-6 is the equation represented by all the operations.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The given function is

f(x)=|x|

It is vertically compressed by a factor of 13 then the function becomes,

f(x)=13|x|

It shifted down 6 units, then the function becomes,

\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x})=\mathbf{1 3}|\boldsymbol{x}|-\boldsymbol{6}

It shifted right by 5 units then the function becomes,

f(x)=13|x-5|-6

Thus the resultant equation thus obtained is  f(x)=13|x-5|-6

And also I don’t understand this cuz it’s so confusing when my teacher does is it like she shows us examples but I forgot how to
ziro4ka [17]
In order to solve the equation solve for the area of the square and then the area of each of the triangles. For the first one the squares area is 256 while the triangles area is 136. Because there is four triangles multiply 136 by four which is 544. Add 256 and 544 to get the final answer of 800
