Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question:

Play 1: Quarterback was sacked for a loss of 4 yards

Play 2 : Another loss of 10 yards

Play 3: a gain of 12 yards

Write an addition expression to represent the situation. Then find the sum and explain its meaning.

A loss of 4 yards = - 4

Loss of 10 yards = - 10

Gain of 12 yards = + 12

Addition expression for the scenario :

(-4) + (-10) + 12

Result :

-4 + (-10) + 12

= - 4 - 10 + 12

= - 14 + 12

= - 2

Hence, after two consecutive losses of 4 and 10 yards, the team wins 12 yards on the third play and the aggregate yards lost is reduced to 2 yards.

In a right angle,the altitude to a 6ft hypotenuse.Find the length of the altitude and each leg.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:a=3.6 and b=4.8

Step-by-step explanation:(a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2)

Where c is hypotenuse is equal to 6. A right triangle is also known as a 3,4,5 triangle where the 2 legs are 3 and 4 and hypotenuse is 5. Find the factor in size difference by dividing your hypotenuse of 6 by the hypotenuse of 5 you get 1.2. Now multiply the 3 and 4 by 1 2 to get your answers of 3.6 and 4.8.

To check work simply plug in your legs as a and b

(3.6^2)+(4.8^2)=(6^2)

(12.96)+(23.04)=(36)

Help please!! i don’t understand this one!
12345 [234]

Answer:

  C, D

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation can be solved any of several ways. One that doesn't require much thought is using the quadratic formula.

For ax² +bx +c = 0, the solutions are ...

  x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

In the given equation, a=2, b=11, c=5, so this becomes ...

  x=\dfrac{-11\pm\sqrt{11^2-4\cdot2\cdot5}}{2\cdot2}=\dfrac{-11\pm\sqrt{81}}{4}\\\\x=\dfrac{-11\pm9}{4}=\left\{-\dfrac{20}{4},-\dfrac{2}{4}\right\}=\{-5,-\frac{1}{2}\}

The solutions are ...

  C. x = -5

  D. x = -1/2

_____

My personal favorite is using a graphing calculator. The solutions are the x-intercepts of the expression on the left. That is, where its value is zero, as the equation says.

Please help me :( A standard six-sided die is rolled. What is the probability that it is not a 4?
zmey [24]

Answer:

The answer is 5/6, or .833, 3 repeated.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 4 is only one side of the die, or 1/6 if the surface of the die. So the other part that is left is the other 5/6 of the surface.
