3^4 and 3^-6
multiply, add, subtract?
Answer:
PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...
LP + PR = LR
This corresponds to the last choice.
_____
<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>
On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...
PL + LR = PR
The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...
LP + LR = PR
and by the commutative property, ...
LR + LP = PR.
Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.
Answer:
(2×3)¹
(11×1)¹
Step-by-step explanation:
2×3=6 so 2 to the power 1 is 2 and 3 to the power 1 is 3 so 2×3=6
11×1=11 so 11 to the power 1 is 11 and 1 to the power 1 is 1 so 11×1 =11
Answer:
30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance/speed
If x represents Jane's speed along the summit then her total exploration time is ...
12/x + 40/(x -5) = 2 . . . . . hours
Multiplying by (x)(x -5), we get ...
12(x -5) +40(x) = 2(x)(x -5)
Dividing by 2 and subtracting the left side gives ...
x^2 -31x +30 = 0
(x -30)(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions are x = 30 and x = 1, values of x that make the factors zero. A speed of 1 mph makes no sense in this problem, so ...
Jane's speed along the summit was 30 mph.
