Hi!

When following the order of operations, A. Parantheses (or brackets) come first. =)

Answer:

A. Parentheses.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the operation that should be performed first for calculations involving more than one arithmetic operation.

We use order of operations (PEMDAS) to solve a problem involving more than one arithmetic operation.

P = Parenthesis,

E = Exponent,

M/D = Multiplication or Division (Left to right)

A/S = Addition or subtraction (Left to right)

Therefore, we should remove parenthesis first in calculations involving more than one arithmetic operation.

Dianna has 4 quarters, 3 dimes, and 3 nickels in her purse. She reaches into her purse and randomly grabs two coins, one at a ti

Galina-37 [17]

<span> At the beginning there are 3 dimes out of 10 coins:
P(first coin is a dime) = 3/10

After that there are 3 nickels out of 9 remaining coins:
P(second coin is a nickel) = 3/9 = 1/3

P(dime, then nickel) = P(first coin is a dime) x P(second coin is a nickel)
= 3/10 x 1/3
= 1/10

Answer:
1/10 . if im wrong im sorry </span>

Which point lies on a circle that is centered at A(-3, 2) and passes through B(1, 3)?

My name is Ann [436]

The equation of a circle:
$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$
(h,k) - the coordinates of the center
r - the radius

$\hbox{the center: } A(-3,2) \\
h=-3 \\ k=2 \\ \\
\hbox{the equation:} \\
(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=r^2 \\ \\
\hbox{the circle passes through B(1,3)} \\
x=1 \\ y=3 \\ \Downarrow \\
(1+3)^2+(3-2)^2=r^2 \\
4^2+1^2=r^2 \\
16+1=r^2 \\
17=r^2 \\ \\
\hbox{the equation is:} \\
(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=17$

Plug the coordinates of the points into the equation and check:
$C(-1,-2) \\
(-1+3)^2+(-2-2)^2=17 \\
2^2+(-4)^2=17 \\
4+16=17 \\
20=17 \\
not \ true \\ \\
D(-6,3) \\
(-6+3)^2+(3-2)^2=17 \\
(-3)^2+1^2=17 \\
9+1=17 \\
10=17 \\
not \ true$

$E(-3,-3) \\
(-3+3)^2+(-3-2)^2=17 \\
0^2+(-5)^2=17 \\
25=17 \\
not \ true \\ \\
F(-2,6) \\
(-2+3)^2+(6-2)^2=17 \\
1^2+4^2=17 \\
1+16=17 \\
17=17 \\
true$

The answer is F(-2,6).

In the expression (x2 + 3), the base is _____.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

x is the base in (x^2 + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is x because it is being raised to a square or to the 2nd power in (x^2 + 3). The base of an expression or exponent is always the number that is being raised to a power.
