Answer:

  1 47/52 m ≈ 1.904 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance from the pivot to the smaller child. Then x-3 will be the distance to the larger child. The sum of moments about the origin (pivot point) will be zero:

  19x +33(x-3) = 0

  52x = 99 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 99

  x = 99/52 = 1 47/52

The smaller child is sitting 1 47/52 meters from the pivot point, about 1.904 m.

The above expression is not in its simplest form, and we need to simplify it, that is what asked in the question.

Given equation,

(9 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 7) + ( - 3 {x}^{2}  + 2)

First of all, let's open the parentheses to combine the like terms for simplifying.

9 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 7 - 3 {x}^{2}  + 2

Arranging the like terms, x² with x², x with x and constant terms near to each other.

9 {x}^{2}  - 3 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 7 + 2

Simplying further,

(9 - 3) {x}^{2}  - 3x + 9

6 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 9

So, the correct option is C

Find the measure of angle K.
BabaBlast [244]
Every triangle have three angles that add up to 180°. With this information, we can find out the missing angle.

The sum of three angles should add up to 180°. 

148° + 11° + K = 180°

Where k is the missing angle.

Solve for K.

Combine like terms.

148° + 11° + K = 180°
159° + K = 180°

Subtract both sides by 159°.

159° + K = 180°
159° - 159° + K = 180° - 159°
K = 21°

So, the missing length is 21°.
