960 x 3 = 2880

18/24 = 0.75

960x 0.75 = 720

2880 + 720 = 3600

Okay. Let's explain this. 960 per day. So let's start simple: 3 days and 960 per day is basically 2880 total watt-hours. Then we must do the 18 hours. How? We must multiply it the same way we did with the whole days. So we recognize that 18 hours is 18/24 hours in a day which is simplified: 18/24, 9/12, 3/4. So basically 18 hours is 3/4 of a day. So then we must multiply it by 3/4 of 960. So 960 x 3 = 2880, 2880 / 4 = 720. So then we must add them all up: 2880 + 720 = 3600 watt-hours in 3 days and 18 hours.

How would you write 2.11 as a fraction in simplest form

Anni [7]

So,

2.11 can be written as 2 and 11 hundredths, or $2 \frac{11}{100}$ .

$2 \frac{11}{100}$ is in simplest form.

What is the value of the function when x =2

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

To make this easier, first draw or imagine a vertical line at x=2

Find where the vertical line and the graph intersects.

Draw or imagine that point of intersection.

Now, draw or imagine a horizontal line that goes through the point of intersection.

That horizontal line tells us the the value of the function by passing through that mark that says "-2"

The function's value at x=2 is -2.

Have an awesome day! :)

The partial factorization of x2 – 3x – 10 is modeled with algebra tiles. Which unit tiles are needed to complete the factorizati

baherus [9]

X² - 3x - 10

x² = x * x
10 can be factored:
1 x 10 ⇒⇒⇒ difference between factors = 9
2 x 5   ⇒⇒⇒ difference between factors = 3 ⇒ (The correct pair)

(x-5)(x+2) = x(x+2) - 5(x+2)
                 = x² + 2x - 5x - 10
                 = x² - 3x - 10

∴ x - 5 = 0 ⇒⇒⇒ x = 5
   x + 2 = 0 ⇒⇒⇒ x = -2
