Let's consider each of the option

5(x-6)

5 times the difference of a number x and 6

This could be written in another way

5(6-x)

Just that one would be a positive difference and the other would be a negative difference..

The last option would have been correct but if we're to consider pedmas.. The last option is suggesting "the difference of 5 times a number and 6" which is not what the question dictates...

The penultimate option is suggesting "6 times the difference between a number and 5"

And the second option is completely astray........

Hope this helped......

What is the total cost of a $12.60 item plus 7% sales tax?
Ulleksa [173]
To take a percent, move the decimal point of the percent two places to the left. 7% = 0.07

Then multiply:

12.60 • 0.07 = 0.88

12.60 + 0.88 = 13.48

The total cost is: $13.48

Ax + c = R (solve for x)
sp2606 [1]
Ax + c = R     (subtract c from each side)

Ax + c - c = R - c

Ax = R - c     (divide A from each side)

Ax/A = (R-c)/A

x = \frac{R-c}{A}  <-answer

Write the equation of the circle whose center is (-5, -8) with diameter 12
lora16 [44]

Answer:

(x + 5)^2 + (y + 8)^2 = 6^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle formula: (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

We are given diameter. To find the radius divide diameter by 2.

d = 12

12/2 = r = 6

H and K are given to be (-5 , -8)

(x - (-5))^2 + (y - (-8))^2 = 6^2

(x + 5)^2 + (y + 8)^2 = 6^2

I have plot this equation to confirm my answer is correct where the origin is (-5 , -8) and has a radius of 6.

The diagram shows the cross-section of a wall of a cinema. It has to be painted. Work out the area that needs to be painted.
mestny [16]

Answer:

Area = 370 m²

Cost to paint = £105

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the wall of a cinema hall = Area of a trapezoid (1)+ Area of a rectangle (2) + Area of a trapezoid (3)

Area of a trapezoid = \frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h

where b_1 and b_2 are the parallel sides and h is the distance between these sides.

Area of trapezoid (1) = \frac{1}{2}(11+12)\times 6

                                  = 69 m²

Area of the rectangle (2) = Length × Width

                                         = 12 × 15

                                         = 180 m²

Area of the trapezoid (3) = \frac{1}{2}(12+10)\times 11

                                         = 121 m²

Now area of the wall = 69 + 180 + 121

                                   = 370 m²

One tin covers the area = 25 m²

Number of tins required to paint the wall = \frac{\text{Total area}}{\text{Area covered by one tin}}

= \frac{370}{25}

= 14.8

Therefore, number of tins to be purchased = 15

Cost to paint the complete wall = 15 × £7

                                                       = £105
