Answer:

16 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total distance of the trip = 72 miles

They have decided to stop half way their trip i.e. they will stop at a distance \frac{72}{2} =36 miles from the starting point.

Also, given that they have already traveled for 20 miles.

To find:

How much farther do they need to drive before they stop for dinner?

Solution:

Distance already covered = 20 miles

Distance to be covered before stopping for dinner = 36 miles

Distance to be covered more = Total distance to be covered before stopping - Distance already covered

\Rightarrow 36-20 =\bold{16\ miles}

What is the common denominator for 1/5 2/3 5/8?
SpyIntel [72]
To find the common denominator first find a number that goes into all the denominators;
the LCM of 5, 3, 8 = 120
so your new fractions with the same denominator are;
24/120, 80/120, 75/120

For what value of k, -4 is a zero of polynomial x2-x-(2k+2)?
bekas [8.4K]
Hmm
well, um
if -4 is  a zero then if we subsitute -4 for x, we should get 0

so
0=(-4)²-(-4)-(2k+2)
0=16+4-2k-2
0=18-2k
2k=18
divide by 2
k=9

k=9
the value k is 9

Find the 7th term of the expansion of (3c + 2d)^9.
defon

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pascal's triangle, the expansion, although EXTREMELY lengthy, will help you find the 7th term.  I am going to type out the expansion only up til the 7th term (although there are actually 10 terms because we are raised to the power of 9).  If you would like to learn how to use Pascal's Triangle for binomial expansion, you will need to visit a good website that explains it because it's just too difficult to do it via this website.

The expasion is as follows (up to the 7th term):

1(3c)^{9} +9(3c)^{8}(2d)^{1} +36(3c)^{7}(2d)^{2} +84(3c)^6(2d)^3+126(3c)^5(2d)^4+126(3c)^4(2d)^5+84(3c)^3(2d)^6

That last term is the 7th term.  You find out its value by multiplying all the numbers together and adding on the c^3d^6.  Again those come from Pascal's triangle, and it's one of the coolest math things ever.  I encourage you to take the time to explore how it works.
