Answer:

2. 2x² + 7x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

3[x² - 1] - [x² - 7x + 10]

3x² - 3 - x² + 7x - 10

2x² - 13 + 7x

The above answer is a bit written in reverse, which is the exact same result.

So, after performing the Distributive Property, from there, you can combine all like-terms, as done above.

** Now, just in case you are wondering why that -7 has been altered to its opposite, it is because although -7x does not have another like-term to pair up with, IT IS STILL HOOKED UP TO ANOTHER NEGATIVE, so that -7x is REALLY 7x.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Question 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of quarter circle = r + r + $\frac{1}{4}*2*\pi *r$

$= 10 + 10 + \frac{1}{4}*2*3.14*10\\\\= 10 + 10 + 3.14*5\\\\\\= 10 + 10 + 15.70\\\\= 35.70 cm$

2) d = 2*10 = 20 cm

Perimeter of semicircle = diameter + (1/2) * circumference of circle

$= 20 + \frac{1}{2}* 2*\pi *r\\\\= 20 + \frac{1}{2}*2*3.14*10\\\\= 20 + 3.14*10\\\\= 20 + 31.4\\\\= 51.40 cm$

3) Perimeter of three-quarter = r + r + (3/4)* circumference of circle

$= 10 + 10 + \frac{3}{4}*2*\pi *r\\\\= 10 + 10 + \frac{3}{4} * 2 * 3.14 * 10\\\\= 10 + 10 + 3 * 3.14 * 5\\\\= 10 + 10 + 47.1\\\\= 67.1 cm$

Which radical expression in the picture is equivalent to t^5/8?

mixas84 [53]

<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

The rule we use is

$\Large a^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{a^m} = \left(\sqrt[n]{a}\right)^m$

where 'a' is the base, m stays in the role of the exponent, and n plays the role of the root index (eg: n = 3 is a cube root, n = 4 is a fourth root, and so on).

So for instance,

$\Large 2^{3/4} = \sqrt[4]{2^3} = \left(\sqrt[4]{2}\right)^3$

or in this case,

$\Large t^{5/8} = \sqrt[8]{t^5} = \left(\sqrt[8]{t}\right)^5$
