Answer:

$\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{12x - 28}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star{ \sf{ \: \: 4(5x - 6) - 4(2x + 1)}}$

$\text{Step \: 1 \: : Distribute \: 4 \: through \: the \: parentheses}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{20x - 24 - 4(2x + 1)}}$

$\text{Step \: 2 \: : Distribute \: 4 \: through \: the \: parentheses}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{20x - 24 - 8x - 4}}$

$\text{Step \: 3 \: : Collect \: like \: terms}$

$\text{Like \: terms \: are \: those \: which \: have \: same \: base}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{20x - 8x - 24 - 4}}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{12x - 24 - 4}}$

$\text{Step \: 4 \: : Calculate}$

$\underline{ \sf{Remember!}} : \sf{The \: negative \: integers \: are \: always \: added \: but \: posses \: the \: negative \: ( - ) \: sign}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{12x - 28}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Grayson is flying a kite, holding his hands a distance of 2.75 feet above the ground and letting all the kite’s string play out.

sergiy2304 [10]

The position of the kite with the point directly beneath the kite at the same

level with the hand and the hand for a right triangle.

The height of the kite above the is approximately 66.314 feet.

Reasons:

The height of his hands above the ground, h = 2.75 feet

Angle of elevation of the string (above the horizontal), θ = 26°

Length of the string, l = 145 feet

Required:

The height of the kite above the ground.

Solution:

The height of the kite above the ground is given by trigonometric ratios as follows;

$\displaystyle Height \ of \ kite, \, k_h = \mathbf{h + l \times sin(\theta)}$

Therefore;

$\displaystyle Height \ of \ kite, \, k_h = 2.75 + 145 \times sin(26^{\circ}) \approx \mathbf{66.314}$

The height of the kite above the, $k_h$ ≈ 66.314 feet

On the same day, Parker’s friend, Peggy, was charged $5 for 1 1/2 lb. of gummy candy. Explain in terms of the graph why this mus

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

After a quick online search, I've found that the complete question is:

a) Parker paid $4.50 for three pounds of gummy candy. Assuming each pound of gummy candy costs the same amount, complete the table of values representing the cost of gummy candy in pounds.

Then we want to graph the points, and then comes our question:

c) On the same day, Parker’s friend, Peggy, was charged $5 for 1 1/2 lb. of gummy candy. Explain in terms of the graph why this must be a mistake.

So first, we know that this is a proportional relationship (each pound of candy costs the same)

And 0 pounds of candy should cost $0.

Then the relation between y (price) and x (number of lb) is:

y = k*lb

where k is the cost per lb.

Knowing that Parker paid $4.50 for three pounds of gummy candy, the relation is:

$4.50 = k*3lb

($4.50/3lb) = k = $1.50/lb

Then the linear relation is:

y = ($1.50/lb)*x

Now, in this question we can see that Parker's friend was charged $5 for ( 1 and 1/2) lb of candy.

If we replace those values in the equation, we get:

$5 = ($1.50/lb)*(1 + 1/2)lb = $2.25

This equation is false, then, in terms of the graph, the point ( (1 and 1/2)lb, $5) does not belong on the graph that you found in the previous points.
