5/10 × 3 explain how you got the answer then when finish do 4/10 × 4 and explain.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

1.5,   1.6


Discussion:

The question is how to interpret 5/10 * 3.   Both multiplication and division have the same precedence but we proceed from left to right (doing the divison first)

5/10 * 3 = (5/10) * 3 = (1/2)* 3 = 3/2 = 1.5                  

Same approach for the second equation:

4/10 * 4 = (4/10) * 4 = 16/10 = 8/5 = 1.6


Thank you,

MrB

If tile costs $8.50 per square foot, how much does it cost per inch?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$0.06 per square inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The question should be:

<em>"If tile costs $8.50 per square foot, how much does it cost per square inch?"</em>

<em />

To solve this, we basically need a conversion from feet to inches. BUT 2 times, since we are talking about "square feet" and "square inches".

We know 1 feet = 12 inches

Also, since we are going from square feet to square inches [big to small], we have to divide TWICE.

Thus, we will have:

\frac{8.5}{12*12}

We are dividing 8.5 (the cost) by 12, 2 times since we want square feet in square inches. The answer is:

\frac{8.5}{12*12}=0.06

So, tile costs $0.06 per square inch

Which of the following expressions are polynomials?
AlekseyPX

Answer:

1,3 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) -2(7x + 1) − 5(3x2 + 3x + 2)

= -14x - 2 - 15x^2 - 15x - 10

= -15x^2 - 29x - 12

2) (5x2 − 10x + 8) − (10x2 + 19x + 20)

= 5x^2 - 10x + 8 - 10x^2 - 19x - 20

= -5x^2 -29x - 12

3) (-7x2 − 21x + 13) − (8x2 + 8x + 25)

= -7x^2 - 21x + 13 - 8x^2 - 8x - 25

= -15x^2 - 29x - 12

4) (-19x2 − 4x - 7) + (4x2 + 25x − 5)

= -15x^2 + 21x - 12

5) (-17x2 + 2x − 3) + (2x2 − 31x − 9)

= -15x^2 -29x - 12

6) -2(4x − 15) − 3(5x2 + 7x + 6)

= -8x + 30 - 15x^2 - 21x - 18

= -15x^2 - 29x + 12
