Pepsi [2]3 years ago

Yes the distributive property is used to expand expressions, but it is also used to make it simpler.
For an example

3(x+4) + 3(y-8)
This is the same thing as
3x + 12 + 3y -8

Find m∠U.<br> Write your answer as an integer or as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Answer:

50.2

Step-by-step explanation:

ut =  \sqrt{ {6}^{2}  +  {5}^{2} }   \\  \sqrt{36 + 25}  \\  \sqrt{61 }  \\ using \: cosine \: rule \\ cos \: u =  \frac{ {5}^{2} + 61 - 36 }{2 \times 5 \times  \sqrt{61} }  \\  \\  =  \frac{25 + 61 - 36}{78}  \\  \\  = \frac{50}{78 }  \\  \cos \: u = 0.64 \\ m∠U. = 50.2

How can Kendra determine if the function is actually linear?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

D. She can check to see if the rate of change between the first two ordered pairs is the same as the rate of change between the first and last ordered pairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the rate of change between first two ordered pairs and the second two ordered pairs:

1. Points (2,4) and (3,9). Rate of change:

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{9-4}{3-2}=\dfrac{5}{1}=5

2. Points (3,9) and (4,16). Rate of change:

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{16-9}{4-3}=\dfrac{7}{1}=7

The rate of change for the linear function must the same for each two points on the graph of the function. In this case, the reate of change differs, so this function is not linear and correct option is D.
