Answer:
1.4 times k
Step-by-step explanation:
If k feet is the distance from home plate to third base, and the distance from first base to third base is 1.4 times the previous value, then
distance from first base to third base = 1.4 * k or 1.4 times k
If, for example, k=90 feet, then from first to third base there are
1.4*90=126 feet
11. Factoring and solving equations
- A. Factor-
1. Factor 3x2 + 6x if possible.
Look for monomial (single-term) factors first; 3 is a factor of both 3x2
and 6x and so is x . Factor them out to get
3x2 + 6x = 3(x2 + 2x1 = 3x(x+ 2) .
2. Factor x2 + x - 6 if possible.
Here we have no common monomial factors. To get the x2 term
we'll have the form (x +-)(x +-) . Since
(x+A)(x+B) = x2 + (A+B)x + AB ,
we need two numbers A and B whose sum is 1 and whose product is
-6 . Integer possibilities that will give a product of -6 are
-6 and 1, 6 and -1, -3 and 2, 3 and -2.
The only pair whose sum is 1 is (3 and -2) , so the factorization is
x2 + x - 6 = (x+3)(x-2) .
3. Factor 4x2 - 3x - 10 if possible.
Because of the 4x2 term the factored form wli be either
(4x+A)(x +B) or (2x+A)(2x+B) . Because of the -10 the integer possibilities
for the pair A, B are
10 and -1 , -10 and 1 , 5 and -2 . -5 and 2 , plus each of
these in reversed order.
Check the various possibilities by trial and error. It may help to write
out the expansions
(4x + A)(x+ B) = 4x2 + (4B+A)x + A8
1 trying to get -3 here
(2x+A)(2x+B) = 4x2 + (2B+ 2A)x + AB
Trial and error gives the factorization 4x2 - 3x - 10 - (4x+5)(x- 2) .
4. Difference of two squares. Since (A + B)(A - B) = - B~ , any
expression of the form A' - B' can be factored. Note that A and B
might be anything at all.
Examples: 9x2 - 16 = (3x1' - 4' = (3x +4)(3x - 4)
x2 - 29 = x2 - (my)* = (x+ JTy)(x- my)
Answer:
50.04 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
If 1 gallon weighs 8.34 pounds,
all you have to do is multiply 8.34 by 6
to get what 6 gallons would weigh.
Answer:
its infinite
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is 2x+1=x−3
That is 2x−x=−3−1
⇒x=−4
Thus there is only one point on the number line that satisfies the equation x=−4, but on cartesian plane i.e. X-Y plane , there are infinite number of solutions as x=−4, and y can have any real value.
