Answer: The answer is 11/16

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS theres only addition and subtraction so we figure out this equation left to right.

1-1/2=1/2

1/2+1/4=3/4

3/4-1/8=5/8

5/8+1/16=11/16

Xavier said the product of a monomial and a binomial will always be a trinomial. Explain the error in his reasoning.
sergejj [24]

All that is needed is a single counter-example.

One counter-example is to multiply the monomial x^3 with the binomial x^7-10x^4

We then get...

x^3*(x^7-10x^4) = x^3*x^7 + x^3*(-10x^4)

x^3*(x^7-10x^4) = x^10 - x^7

The result we get is a binomial as there are still only two terms here. We would need three terms to have a trinomial.

On a scale drawing, a school is 1.6 feet tall. The scale factor is 1/22. Find the height of the school.
Vesnalui [34]

You can get this my multiplying the scale factor by the height. In this case you need to use the bottom number to multiply since you are going in reverse.
