What is FOIL and PEMDAS?

Mathematics

FOIL and PEMDAS are both ways to solve mathematical equations.

<u>FOIL</u><u />
First
Outside
Inside
Last

<u>PEMDAS
</u>
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication &
Division
Addition &
S<u />ubtraction


FOIL is usually used to solve equations in two sets of parenthesis, for example:
(23+x)(5-4x)

PEMDAS is used to solve multiple-operation equations, such as:
5 x 4 + 6 - 2 x 7

Whew, hope this helped :D

The graph above is the graph of: y = | x + 4 | − 2 y = | x − 4 | − 2 y = | x − 2 | − 4
Liono4ka [1.6K]

We need to identify the equation of the graph given.

This graph corresponds to a translation of the graph described as:

y=|x|

Comparing the graph given with the one above, we can see it was shifted 4 units to the left.

When we translate the graph of a function f(x) d units to the left, it is transformed as:

f(x)\rightarrow f(x+d)

The school day begins at 7:55 a.m. and ends at 2:40 p.m. how long are you in school?
Mademuasel [1]

Think:

7:55 a.m. is 5 minutes (5/60 hrs) before 8 a.m.;

from 8 to noon it's 4 hours, and from noon to 2:40 p.m. is 2 2/3 hours.

Thus, you're in school 5/60 hrs + 4 hrs + 2 2/3 hrs, or

6 2/3 hrs + 5/60 hrs, or 6 40/60 hrs + 5/60 hrs, or

6 45/60 hrs, or 6 3/4 hrs.

Of course there are other ways in which you could do this problem:

4 hrs 5 min plus 2 hrs 40 min comes out to 6 hrs 45 min, or 6 3/4 hrs.

A rectangular tank that is 2048 ft cubed with a square base and open top is to be constructed of sheet steel of a given thicknes
ira [324]

Answer:

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft Therefore,dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the volume of the tank as, 2048 cubic feet.

Form minimum weight, the surface area must be minimum.

Let the height be h and the lengths be x

the volume will be: V=x²h then substitute the value of volume, we have

2048=hx²

hence

h=2048/x²

Since the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, then the material needs to be minimized by minimizing the surface area.

The surface area of the box described is

A=x²+4xh

Then substitute h into the Area equation we have

A= x² + 4x(2048/x²)

A= x² + 8192/x

We want to minimize

A

dA/dx = -8192/x² + 2 x= 0 for max or min

when dA/dx=0

dA/dx= 2x-8192/x²=0

2x=8192/x²

Hence

2x³=8192

x³=4096

x=₃√(4096)

X=16ft

Then h=2048/x²

h=2048/16²

h=8ft

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft

Hence the dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

A box has 1 red marble, 3 blue marbles, and 4 green marbles. Maya draws a blue marble randomly from the box, replaces it, and th
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

\dfrac{9}{64}

Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling with replacement means that we choose a marble, note its colour, put it back and shake the box, then choose a marble again.

There are 1+3+4=8 marbles in total. The probability that the first chosen marble is blue is \dfrac{3}{8}. then Maya replaces this marble and the probability of choosing the second blue marble is the same. Using the product rule, the probability of drawing 2 blue marbles in a row is

\dfrac{3}{8}\cdot \dfrac{3}{8}=\dfrac{9}{64}.
