Answer:

Question?

Is the wording: price of "a" dollars, (in italics)?

If so, the equation would be:

0.8a

Otherwise, if "x" represents the regular price, then the equation would be:

0.8x

Answer:

1) (x + 3)(3x + 2)

2) x= +/-root6 - 1 by 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + 11x + 6 = 0 (mid-term break)

using mid-term break

3x^2 + 9x + 2x + 6 = 0

factor out 3x from first pair and +2 from the second pair

3x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3)

factor out x+3

(x + 3)(3x + 2)

5x^2 + 2x = 1 (completing squares)

rearrange the equation

5x^2 + 2x - 1 = 0

divide both sides by 5 to cancel out the 5 of first term

5x^2/5 + 2x/5 - 1/5 = 0/5

x^2 + 2x/5 - 1/5 = 0

rearranging the equation to gain a+b=c form

x^2 + 2x/5 = 1/5

adding (1/5)^2 on both sides

x^2 + 2x/5 + (1/5)^2 = 1/5 + (1/5)^2

(x + 1/5)^2 = 1/5 + 1/25

(x + 1/5)^2 = 5 + 1 by 25

(x + 1/5)^2 = 6/25

taking square root on both sides

root(x + 1/5)^2 = +/- root(6/25)

x + 1/5 = +/- root6 /5

shifting 1/5 on the other side

x = +/- root6 /5 - 1/5

x = +/- root6 - 1 by 5

x = + root6 - 1 by 5 or x= - root6 - 1 by 5

Point A lies outside of plane P. How many lines can be drawn perpendicular to plane P through point A?
Ivanshal [37]

<em>Answer</em>


D) 1


<em>Explanation</em>

A perpendicular line makes a angle of 90° with a line or a plane.

If a line is to be drawn from a point to a line or a plain it can only be one. In this case a line is to be drawn through a point A to a plane P. If the line is to be perpendicular, then is is only one.


From the choices, the appropriate answer is D) 1

Simplify the picture below
podryga [215]
((x^2-3x-18)/(x+3))
((x-6)(x+3))/(x+3)
The x+3 on top cancels out the x+3 on the bottom so all you have left is

x-6


Hope I didn't mess up for your sake!

Which of the following expressions illustrates the commutative property of addition? 3 + (-7) = (-7) + 3 -4(5) = 5(-4) 4 + (1 +
umka2103 [35]
By definition, we have to:

 In mathematics, the commutative property or commutativity is a fundamental property that has some operations according to which the result of operating two elements does not depend on the order in which they are taken.

 This is fulfilled in ordinary addition and multiplication: the order of the addends does not alter the sum, or the order of the factors does not alter the product.

 We have then, that the commutative property of the addition is:
 3 + (-7) = (-7) + 3

 Answer:
 
An expression that illustrates the commutative property of addition is:
 
3 + (-7) = (-7) + 3
