A student’s work to simplify and combine radicals is shown below. Select the statement which best applies to the sample mathemat

ical work.
Given 4√50-2√8, I observe that √50=√20*2 and √8=√4*2, and that 25 and 4 are perfect squares, so I simplify the expression to 100√2-8√2. I can then combine these terms to get 92√2, which is my answer.

Your answer is incorrect. You forgot to get the square root of 25 and 4. Answer should be 16√2

we can only subtract radicals that are the same. At first glance, 4√50 - 2√8 are not the same, so they are not likely to be subtracted. However, each radical can still be simplified.

4 √50 = 4 √25 * 2 = 4 * 5 √2 = 20 √2
2 √8   = 2 √4 * 2   = 2 * 2 √2 =   4 √2

Now that the radicals are the same. then you can subtract the numbers.

20 √2 - 4 √2 = 16√2

Aunt Maggie’s car broke down on iterestate 10. Sams towing charges a $57 hoop up fee and $2.00 per mile towed. Reginas towing ch
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Both situations can be modeled using linear functions

The rate of change of the function that models Regina's towing charge is 2.5

The y-intercept of the functions that model both situations represents the hook up fee

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of miles towed

y ----> the total charge in dollars

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

where

m is the slope or unit rate of the linear equation

b is the y-intercept or initial value (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

we have

Sam’s Towing

In this case the slope of the linear equation is equal to the unit rate

The unit rate is $2.00 per mile towed

so

The y-intercept is equal to the charge per fee

so

therefore

the linear equation is

Regina’s Towing

In this case the slope of the linear equation is equal to the unit rate

The unit rate is $2.50 per mile towed

so

The y-intercept is equal to the charge per fee

so

therefore

the linear equation is

Verify each statement

case 1) Both situations can be modeled using linear functions

The statement is true

See the explanation

case 2) The y-intercept of the function that models Sam's Towing charges is 2

The statement is False

The y-intercept of the function that models Sam's Towing charges is $57

case 3) The rate of change of the function that models Regina's towing charge is 2.5

The statement is true

See the explanation

case 4) The y-intercept of the functions that model both situations represents the hook up fee

The statement is true

See the explanation

case 5) The rate of change of the functions that model both situations represent the miles traveled per hour

The statement is False

The rate of change of the functions that model both situations represent dollars by mile towed

3 x + 7 = 2 
3 x = 2 - 7
3 x = - 5
x = - 5/3 

3 ( -5/3) + 7  = - 15/3 + 7 = - 5 + 7 = 2

Help me with this, please!!!!

Answer: D (1.5,0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not negative so cross out all those questions that leaves you with C and D. Now we can see that it's past the 1 point so it's in the 1.0 range and0. Range and Cs answer has 3 y on it which is incorrect. So that leaves you with D.
