Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

The contiguous U.S. consist of all states beside Alaska and Hawaii; therefore, there are 48 contiguous U.S. states. However, the ratio given to us only consists of 16 states [7 + 9 = 16]. If we need to expand the ratio, we multiply 16 by 3 to get 48. Thus, we also multiply each of the terms by 3, and the ratio becomes 21:27. Therefore, the number of contiguous U.S. states that border an ocean is 21.

How much material will Dmitri's mom need for the tent, including the floor?
suter [353]
<h3>Answer:  21.4 square meters</h3>

Work Shown:

A = area of the front triangular face

A = base*height/2

A = 2*1.7/2

A = 1.7

L = lateral area

L = (perimeter of the base)*(depth)

L = (2+2+2)*(3)

L = 18

SA = total surface area of a triangular prism

SA = 2*A+L

SA = 2*1.7+18

SA = 21.4 square meters

Choose the expression that represents a cubic expression.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

10x³ - 6x² - 9x + 12 is a cubic expression ⇒ 2nd

6x + 6 is a linear expression ⇒ 1st

5x² + 9x - 1 is a quadratic expression ⇒ 2nd

Quadratic expression ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the degree of any expression

- The degree of any expression is the greatest power of the variable

- Ex:

# 3x - 3 is a first degree expression

# x² - 3x + 2  is a second degree expression

# 5x³ - 2x² + 5x - 2 is a third degree expression

- The first degree expression is called linear expression

- The second degree expression is called quadratic expression

- The third degree expression is called cubic expression

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The cubic expression is the expression with greatest power of 3

∴ 10x³ - 6x² - 9x + 12 is the cubic expression

∵ The linear expression is the expression with greatest power of 1

∴ 6x + 6 is a linear expression

∵ The quadratic expression is the expression with greatest power of 2

∴ 5x² + 9x - 1 is a quadratic expression

∵ The expression is -2x² + 11

∵ The greatest power of x is 2

∴ -2x² + 11 is a quadratic expression

If the line in the graph is shifted up two units which is the equation of the new line
anastassius [24]

Answer:

f(x) + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example:

If we have say f(x) = x + 1 then 2 units will be added to f(x) when it is moved up 2 units.

So the equation of this line will be f(x) + 2 which in this example is

x + 1+ 2.

The new function is  x + 3.
