Answer:

3rd Option: -1(x + 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we factor our a negative 1, we take the opposite signs of what is given:

-1(x + 15)

To check, we simply just redistribute to check if it matches the original expression:

-x - 15

So the 3rd option is the correct choice.

Answer:

It's the third option (it's correct with you)

Step-by-step explanation:

- X - 15

So here we should the common factor between - x and - 15, where it is - 1 because both of these have minus in common.

Then the answer is:

-X - 15

= - 1 ( x + 15)

Hope this helps you..

Good Luck!

Without using a trigonometric ratio, find the distance from the ship to the buoy, B. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of

alexdok [17]

Without using the trigonometry ratio, we can find the distance between the ship and the buoy by:

the distance between City and Lemont SUBTRACT the vertical distance between City and the point parallel to the Ship

The distance between the City and Lemont can be worked out using the Sin rule
$\frac{57.8}{sin(36)}= \frac{City-Lemont}{sin(92)}$
$City-Lemont= \frac{57.9sin(92)}{sin(36)} = 98.27.....$ ≈98.3

The vertical distance between the City and the point parallel to the ship can be worked out using the Pythagoras theorem
$\sqrt{57.8^{2}- 44.6^{2} } =36.765...$ ≈36.8

The distance between the ship and the Buoy is given:
$98.3-36.8=61.5$ miles

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{4} n = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ multiply \: both \: sides \: by \: \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ \frac{ \cancel4}{\cancel3} \times \frac{\cancel3}{\cancel4} n = \frac{\cancel4 \: \: \red{ \bold2}}{3} \times \frac{1}{ \cancel2} \\ \\n = \frac{2 \times 1}{3 \times 1} \\ \\ n = \frac{2}{3}$

add the 2 numbers:

89 + 42 = 131 feet below the surface,

which can also be written as -131 feet

Answer:

D: The function has a hole when x = 3, and vertical asymptotes when x = 0 and x = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational function has vertical asymptotes and holes. Remember that an asymptote is placed when the function has undetermined results, when we give a x-value and the y-value cannot be determined, there we say exists an asymptotes, which is a punctual line that represents a discontinuation of the graph, the trace cannot cross that asymptote, it divide the whole function graph.

So, in this case we have to undetermined results when the function has a hole of x = 3, and vertical asymptotes when x = 0 and x = 5.
