Step-by-step explanation:

Han is multiplying10x^4 by 0.5^3 and gets 5x^7 is not a polynomial because 0.5 is not an integer. What is the error in han’s thinking explain

On multiplying 10x⁴ by 0.5x³,

10x^4\times 0.5x^3=(10\times 0.5)x^{4+3}\\\\=5x^7

A polynomial is a combination of coefficients and variables. It is made up of one or more monomial. Han says that it is not a polynomial because 0.5 is not an integer. The statement is false. After multiplication we get 5x⁷. It has a variable x and constant 5. Hence, its is a polynomial.

A rotation of a point on the coordinate system for 180 degrees about the origin results in (x, y) → (-x, -y).

Given that the coordinate of L is (2, 2), then the coordinates of L' is (-2, -2).

Given that the coordinates of N is (1, 6), then the coordinate of N' is (-1. -6)

Therefore, the <span>statements that are true regarding the transformation are:

Find the missing length of 26cm 10cm of the right triangle
Scilla [17]

Answer:

24cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A^2 + B^2 = C^2 soo 10^ + B^ = 26^2 so 100 + B^2 = 676 subtract 100 from 676. Then take the square root of 576 and you’ll get 24. So B = 24cm

Alex is building a rectangular fence around his yard. The total perimeter of the fence is 68 feet and the area of the yard is 24
pychu [463]

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w


68 = 2L + 2w


68 - 2L = 2w


2(34 - L) = 2(w)


34 - L = w


********************                                


Area (A) = L * w


     240 = L (34 - L)


     240 = 34L - L²


L² - 34L + 240 = 0


(L - 10)(L - 24) = 0


L = 10  or  L = 24


w = 34 - L   = 34 - 10   = 24      or      w = 34 - 24   = 10


Answer: width = 10, length = 24   assuming length is bigger than the width

Can someone help me with this math? explain your answer too.​

Answer:

1.  Consistent independent.

2.  Coincident

3.  Inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y = 8

x +  3y = 8   Multiply this equation by -4:

-4x - 12y = -32

Adding this to the first equation:

-11y = -24 giving y = -24/-11 = 2.18

Substituting in the first second equation:

x + 3(2.18) = 8 giving x = 1.46.

So this system of equations has roots (1.46, 2.18)  and is consistent independent.

2.

-4x + 6y = -2

2x - 3y = 1   Multiply this by -2:

-4x + 6y = -2

So these 2 equations are the same and will give the same graph on the coordinate plane, and so has:

Infinite solutions  and is coincident.

3.

5x - 2y = 4

5x - 2y = 6

We can see immediately that this system of equations has NO Solutions.

If we subtract the 2 equations  we get:

0 = -2 which is of course, absurd.

Classification Inconsistent.
