The distributive property, in this case, is to multiply the number outside the parenthesis by the numbers and characters inside the parenthesis:

11 (x - 5)
11x - 55 → Simplified expression.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

Elza [17]

Answer:

(a) The slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x)

(b) f(x) has a greater y intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\begin{array}{cc}x & {f(x)} & -1&-9&0&-1&1&7 \ \end{array}$

$g(x) = 3x - 2$

Solving (a): Compare the slopes

The slope (m) of f(x) is calculated as;

$m = \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}$

This gives:

$m = \frac{f(0) - f(1)}{0 - 1}$

$m = \frac{f(0) - f(1)}{- 1}$

Substitute values for f(0) and f(1)

$m = \frac{-1 - 7}{- 1}$

$m = \frac{-8}{- 1}$

$m = 8$

The slope of g(x) can be gotten using the following comparison

$g(x) = mx + b$

$m \to slope$

So:

$g(x) = 3x -2$

$m = 3$

$m_{f(x)} > m_{g(x)}$

Solving (b): Compare the y intercept

y intercept is when $x = 0$

From the table of f(x)

$f(0) = -1$

From the equation of g(x)

$g(x) = 3x -2$

$g(0) = 3*0-2$

$g(0) =-2$

<em></em> $f(0) > g(0)$ <em></em>

A sphere has a volume of V=900 in cubed. What is the surface area?

ycow [4]

First, we must solve for the radius of the sphere:
V= $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi$ $r^{3}$
r=(3 $\frac{V}{4 \pi }$ ) $^{ \frac{1}{3} }$
r=(3* $\frac{900}{4 \pi }$ ) $^{ \frac{1}{3} }$
r≈5.99

Second, we must solve for surface area:
A=4 $\pi$ $r^{2}$
A=4* $\pi$ * $5.99^{2}$
A≈450.88 $in^{2}$
