<h3>(8.4 + 10.3) + (–4.1) = 8.4 + (10.3 + (–4.1)) is a example of  associative property of addition</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to find the associative property of addition

a + (b+c) =(a+b) + c

When we add, we can group the numbers in any combination

<em><u>Option A</u></em>

–(18.9 + 3.2) = –18.9 + (–3.2)

Here, negative sign outside the bracket is distributed to terms inside the bracket

This is not a example of associative property

<em><u>Option B</u></em>

–5.5 + 7.9 = 7.9 + (–5.5)

By commutative property of addition,

a + b = b + a

This, is commutative property of addition

<em><u>Option C</u></em>

–17.5 + 0 = –17.5

This is also not a example of associative property

<em><u>Option D</u></em>

(8.4 + 10.3) + (–4.1) = 8.4 + (10.3 + (–4.1))

We can group the numbers in any combination

This is a example of associative property of addition

100 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE SHOW STEPS TO ALL PARTS
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A: the x-intercepts are -3/2 and 5/2 </u>

  • 4x^{2} - 7x - 15 -----> (2x + 3) (2x - 5)

2x + 3 = 0 --------> 2x = -3 ----------> x = \frac{-3}{2}

2x - 5 = 0 ---------> 2x = 5 -----------> x = \frac{5}{2}

<u>Part B: the parabola is a minimum, the vertex is (7/8,-289/16) </u>

f(x)=ax^2+bx+c

if a>0, then the parabola opens up and the vertex is a minimum

a<0 then the parabola opens down and the vertex is a max

  • a = 4, it is a minimum

the x value of  the vertex in f(x)=ax^2+bx+c= is -b/(2a)

the y value of the vertex is f(-b/(2a))  

f(x) = 4x^{2} - 7x - 15

a = 4

b = -7

-b/2a=-(7)/(2*4)=7/8

f(7/8) = 4(7/8)^{2} - 7(7/8) - 15

f(7/8) = 49/16 - 49/8 - 15

f(7/8) = -289/16

  • the vertex is (7/8,-289/16)

<u>Part C: </u>

  1. the vertex is minimum and the graph goes through the x intercepts
  2. plug in x values to get the y value (EX: choose 0 for x, and you'll get -15 for y, so you would plot the point at (0, -15). you could plug in 1 for x, and get -18 for y, plotting the point (1, -18) )

A crane lifts a pallet of concrete blocks 7ft from the back of a truck. The truck drives away and the crane lowers the pallet 11
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The position of the concrete relative to its initial position is 4ft behind its initial position

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us analyze the problem following the sequence of events.

First of all, the crane is initially 7 ft from the back of the truck.

Once the truck drives away, the crane lowers the concrete at 11 ft away from the back of the truck.

To get this distance relative to the initial position, we have to subtract the initial position from the final position of the concrete.

This will  be

11ft - 7ft = 4 ft

The position of the concrete relative to its initial position is 4ft behind its initial position
