Answer:
142 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the situation that Jill measured the distance from the western border to the eastern border in inches. And we are being asked how many miles is the actual distance.
So first , lets look at what we have.
The inches : 3.375
and our reference point
1 inch = 42 miles
We first look at the reference point, if 1 inch is 42 miles, how much would be 3.375 inches?
Multiply 3.375 by 42
==> 141.75 miles
Now the last sentence asks us to round the nearest whole number.
So look at the number next to one in the ones place and we see that the number is greater than 7, so we round up. Leaving us with the answer :
142 miles
5/30+4/6
5/30=1/6
1/6+4/6=5/6
5/6

Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
So, substitute in your 4 for r, 2(3) + 1. Multiply 2 and 3 to get 6 and then add a to get 7. I hope this helps :)
Answer:
-(x + 1)(7x - 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Factor out a -1
-1(7x² - 5x - 12)
Step 2:
Think. Answer this question: "What 2 numbers multiply up to -12 and adds up to -5 while 7 is an x coefficient?". You answer should be -12 and 1.
So, <em>factor</em>.
-1(x + 1)(7x - 12)
To double check, just expand/FOIL everything and see if it is the same as the original expression.
