Answer:

18.5 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom's first carry was -5 yards and his second was +12.5 yards. If we know he finished with 26 yards we can make a simple equation to try and find the distance of his third carry. We let the letter c be a variable that represents the distance of his third carry.

(-5) + (12.5) + c = 26

This means his first carry + second carry + third carry = carry total

We can simply the left hand side

7.5 + c = 26

Now we move the 7.5 to the right side by subtracting it.

c = 26 - 7.5 \\c = 18.5

So Tom's third carry was for 18.5 yards!

Hope this helps!

Word Choices: fusion - heating - sublimation - chemical - physical - pressure - boiling
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

hey, hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Matter changes state because of physical pressure and temperature;  properties do not change.

heating gives molecules energy that causes them to vibrate faster, breaking their bonds and melting.

3. Heat energy that helps break the molecular bonds of a solid is heat of fusion

4. The temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas is the boiling point.

5. sublimation is when a solid turns straight into a gas.

Classify this polynomial 5x^2 +3
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Degree is 2 so it is a quadratic.

The number of terms is 2 so it is a binomial.

It is a binomial quadratic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the degree of the polynomial first. I'm going to consider first the degrees of 5x^2 and 3.

The degree of the monomial 5x^2 is 2 because x is the only variable and it's exponent is 2.

The degree of the monomial 3 is 0 because there is no variable.

The degree of 5x^2+3 is therefore 2 because that is the highest degree of the monomials contained with in this polynomial 5x^2+3.

Degree 2 has a special name.

The special name for a degree 2 polynomial is quadratic.

Let's look at the number of terms in 5x^2+3.

Terms are separated by addition and subtraction symbols so there are two terms.

There is a special name for a two-termed polynomial, it is binomial.

So this is the following information I collected on our given polynomial:

Degree is 2 so it is a quadratic.

The number of terms is 2 so it is a binomial.

It is a binomial quadratic.

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation and write the function rule.
Alexeev081 [22]
Yes they are, the constant variation is that for every 3 added to the x side, 1 is added to the y side. I would really appreciate the brainliest mark thanks!

Use the formula for the area of a triangle, and fill in the given information.
.. A = (1/2)*b*h
.. 36 in^2 = (1/2)*b*(9 in)
.. (72 in^2)/(9 in) = b . . . . . . . . multiply by 2, divide by 9 in
.. 8 in = b

The base is "none of the above", 8 inches.

_____
This question has a couple of problems:
.. 1) area is not measured in "inches"; it is measured in "square inches."
.. 2) ALL of the offered answer choices are INCORRECT.
