Answer:

A- 8x^3 + 12x^2 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbol ^ with a 2 is squared and ^ with 3 means cubed.

1. Add a 1 before the parenthesis on both sides. Now, the equation should look like 1(5x^2 + 6x^3 + 2x) -1(3x - 2x^3 - 7x^2).

2. Now we should distribute. 1 × 5x^2 + 1 × 6x^3 + 1 × 2x -1 × 3x + -1 × -2x^3 + -1 × -7x^2.

3. Now the equation should be simplified.

1 × 5x^2 = 5x^2

1 × 6x^3 = 6x^3

1 × 2x = 2x

-1 × 3x = -3x

-1 × -2x^3 + -1 = 2x^3 -1. In this equation, there is a +- sign together, which is the same as a - sign.

-1 × -7x^2 = 7x^2

4. The new equation is 5x^2 + 6x^3 + 2x - 3x + 2x^3 - 1 + 7x^2

5. Now you can combine the like terms. 5x^2 and 7x^2 can be added, so 5x^2 + 7x^2 is equal to 12x^2. Also, 6x^3 and 2x^3 can be added, so 6x^3 + 2x^3 is equal to 8x^3. Lastly, 2x and -3x can be combined, so 2x - 3x is equal to -1x or -x.

6. So, the simplified equation is 12x^2 + 8x^3 -x. You can also write it as 8x^3 + 12x^2 - x. So, A is the answer.

What are the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of parallelogram LMNO, with vertices L(0,-3), M(-2,1), N(1,5), O(3

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

ANSWER

$\boxed {( \frac{1}{2} , 1)}$

EXPLANATION

The given parallelogram has vertices,

L(0,-3), M(-2,1), N(1,5), O(3,1).

The diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other.

From the diagram, we can see that, the diagonals have coordinates L(0,-3),N(1,5)

and

M(-2,1),O(3,1).

The midpoint of any of the diagonals will give us the coordinates of intersection of the diagonals.

Recall the midpoint formula,

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_2+y_1}{2})$

Using L(0,-3),N(1,5) gives,

$(\frac{0+1}{2}, \frac{ - 3+5}{2})$

$(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{ 2}{2})$

$(\frac{1}{2}, 1)$

Or we could have also used,M(-2,1),O(3,1) to get,

$(\frac{-2+3}{2}, \frac{ 1+1}{2})$

$(\frac{ 1}{2}, \frac{ 2}{2})$

$(\frac{ 1}{2}, 1)$

The correct answer is C

Mary and Mike went to the store to buy colored pencils for their science class.mike bought a 12-pack for 1.69,and Mary bought a

sweet-ann [11.9K]

12-pack for 1.69 is a better buy

Solution:

Given that, Mike bought a 12-pack for 1.69 and Mary bought a 24-pack for 3.18

We have to find which is the better buy

First we have to find the unit rate

Unit rate is cost of 1 pack

Mike bought a 12-pack for 1.69

Therefore,

Cost of 12 pack = 1.69

Cost of 1 pack is found by dividing 1.69 by 12

$cost\ of\ 1\ pack = \frac{1.69}{12} = 0.14083$

Thus unit rate of Mike is 0.14083 dollar per pack

Mary bought a 24-pack for 3.18

Cost of 24 pack = 3.18

Cost of 1 pack is found by dividing 3.18 by 24

$cost\ of\ 1\ pack = \frac{3.18}{24} = 0.1325$

Thus unit rate of Mary is 0.1325 dollars

On comparing both the unit rate

$0.14083>0.1325$

Thus unit rate of Mike is larger

Thus, 12-pack for 1.69 is a better buy

Answer:

The answer is "Type 1 error".

Step-by-step explanation:

The error of type I, frequently known as a 'false positive': its error in judgment that perhaps a null hypothesis is simply rejected. This is the mistake of accepting a possible (actual interest hypothesis) hypothesis whenever the results could be attributed to chance since the researchers deny, if valid, the null hypothesis.
