81^5 = 3,486,784,401
3,486,784,401 / = X
X = 1,162,261,467
(I think anyways)
Answer:
$4,160,000
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the length of the new road in km using Pythagorean Theorem.
According to Pythagorean Theorem:
c² = a² + b²,
Where, c is the longest leg, which is the hypotenuse, a and b are the 2 other legs of the ∆.
Since we are calculating the lenght in km, convert each lenght of the two legs of the ∆ into km.
1 km = 1,000 m
10,000 m = 10 km
24,000 m = 24 km
c² = 24² + 10²
c² = 576 + 100
c² = 676
c = √676
c = 26 km
Lenght of the new road = 26 km
If cost of construction is $160,000 per kilometer, therefore, cost of constructing 26 km road = 160,000*26 = $4,160,000
We want to subtract 8x + 3 from -2x+5. We can create an expression to represent this.
-2x + 5 - (8x + 3).
After this, lets distribute the - sign (think of this like expanding something with -1).
-2x + 5 - 8x - 3
Lastly, we just need to combine like terms.
-2x + 5 - 8x - 3
Combine the 5 and -3 to get 2.
-2x + 2 - 8x
Combine the -2x and -8x to get -10x.
-10x + 2
The final answer to the question is therefore A.
