Please help me with this question

Mathematics
1 answer:

The exercise is apparently directed toward getting you to group the positive integers together and the negative integers together before you work out the difference. Doing that gives you ...

a) (10 +5) -19

b) = 15 -19

= -4

_____

Personally, I wouldn't do that <em>for this problem</em>. If you do the arithmetic in order, it seems easier to me because you're only doing single-digit arithmetic after the first sum.

= (10 -19) +5

= -9 +5

= -4

_____

The idea is that there are different stratgies that you can employ to simplify your work and reduce errors. Grouping positive and negative numbers together is one such strategy. Arranging the sums so they almost cancel is another strategy you can use.

What is the quotient (x^3+8)/(x+2)
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this is by using synthetic division (I really hope you know what I'm talking about!)

If the factor is x + 2 = 0, then the solution or the root is x = -2.  We will put -2 outside the "box" and the coefficients from the terms of the polynomial inside the "box":

-2|   1    0    0    8

Bring down the first number and multiply it by the -2.  Put the product up under the first 0 and add:

-2|   1    0    0    8

           -2

      1   -2  

Now multiply the -2 by the -2, put the product up under the next 0 and add:

-2|   1    0    0    8

           -2    4

      1    -2    4

Now multiply the 4 by the -2, put the product up under the 8 and add:

-2|   1    0    0    8

           -2   4    -8

     1    -2   4    0

Those bold numbers are the coefficients to the quotient, which is another polynomial, but is one degree less than the one you started with:

x² - 2x + 4 = 0

Since there is no remainder, then x = -2 is a zero of x³ + 8, and (x + 2) is a factor.

There is a whole world of stuff to learn about quadratics!!

jeyben [28]

Answer:

25 units

Step-by-step explanation:

use the distance formula to get the square root of 24² + 7²

this will give you the square root of 625, which is 25

A number pattern was created by dividing the previous term by 3. If the starting value for the pattern was 135, which of the fol
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

B. 135, 45, 15, 5...

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll go in order from 135 using the pattern shown (tᵇ/3)

135 / 3

135 = 120 + 15

135/3 = (120/3) + (15/3)

135/3 = 40 + 5

135/3 = 45

All four answer choices show this, so no elimination yet.

45 / 3

45 = 30 + 15

45/3 = (30/3) + (15/3)

45/3 = 10 + 5

45/3 = 15

A and D show 30 as term 3, so they are out.

15 / 3

15/3 = 5

C shows 2 as term 4, so that is also out.

This leaves B as the correct answer.
