Answer:
4x-5= 5 less than the product of 4 and a number. 4 (x-5)= The product of 4 and the difference of a number and 5. 4(x+5) = The product of 4 and the sum of a number and 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
I took the test online in K12 and when I reviewed it said that those are the correct answer.
Answer:
7 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
If it drops 2 per hour, and you need it to drop 15, divide 15 by 2 and you’ll get 7.5 or 7 1/2
Answer: Carlos is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^5-250x^2
The first step is to factorize out 2x^2
2x^2(x^3-125)
This can be rewritten as
2x^2(x^3-5^3),
Recall, difference if cube (a^3-b^3)
= (a-b)(a^2 +ab + b^2)
from our equation,
a= x
b = 5.
So the difference of cubes will be
2x^2[(x-5) (x^2 + 5x + 5^2)]
=2x^2[(x-5) (x^2 + 5x + 25)]
Carlos followed these steps. So he is correct. Carlos is correct because he correctly factored the GCF, identified a and b, and applied the difference of cubes method.
Amber is incorrect because 125 is equal to b3, not b.
Bernie is incorrect because x2 is not the GCF of the polynomial. The GCF is 2x^2.
If you translate this problem literally, it is saying, “72 is what percent of 288?”. And the equational translation of that is 72 = (x/100) • 288
[ “is” means equal to (=) // “what” means x or another variable // “percent” means divided by 100” // “of” means multiplication. ]
Then you solve that equation.
(you can check it by googling what is 25% of 288. )
