you can imagine this as a venn diagram. the "or" event would consist of everything in both sides and the middle of the venn diagram because you can choose form either event x or event y.

the "and" event would consist of everything in the middle of the venn diagram because you choice must be a part of both event x and event y.

the complement of an event is just everything that is not included in the event. for example, in a coin flip, the complement of heads is tails. in a dice roll, the complement of {1,2} is {3,4,5,6}

so if you come across these just think "either or" or "both and." and remember that the complement is everything excluding what is listed.

i apologize if this does not help, im not that great at explaining things

The difference of two trinomials is x2 − 10x + 2. If one of the trinomials is 3x2 − 11x − 4, then which expression could be the

12345 [234]

Answer:

$4x^2-21x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Difference of two trinomials is $x^2 - 10x + 2$

One of the two trinomials is $3x^2 - 11x - 4$

To find:

The other trinomial = ?

Four options are:

$2x2 - x - 2 \\2x2 + x + 6 \\4x2 + 21x + 6\\ 4x2 - 21x - 2$

Solution:

Let the two trinomials be A and B.

Given A - B = $x^2 - 10x + 2$

B = $3x^2 - 11x - 4$

We have to find the other trinomial A.

A - B = $x^2 - 10x + 2$

A - ( $3x^2 - 11x - 4$ ) = $x^2 - 10x + 2$

$\Rightarrow$ A = $x^2 - 10x + 2$ + ( $3x^2 - 11x - 4$ )

$\Rightarrow$ A = $4x^2-21x-2$

So, the correct answer is $4x^2-21x-2$ .

Which description best compares the graphs given by the equations:

nexus9112 [7]

x - 5y = -5, -5x - 25y = 25

First, you'll need to get the x variable by itself.

x - 5y = -5
 +5 +5
 x = 0
So x is plotted on the 0.

For the second part of the first equation, you'll be looking for what the y variable represents.

x - 5y = -5
-x -x
 -5y = -5
 5 5
 y = 1
So y is plotted on the 1 on the vertical line above the 0.

For the first part of the second equation, you'll do the same thing as in the first equation.

-5x - 25y = 25
 +25 +25
 -5x = 50
 5 5
x = 10
So the x for this equation is plotted on 10 on the horizontal line.

For the second part of the second equation, you will do the same thing as in the first equation.

-5x - 25y = 25
+5 +5
 -25y = 30
 25 25
y = 1.2
So the y for the second half of the second question is plotted on 1.2 on the vertical line.

<h2>Answer: B) Perpendicular</h2>

Perpendicular means the lines may or may not be of equal length and they will not be perfectly in line with each other.

Parallel means the lines may or may not be of equal length but will be perfectly in line with each other.

Intersecting means the lines may or may not be of equal length but will touch each other.
