Answer:

4 x + -43

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

7 (x - 4) - 3 (x + 5)

Hint: | Distribute 7 over x - 4.

7 (x - 4) = 7 x - 28:

7 x - 28 - 3 (x + 5)

Hint: | Distribute -3 over x + 5.

-3 (x + 5) = -3 x - 15:

7 x + -3 x - 15 - 28

Hint: | Group like terms in 7 x - 3 x - 28 - 15.

Grouping like terms, 7 x - 3 x - 28 - 15 = (7 x - 3 x) + (-28 - 15):

(7 x - 3 x) + (-28 - 15)

Hint: | Combine like terms in 7 x - 3 x.

7 x - 3 x = 4 x:

4 x + (-28 - 15)

Hint: | Evaluate -28 - 15.

-28 - 15 = -43:

Answer: 4 x + -43

The radius of the circle is increasing at a rate of 2 meters per minute and the sides of the square are increasing at a rate of

Lunna [17]

Answer:

Change in area=24 $\pi$ -48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s will be the side of square and r will be the radius of circle.

Then two given conditions are

1)dr/dt=2 m/s

2)ds/dt=1 m/s

Area enclosed=(Area of square)-(Area of circle)

Area of square= $s^{2}$

Area of circle= $\pi r^{2}$

Area enclosed= $(\pi r^{2})-s^{2}$

dA/dt=2 $\pi$ r(dr/dt)-2s(ds/dt)

At s=24,and r=6

dA/dt=2( $\pi$ )(6)(2)-2(24)(1)

Change in area=24 $\pi$ -48

Sam wanted to buy candy for all of his friends to share at lunch. One pound of chocolates cost $6.95, but Sim only needs 0.6 of

OLga [1]

Answer:

The answer to your question is cost of 0.6 pound of candy $4.17

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

1 pound of candy = $6.95

only 0.6 pounds

final cost = ?

Process

1.- Use proportions to find the cost of 0.6 pounds of candy

1 pound of candy -------------- $6.95

0.6 pound of candy ---------- x

2.- Use cross multiplication

x = (0.6 x 6.95) / 1

3.- Simplification and result

x = $ 4.17

Solve the following system of linear equation by graphing. <br>4x + 2y = -2 <br>2x – 3y = 9

Viefleur [7K]

If you can graph in slope intercept, your new equations would be: y= -2x-1 and y= 2/3x-3.
Just graph those now since it should be easier.

A binomial experiment consists of 14 trials. The probability of success on trial 7 is 0.84. What is the probability of failure o

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The probability of failure of trial 11 is $q = 0.16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally one the attributes of a binomial experiment is that the probability of success and failure is constant every trial so given from the question that the probability of success is 0.84 for trial 7 , then the probability of failure of trial 7 will be evaluated as

$q = 1 - 0.84$

=> $q = 0.16$

And from the attribute stated above the probability of failure of trial 11 is $q = 0.16$
