Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Lila did it correctly. The answer is 324
Following PEMDAS, we first focus on the parenthesis. So we simplify 9-3 to get 6
So we go from
18*4^2+(9-3)^2
to
18*4^2+6^2
The next step is applying exponents. In this case, squaring the terms, so we go from
18*4^2+6^2
to
18*16+36
Next is multiplying
18*16+36
turns into
288+36
Finally, add up 288 and 36 to get 288+36 = 324
That confirms that Lila is correct
----------------------
The error that Rob made is that he computed 18*4^2+9^2-3^2 but it is NOT correct. Saying (x-y)^2 = x^2-y^2 isn't a true equation for all x and y. Again you have to simplify what is in the parenthesis first, and then you can square it. Or you must use the FOIL rule to expand out (9-3)^2
Answer:
She catered for 40 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the information given, you can write an equation that indicates that 30 people multiply for its cost that is $10 plus the number of people after 30 for its cost that is $9 is equal to $390. According to this, the equation is:
10(30)+9x= 390, where
x= number of people after 30
Then, you can solve for x:
300+9x= 390
9x=390-300
9x= 90
x=90/9
x=10
The answer is that she catered for 40 people, 30 people at a cost of $10 and 10 people for a cost of $9.
The even integer between them is their average value, -88/2 = -44.
Your two integers are -45 and -43.
