Ali's solution is incorrect.

Ali had to add both the terms and should get 10y answer, and not multiply both terms and get answer 9y^2 which is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ali simplifies the expression 9y+y to 9y2. We need to identify if Ali's solution is correct or incorrect.

Ali's solution is incorrect.

Reason:

We are given the expression: 9y+y

When we add two like terms ( terms having the same variable and exponent), we add the coefficients of both like terms.

In our case 9y+y = 10y

Whereas Ali has done multiplication of both terms and not addition.

In multiplication we add the exponents of the same variables i.e 9y+y = 9y^2

So, Ali had to add both the terms and should get 10y answer, and not multiply both terms and get answer 9y^2 which is wrong.

Answer:

ali's solution is incorrect

9y+y is the same as 9y+1y

9y^2 is the same as 9y x y

9y+y simplifies to 10y.

Fiona wrote the linear equation y = 2/5 x – 5. When Henry wrote his equation, they discovered that his equation had all the same
Hoochie [10]

we have

y=\frac{2}{5}x-5

Let's Isolate the variable y in each of the cases and then compare with Fiona's equation  to determine the solution of the problem

case A) x-\frac{5}{4}y= \frac{25}{4}

Multiply by 4 both sides

4x-5y= 25

5y=4x-25

Divide by 5 both sides

y=\frac{4}{5}x-5

therefore

the case A) is not equal to Fiona's equation

case B) x-\frac{5}{2}y= \frac{25}{4}

Multiply by 4 both sides

4x-10y= 25

10y=4x-25

Divide by 10 both sides

y=\frac{2}{5}x-2.5

therefore

the case B) is not equal to Fiona's equation

case C) x-\frac{5}{4}y= \frac{25}{2}

Multiply by 4 both sides

4x-5y= 50

5y=4x-50

Divide by 5 both sides

y=\frac{4}{5}x-10

therefore

the case C) is not equal to Fiona's equation

case D) x-\frac{5}{2}y= \frac{25}{2}

Multiply by 2 both sides

2x-5y= 25

5y=2x-25

Divide by 5 both sides

y=\frac{2}{5}x-5

therefore

the case D) is  equal to Fiona's equation

<u>the answer is</u>

x-\frac{5}{2}y= \frac{25}{2}

5. Given the equation y = (1/4) cos[(2pi/3)*theta]:
5a. For the general equation y = a cos(bx), the period is given by 2pi/b. In this equation, b = 2pi/3, so this means that 2pi/b = 2pi/(2pi/3) = 3. Therefore, the period of this equation is 3, and the cosine wave repeats itself every 3 x-units.
5b. For the general equation y = a cos(bx), the amplitude is given by a. Therefore the amplitude is a = 1/4, and this means that the cosine wave's range is from -1/4 to 1/4 for all values of x.
5c. The equation of the midline is y = 0. This represents the average value over the wave. This is determined by adding the highest and lowest values of the range and taking the average, in this case, 1/4 + (-1/4) = 0, and 0 / 2 = 0. Another way to do this is using the general equation y = a cos(bx) + c, where the midline's equation is y = c. In this case, there is no value of c in the given, implying that c = 0, and the midline is y = 0.

6. Let the horizontal distance be x. Then tan42 = h/x, and h = x tan42. Then using the Pythagorean theorem: 3280^2 = h^2 + x^2
3280^2 = x^2 (tan42)^2 + x^2
3280^2 = x^2 [(tan42)^2 + 1]
x = 2437.52
Therefore, h = x tan42 = 2,194.75 ft.

200 + 20x ≥ 500 I don't get these
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

x ≥ 15

Step-by-step explanation:

200 + 20x ≥ 500

To solve this inequality, you must first subtract 200 from 500.

500 - 200 = 300.

Lastly, divide 300 by 20.

20x = 300

300 ÷ 20 = 15

Therefore, the value of x is 15.
