Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Distribute</u>

$2(3x - 1.75) - 3(1.5x - 2.5)$

$(2 * 3x) + (2 * -1.75) + (-3 * 1.5x) + (-3 * -2.5)$

$(6x) + (-3.5) + (-4.5x) + (7.5)$

<u>Step 2: Combine like terms</u>

$(6x - 4.5x) + (7.5 - 3.5)$

$1.5x + 4$

Answer: $1.5x + 4$

Which of the bar graphs could be used to represent the data shown by the histogram

serg [7]

Answer:

B (red)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a unimodal histogram since there is only one data set that is most represented. Meaning that the red data set would represent the entire histogram since it's the majority.

Hopefully this helps.

Sara and Sam are each working on a science project in which they need to research the individual masses of the nine planets (inc

makkiz [27]

Answer:

2000 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sara:

$Mercury = 3.302 * 10^{23$

$Saturn = 5.685 * 10^{26$

Sam:

$Mercury = 3.302 * 10^{29$

$Saturn = 5.685 * 10^{32$

To determine the number of times, the mass of Saturn is greater than the mass of Mercury, we simply do the following:

$Times = \frac{Saturn}{Mercury}$

Using Sara's measurement; this gives:

$Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^{26}}{3.302 * 10^{23}}$

Apply law of indices

$Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^{26-23}}{3.302}$

$Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^3}{3.302}$

$Times = 5.685/3.302 * 10^3$

$Times = 1.72 * 10^3$

Approximate

$Times = 2 * 10^3$

$Times = 2000$
