<span>(4k + 5) (k + 1) = 0

Before you rush off and start trying to do complicated things with that equation,
put your pencil down, fold your hands in your lap, and sit and look at it for a while.
Keep looking at it until a little voice yells out "Hey !  That's a true statement if
either </span><span>(4k + 5) is zero  or  </span><span><span>(k+1) is zero.  THEN go to work on it.

(4k + 5 = 0)
4k = -5
<u>k = -5/4</u>

(k + 1 = 0)
<u>k = -1</u>

And there are the two solutions to that equation.

Answer:

a. ∆ABC ~ ∆A'B'C'

b. Enlargement

c. Scale factor = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. <A corresponds to <A'

<B corresponds to <B'

<C corresponds to <C',

Therefore, the similarity statement would be: ∆ABC ~ ∆A'B'C'

b. The image of the dilation is an enlargement of the original figure because the side lengths of ∆A'B'C are larger than the corresponding side lengths of ∆ABC.

c. Scale factor = the ratio of the corresponding sides

Thus:

Scale factor = A'B'/AB = B'C'/BC = A'C'/AC

Scale factor = 24/6 = 48/12 = 60/15 = 4

Scale factor = 4

Lee has 3 children, the oldest is twice as old as the oungest, the middle is 5 years older than the youngest, the sum of the chi
tangare [24]
Oldest = 2x
Middle = x + 5
Youngest = x

2x + x + 5 + x = 57
combine like terms

4x + 5 = 57
subtract 5 from both sides

4x = 52
divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x = 13

Oldest = 2x = 2(13) = 26
Middle = x + 5 = 13 + 5 = 18
Youngest = x = 13

Contact [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that latitude and longitude describe locations on the Earth with respect to the equator and prime meridian.

Latitude High Temp

("N)  

 

12 53

 

16 41

 

30 67

 

36 63

 

32 70

 

11 58

 

10 61

 

33 67

 

30 72

 

 

Slope 0.732

Int -21.56266667

Regression line is y = 0.732x-21.563 where x represents the latitude and y high temperature

Since slope = 0.732, we get temp increases by 0.8 degree for 1 degree increasenorth in latitude

Hence option c is right

Jade says that the absolute value of a number and the opposite of a number is the same thing. Is Jade correct? Use examples to h
avanturin [10]

Answer:

No, the absolute value of a number is different from the opposite.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, the absolute value of 4 is 4.

l4l = 4

But the opposite of 4 is -4.

Absolute value is ALWAYS positive, but the opposite of a positive number is a negative number.
