18. equivalent
16x5 does equal 10x8
19. equivalent
13-0 does equal 0
20. Not equivalent
12-2 doesn’t not equal 7-3
For all three of these equations you have to use PEMDAS (systems of equations) so first you solve everything that’s in parentheses, then any exponents, followed by multiplication,division,addition, and lastly subtraction. You MUST follow that order to get the correct answer.
The area of a triangle is base length x height then divide all by 2,
so 12 x 10 /2
=60 ft²
These are pretty easy once you get the concept.
think of <em>random letter</em> (x) as the term y, so in the case of p(x)=-3+4x, its just asking what is y when x equals all those values.
so p(-2) = -3 + 4(-2), since its asking to plug in -2 for x, which equals -11
p(0) = -3 + 4(0)
= -3
p(5) = -3 + 4(5)
= 17
Lets see together how it gets done
120 180
160 200
200 220
240 240
so the answer is 3 months
