Answer:

Piper's claim that 3(2a+2) is equal to 5a +6 is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to use the distributive property to distribute the 3 to BOTH the 2a and 2. The resulting expression is 6a+6 NOT 5a+6. Piper's mistake was most probably that she added 3 and 2 to get 5 instead of multiplying them together to get 6.

If m RDC = 120°, then m DAC=?
monitta
The correct answer to this question is 240

From the image i've seen, the RDC has an angle of 120. So the major arc DC (that passes A and B) has an angle of 240.

So this makes that the measure of the angle of DAC is 240 because of the angle formed by RDC which is 120.

How do i solve x squared = 4x -5
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

x = 2 ±i

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 4x-5

Subtract 4x from each side

x^2 - 4x = 4x-5 -4x

x^2 - 4x= -5

Complete the square

Take the coefficient of the x term, divide by 2 and square it

-4/2 =2   2^2 =4

Add 4 to each side

x^2 -4x+4 = -5 +4

The left side is (x-coefficient of the x term/2)^2

(x-2)^2 = -1

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-2)^2) = sqrt(-1)

x-2 = ±i

Add 2 to each side

x-2+2 = 2 ±i

x = 2 ±i

A sporting goods store charges $30 for 12 cans of tennis balls and $45 for two boxes of golf balls. A coach orders100 cans of te
aliya0001 [1]
362.50 for tennis and golf balls.
To find the answer divide the dollar amount by how many cans or boxes each cost then multiply that answer by the total amount purchased.
Golf balls
45/2=22.50 each box
22.5*5=112.50 total
Tennis balls
30/12=2.50 each can
2.50*100 = 250.00
add the dollar amounts  together
112.50+250.00 =362.50
