250/974 = x/40,000...250 opposed to 974 total = x opposed to 40,000 total
cross multiply because this is a proportion
974x = 10,000,000
x = 10,000,000/974
x = 10266.94 rounds to 10,267 <==

Plug it into a graphing calculator and see where the function crosses the x-axis. Since it’s a quadratic it will cross it two times but one of the answers is negative—obviously it wouldn’t take negative second to hit the ground. It should take 9 seconds for the object to hit the ground.

What is 15% of 60?? Can someone plz tell me how to calculate this as well??? Thanks!!!
earnstyle [38]
To convert a percentage to a decimal you move the decimal two places to the left. Therefore:

15.% becomes .15

You then multiply this decimal to the number you are trying to find the percentage of.

.15 × 60 = 9.

9 is 15% of 60.

Which of the following is not a polynomial identity?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A

a² - b² = (a+ b)(a - b)

It's a polynomial identity.

Option B

a³ + b³ = (a - b)(a² - ab + b²)

It's not a polynomial identity.

Because the identity is,

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

Option C

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)

It's a polynomial identity.

Option D

(a²+ b²)(c² + d²) = (ac - bd)² + (ad + bc)²

                         = a²c² - 2abcd + b²d² + a²d² + b²c² + 2abcd

                         = a²c² + b²c² + b²d² + a²d²

                         = c²(a² + b²) + d²(a² + b²)

                         = (a²+ b²)(c² + d²)

Therefore, it's a polynomial identity.

Option B will be the answer.

i need to find the distance between the points,round to the nearest tenth show work please this is my last question!!
natka813 [3]

Answer:

4.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming 1 grid box = 1 units, the coordinates of the two points are (-1, -1) and (2, 2).

Apply distance formula d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} to find the distance between (-1, -1) and (2, 2).

Let,

(-1, -1) = (x_1, y_1)

(2, 2) = (x_2, y_2)

Plug in the values

d = \sqrt{(2 - (-1))^2 + (2 - (-1))^2}

d = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (3)^2}

d = \sqrt{9 + 9}

d = \sqrt{18}

d = 4.2 (to the nearest tenth)
