Mathematics

Answer: 32,000

Step-by-step explanation:

the thousands place (1000) is the fourth number to the left of the decimal, so round that one either up or down based on the number just one spot closer to the decimal, in this case, the hundreds place (100).

so we have 32,420

we can ignore the numbers that are going to become zeros as a result of the rounding . .

32,400

let's round 32,XXX either up or down based on the value in the hundreds place. if that value is 5 or greater, than we round up. if it is less than 5, than we round down.

4 is in the hundreds place, so we round down

32,000 is the answer

Hope this helps!!! Good luck!!! ;)

A quadrilateral has vertices A, B, C, and D. A line of reflection is drawn so that A is 6 units away from the line, B is 4 units

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The correct option is O B'

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a quadrilateral with vertices A, B, C and D. A line of reflection is drawn so that A is 6 units away from the line, B is 4 units away from the line, C is 7 units away from the line and D is 9 units away from the line.

Now we perform the reflection and we obtain a new quadrilateral A'B'C'D'.

In order to apply the reflection to the original quadrilateral ABCD, we perform the reflection to all of its points, particularly to its vertices.

Wherever we have a point X and a line of reflection L and we perform the reflection, the new point X' will keep its original distance from the line of reflection (this is an important concept in order to understand the exercise).

I will attach a drawing with an example.

Finally, we only have to look at the vertices and its original distances to answer the question.

The vertice that is closest to the line of reflection is B (the distance is 4 units). We answer O B'

identify and equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y=-1/2x-7 that passes through (-3,-2)

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

y +2 = 2(x +3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in point-slope form for a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

y -k = m(x -h)

The slope of your given line is the coefficient of x, -1/2. The slope of a perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(-1/2) = 2. So, you have m = 2, (h, k) = (-3, -2), and your desired equation is ...

y -(-2) = 2(x -(-3)) . . . . . . which can be simplified to ...

y +2 = 2(x +3)

Using long division to find the quotient, what changes do you first

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$\frac{125x^3 - 8}{5x - 2} = 25x^2 + 10x +4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Dividend = 125x^3 - 8$

$Divisor = 5x - 2$

Required

Determine the quotient

See attachment for complete process.

First, divide 125x^3 by 5x

$\frac{125x^3}{5x} =25x^2$

Write $25x^2$ at the top

Multiply $5x - 2$ by $25x^2$

$= 125x^3 - 50x^2$

Subtract from 125x^3 - 8

i.e.

$125x^3 - 8 - (125x^3 - 50x^2) = 50x^2 - 8$

Step 2:

Divide 50x^2 by 5x

$\frac{50x^2}{5x} = 10x$

Write $10x$ at the top

Multiply $5x - 2$ by $10x$

$= 50x^2 - 20x$

Subtract from 50x^2 - 8

i.e.

$50x^2 - 8 - (50x^2 - 20x) = 20x - 8$

Step 3:

Divide 20x by 5x

$\frac{20x}{5x} = 4$

Write $4$ at the top

Multiply $5x - 2$ by $4$

$= 20x - 8$

Subtract from 20x - 8

i.e.

$20x - 8 - (20x - 8) = 0$

Hence:

$\frac{125x^3 - 8}{5x - 2} = 25x^2 + 10x +4$

The Thompson family is buying a car that can travel 70 miles on two gallons of gas. Assume that the distance traveled in miles y

artcher [175]

70/2 = 35

The car gets 35 miles per gallons.

You can also find that out by looking at the slope of the equation. y = 35x. 35 is the slope here.

For your graph, plot the points:
(0,0)
(1,35)
(2,70)
(3,105)
(4,140)
(5,175)
(6,210)
(7,245)
(8,280)

And then draw a line through the points.
