Mathematics

Fofino [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: It will always be n-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two examples:

▪-----▪-----▪

3 collinear points --> 2 segments

▪-----▪-----▪-----▪-----▪-----▪

6 collinear points --> 5 segments

It is n MINUS one because the last point does not make another segment.

What is 7 (1+10p) + 8 (1 + 6p)
Komok [63]

Answer:

58p+15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we want to get rid of the parentheses in the equation. To do that, let's start with 7(1+10p). We multiply 7 by each item in the parenthesis, and get 7+70p. Keep that little thing in mind, we will use it later. Next, same process with the other part, and we get 8+48p. We multiplied both parts out, so now we just add like terms. 7 and 8 don't have letters, so we add them to get 15. 10p and 48p do have letters, so we add those together and get 58p. We can't add that to the other numbers, because 58p is 58 times p, and 15 doesn't have that p so it wouldn't work without knowing p. What we are left with, by simplifying the problem, is 58p+15, or 15+58p. The order doesn't matter, as long as you have that answer.

If x an integer and 2x +8 &lt;22 and 3x &gt;9, how many possible values of x are there?
koban [17]

Answer:

3 values

Step-by-step explanation:

2x +8 <22 and 3x >9

Solve the two inequalities separately and then put them back together

2x +8 <22

Subtract 8 from each side

2x +8-8 <22 -8

2x < 14

Divide by 2

2x/2 < 14/2

x < 7

Then solve the second inequality

3x>9

Divide by 3

3x/3>9/3

x >3

Putting them back together

x>3 and x < 7

Since it has to be an integer

4,5,6  are possible choices

3 values
