Simplify 12edf – 13def. State a property that you can use.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago

Answer:

-def. In multiplication, the order doesn't matter.

Step-by-step explanation:

A crucial property you can use to simplify this is the fact that, in multiplication, order doesn't matter.

3 * 2 = 6

2 * 3 = 6

5 * 2 * 3 = 30

2 * 3 * 5 = 30

3 * 2 * 5 = 30

Thus,

edf, or

e * d * f

is the same as def,

d * e * f

e * d * f = d * e * f

edf = def

Thus, 12edf is the same as 12def. We can put this in our expression:

12edf - 13def

12def - 13def

Now, we can see that this will equal -1def or -def

12def - 13def

-1def

-def

Answer: -def. In multiplication, the order doesn't matter.

What is the solution to the equation below? Round your answer to two decimal places. log5 x=2.1
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

D. x=29.37

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question you have to understand how log work. Log is the abbreviation of logarithm and it works as an inverse function of exponentiation.  

The rules should be like this:

 

log_{a} b = c\\a^{c} = b\\

Variable a in the equation is called base. If it left empty you can assume its base 10. The log in this question using 5 as a base. Variable b will be x and variable c will be 2.1

Now, let's change the variable of the equation using the information from the question.  

log_{a} b = c\\\log_{5} x = 2.1\\5^{2.1} = x\\x= log_5}^{-1}2.1\\x=29.365473577\\x=29.37

The arithmetic sequence a_ia i ​ a, start subscript, i, end subscript is defined by the formula: a_1 = 15a 1 ​ =15a, start subsc
daser333 [38]

Answer:

-1,512,390

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a1 = 15

a_i = a_{i-1} -7

Let us generate the first three terms of the sequence

a_2 = a_{2-1}-7\\a_2 = a_1 - 7\\a_2 = 15-7\\a_2 = 8

For a_3

a_3 = a_{3-1}-7\\a_3 = a_2 - 7\\a_3 = 8-7\\a_3 = 1

Hence the first three terms ae 15, 8, 1...

This sequence forms an arithmetic progression with;

first term a = 15

common difference d = 8 - 15 = - -8 = -7

n is the number of terms = 660 (since we are looking for the sum of the first 660 terms)

Using the formula;

S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]\\

Substitute the given values;

S_{660} = \frac{660}{2}[2(15) + (660-1)(-7)]\\S_{660} = 330[30 + (659)(-7)]\\S_{660} = 330[30 -4613]\\S_{660} = 330[-4583]\\S_{660} = -1,512,390

Hence the sum of the first 660 terms of the sequence is  -1,512,390

How do I solve this? help please! xx
Anna35 [415]
This graph is composed of four straight line segments.  You'll need to determine the slope, y-intercept and domain for each of them.   Look at the first segment, the one on the extreme left.  Verify yourself that the slope of this line segment is 1 and that the y-intercept would be 0 if you were to extend this segment all the way to the y-axis.  Thus, the rule (formula, equation) for this line segment would be f(x)=1x+0, or just f(x)=x, for (-3,-1).  Use a similar approach to write rules for the remaining three line segments.

Present your answer like this:
               x, (-3,-1)
f(x) =      -1, (-1,0)
