We know that Step 1 is correct, because it is just a restatement of the equation. Therefore, we can eliminate Step 1:
2(5y – 2) = 12 + 6y
In Step 2, the student tried using the Distributive Property. The Distributive Property can be written as one of the two following formulas:
a(b + c) = ab + ac
a(b – c) = ab – ac
In this case, we'll use the second formula. Substitute any known values into the equation above and simplify:
2(5y – 2) = 2(5y) – 2(2)
2(5y – 2) = 10y – 4
In Step 2, the student calculated 2(5y – 2) to equal 7y – 4. However, we have just proven that 2(5y – 2) is equal to 10y – 4.
The student first made an error in Step 2, and the correct step is:
Step 2: 10y – 4 = 12 + 6y
I hope this helps!
Lines A and B are parallel to each other. Lines B and E are perpendicular to each other.
Answer:
(-2, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi Juliadayx! How are you?
Well, maybe you already heard about the domain and the range of a function.
The domain is the set of values that the independent variable can take (usually referred to as the letter "x"), while the range is the set of values that the dependent variable takes, which is called f(x) or function of x.
In this case, the exercise asks you to evaluate for which values of “x” (right column of the table), the function “f(x)” takes positive values (left column of the table), the positive values also include zero. And in this case you can see that the function f(x) is only positive for the values of "x": -2, -1, 0 and 1. Therefore, the answer is the entire interval (-2, 1).
I hope I've been helpful!
