What expression represents the product of 3 less than twice x and 2 more than the quantity 3 times x?
Georgia [21]
"3 less than twice 'x' " . . . . that's (2x - 3)

" 2 more than the quantity (3 x) " . . . . . that's (3x + 2)

Their product is
                               (2x - 3) (3x + 2) .

If you want to expand it to a single expression, perform the multiplication,
and you have
                            6x² - 5x - 6  .

Andrew is painting a wall on the side of his house. He has a 20 foot ladder wich makes a 79 degree angle with the ground. Standi
torisob [31]

Andrew can reach a maximum of 24.6ft high up the wall.

The right-angled triangle formed can be solved using the sine ratio. that is

sin(72^\circ})=\dfrac{h}{20}

where h is the distance from the foot of the wall to the tip of the ladder where it rests on the wall. Substituting, and solving for h, we get

0.9816=\dfrac{h}{20}\\\\h=20\times0.9816\\\\h=19.632ft

Since Andrew can reach an extra 5ft above the point where the ladder rests against the wall, the maximum height Andrew can paint is

(19.632+5)ft=24.632ft\\\\\approx24.6ft

Find the value of each variable
kondaur [170]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C

a = 10√3, b = 5√3, c = 15 and d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The angles of a right angled triangle, 30°, 60° and 90° then sides are in the ratio, 1: √3 : 2

<u>To find the value of variables</u>

From the figure we can see 2 right angled triangle with angle 30, 60 and 90

we get, d= 5 then b = 5√3

b = 5√3  the c = 5√3 * √3 = 15

and a = 2 * 5√3 = 10√3

Therefore the correct answer is option C

a = 10√3, b = 5√3, c = 15 and d = 5

Which of these statements are correct about a line segment with a length of 12 units in a coordinate plane? Select all that appl
Vitek1552 [10]

Correct statements are:

If it is reflected across the y-axis, its length still will be 12 units.

If it is rotated 270° about the origin, its length still will be 12 units.

If it is translated 15 units up, its length still will be 12 units.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Whatever it may be rotation, reflection or translation, the size of the line will never change. So length of the line is same as 12 units in the image.

So the wrong statements are

If its reflected across y = -x then the length will no longer be 12 units.

If it is rotated 90° about the origin, then the length will no longer be 12 units.

If it is translated 18 units to the right,  then the length will no longer be 12 units.
