Using the distributive property simplify this -2(x-3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago
4 0

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

-2 (x-3)

By definition we have that the distributive property establishes that:

a (b + c) = ab + ac

So, if we have:

-2 (x-3)

We take into account the law of multiplication of signs:

- * + = -\\- * - = +

So:

-2 (x-3) = - 2x + 2 * 3 = -2x + 6

Answer:

-2x + 6

2. If you know the volume of a cube, how do you find its<br> edge length?<br> nel
MakcuM [25]

\huge\boxed{\sqrt[3]{\text{V}}}

The volume of a cube is found by cubing the edge length — or multiplying it by itself twice.

In other words, the volume of a cube is as follows:

V=e*e*e

Simplified:

V=e^3

To find the edge length from the volume, you'd have to do the opposite, which is to find the cubic root.

PLSSSS HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION!!!
AysviL [449]

Given,  

∠AOE = 30°

∠DOB = 40°

So, ∠EOD = 180 - (30+40)           [angles on a straight line]

                =  180 - 70

                =  110

∠EOD = ∠COF                             [ vertically opposite angle]

∴ ∠COF = 110°

Explain how to find the range of a data set. What is an advantage of using the range as a measure of​ variation? What is a​ disa
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

1) The range is found by subtracting the minimum data entry from the maximum data entry.

2)  It is easy to compute.

3)  It uses only two entries from the data set.    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

1) Range is difference between the highest value and the lowest value of the data.

  • To find the range we first arrange the data in the increasing order and then select the highest and the lowest value of the data, Then the lowest value is subtracted from the highest value to find the range.

Option A) The range is found by subtracting the minimum data entry from the maximum data entry.

2) Advantage of range as a measure of variation.

  • Since the method to calculate range of a data set is very easy, it is one of the advantages to use range as a method of variation.

Option B)  It is easy to compute.

3) Disadvantage of range to use as a method of variation.

  • The disadvantage of using range is that it does not measure the spread of the data set
  • It only measures the spread between highest and lowest data points in data set.

Option C) It uses only two entries from the data set.

<h3>Answer: Choice C) 421.9</h3>

=======================================

Explanation:

You're on the right track. You wrote down the proper expression to get the final answer, assuming you meant to write 75/4 as the third term inside the parenthesis. This works because each time you cut the side length in half to get each smaller triangle's side. The 3 is because there are 3 sides for each of the triangles. Much of this I have a feeling you already know as you wrote down the expression on the page, though I'm not 100% sure of your mindset. Computing this expression leads to 421.875 which rounds to 421.9

note: an alternative is to write 3*75 + 3*75/2 + 3*75/4 + 3*75/8, though that is more work. It's better to have that 3 factored out.
