3 0

I am looking at ur first answer choice.....but something is off..
2^-4 = 1/(2^4) = 1/(2*2*2*2) = 1/16...this is correct

but ur answer choice says 2^-4 = 1/(2^-4)...and its supposed to equal 1/(2^4).
But I still think ur answer choice is A

Marina CMI [18]

Answer: $y=3x-17$

Step-by-step explanation:

use point-slope form:

$y_{1} -y=m(x_{1} -x)$

$y-1=3(x-6)$

$y-1=3x-18$

$y=3x-17$

9514 1404 393

Answer:

1725 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is ...

A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

Here, the bases are given as 65 ft and 50 ft, and the height is 30 ft. Then the area is ...

A = 1/2(65 ft +50 ft)(30 ft) = (1/2)(115 ft)(30 ft) = 1725 ft²

You tell the salesman your lawn area is 1725 square feet.

What is half of the product of 8 1/7 and 7 4/5

UNO [17]

First we must convert these mixed numbers to improper fractions:

$8\frac{1}{7}=\frac{57}{7}$

$7\frac{4}{5}=\frac{39}{5}$

So then we need the product of these two numbers. That means to multiply:

$\frac{57}{7}* \frac{39}{5}= \frac{2,223}{35}$

But then we need the value of half of this product. So then let's multiply by one-half:

$\frac{2,223}{35} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{2,223}{70}$

Then we can convert this from an improper fraction to a mixed number:

$\frac{2,223}{70} =31\frac{53}{70}$

And so this number is half of the product of the initial two numbers.

What is the expression in factored form? 9 x 2 − 4

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

(3x - 2)(3x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² - 4 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

Thus

9x² - 4

= (3x)² - 2²

= (3x - 2)(3x + 2) ← in factored form
