Plug in "8i + 15j + k" for "f", and "2i – 5j + 9k" for "e"

3(8i + 15j + k) - 2(2i – 5j + 9k)

Distribute 3 to (8i + 15j + k) & - 2 to (2i – 5j + 9k)

3(8i + 15j + k) = 24i + 45j + 3k

-2(2i - 5j + 9k) = -4i + 10j - 18k

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Simplify. Combine like terms

24i - 4i + 45j + 10j + 3k - 18k

(24i - 4i) + (45j + 10j) + (3k - 18k)

20i + 55j - 15k is your answer, or (C)

3f – 2e

Plug in 2i – 5j + 9k for e and 8i + 15j + k for f

3(8i + 15j + k) - 2(2i – 5j + 9k)

Distribute 3 and 2 inside their respective parentheses

(24i + 45j + 3k) - (4i - 10j + 18k)

Now distribute -1 (negative sign) inside the parentheses on the right

(24i + 45j + 3k) - 4i + 10j - 18k

Combine like terms

20i + 55j - 15k is your answer (third choice down)

What is the probability that a standard number cube will show a two, five, or six when it is rolled?

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

$p=0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard die has six numbers (1 through 6). That means there is a 1/6 probability of rolling any one number. There is a 3/6 probability of rolling one of the selected numbers which simplifies to 1/2 or 0.50

Write 45 as a product of prime factors.

Marina CMI [18]

First, we determine the factors of 45. We can immediately note that 45 is the product of 9 and 5. Out of 9 and 5, 9 can further be expressed into the product of 3 and 3. The prime factorization therefore is,
45 = 3 x 3 x 5
Since the factors in the right-hand side of the equation are already prime numbers then, this factorization can no longer be written in simpler forms.

Jay is copying an angle. His work so far is shown below. Explain the importance of his next step, which is placing the point of

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

your answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose here, we'll call the missing point on the arc through Z point X.

Essentially, you want to make ΔXYZ ≅ ΔLMN by SSS. The construction so far ensures LM ≅ MN ≅ XY ≅ YZ. By copying the length LN to XZ, you ensure the congruence of the remaining sides of the triangles.

Then ∠XYZ ≅ ∠LMN because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

In short, XZ needs to be the same distance as LN.
