Answer:

The student incorrectly used the Distributive property!

Step-by-step explanation:

The Distributive property says a(b+c)=ab+ac

In this problem the answer SHOULD be 3n-15, however the <u>student forgot to distribute the 3 to the -5</u>!

Answer: The student did not distribute correctly

Step-by-step explanation: The student did not distribute correctly. The student has 3n correct because he multiplied 3 by n but -5 is not correct. He was supposed to distribute the 3 to the -5 to get -15.

Refer to the figure. Barton Road and Olive Tree Lane
Fantom [35]

Angles at right-angle add up to 90 degrees

The measure of acute angle Tryon Street forms with Barton Road is <em>33 degrees</em>

The angle is given as:

\mathbf{A = 57^o} ---- <em>Angle formed by Tryon Street with Olive Tree Lane. </em>

The measure of the acute angle formed by Tryon Street with Barton Road (B) is calculated using:

\mathbf{A + B = 90} ---- angle at right-angle

Make B the subject

\mathbf{B = 90 - A}

Substitute 57 for A

\mathbf{B = 90 - 57}

\mathbf{B = 33}

Hence, the measure of acute angle is 33 degrees

Agent Bond is standing on a bridge, 13.5 m above the road below, and his pursuers are getting too close for comfort. He spots a
Scrat [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Eek!  Let's give this a go. Things we know:

acceleration of Bond in free fall is -9.8 m/s/s

velocity of the truck is 25 m/s

displacement Bond will travel when he jumps is -10 m

What we are looking for is the time it will take him to hit the top of the truck, knowing that the truck can travel from one pole to the next in 1 second.

Our displacement equation is

Δx = v₀t + 1/2at²

Filling in we have

-10=25t+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2

Simplifying we get

-10=25t-4.9t^2

This is a quadratic that needs to be solved however you personally solve quadratics.  When you do that, you find that the times it will take Bond to drop that displacement is either -.37 seconds or 5.47 seconds.  Many things in physics can be negative, like velocity and acceleration, but time NEVER will be.  So it takes Bond 5.5 seconds to drop to the roof of the moving truck.  That means that he needs to jump when the truck is between the 5th and the 6th poles away from him.

Good luck with this!

Cheers!
