Since there are no multiples other than 1 and -1 that could multiply in any way to equal 1, those are the only numbers you can really work with
it is a possibility that a, b, and c could equal 1 but then it would go wrong when comes time to subtract since all numbers are equal and cannot subtract largest from smallest.
a logical approach would be to try -1, -1, and 1 since -1 * -1 = 1 and then 1* 1 =1
we can make a= -1 , b= -1, and c= 1
(we need b to equal -1 so that we get an answer of -1 opposed to if we made a=-1 and c=-1, all outcomes would equal 1)
-1²=1
-1³=-1
1⁴= 1
since 1 is the largest possible outcome and -1 is the lowest possible outcome you should subtract the two
1-(-1) = 1+1 = 2
The answer should be D: 2
hoped this helped at all!
Answer:
A (a = 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
A coordinate point is always in the form (x,y) that means the first point is always x-coordinate and the second point is always y-coordinate.
The equation given is:
5x + y = 8
The point is (a,3), so that means x = a and y = 3
We substitute the values into the equation and find a. Shown below:
5x + y = 8
5(a) + (3) = 8
5a + 3 = 8
5a = 8 - 3
5a = 5
a = 5/5
a = 1
Answer choice A is right

As long as you start our with an even number of trikes, you'll find a way to use up all the tires with no remainders.
answer is C. 252 ft^2
split the figure into two pieces and first figure out the rectangle (shown in turquoise).
If you multiply the width and length (18*6) you should get 108.
Then figure out the trapezoid (in magenta). the formula is (a+b)/2*h where a and b are the bases and h is the height. the bases are given, 6 and 18. to find the height, subtract the entire figure's height by 6, which is 18-6 and gives us 12. so the formula converted to this problem is (6+18)/2*12. simplify parenthesis and get 24/2*12. 24/2=12, so multiply 12*12. The area of the trapezoid is 144. Add the areas of both figures together and get 252.
