Answer:11
It is 11 because the lines beside the numbers represent ABSOLUTE VALUE. Absolute value basically means that wether or not it is a positive or negative number it will always be positive. Simplify-6+5=11
Answer: Part A is 2 and 6 Part B is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: Here is the explanation. So, you started at with the expression 3x^2+8x+4 and when you're are factoring, you have 3x^2+px+pq+4. You can substitute the p and q for 6 and 2. What they did is they replaced 8x with px+qx. To get 8x, p needs to be 6 and q needs to be 2, or the other way around. TIP: The numbers just have to add up to 8 on this one. It doesn't have to be 6 and 2.
Part B: Here is what I got so far... 3x(x+r) is 3x^2+3xr. Also, s(x+r) is sx+sr. The equation becomes, 3x^2+3xr+sx+sr. R can be 2 and s can be 2. Here is my reasoning: The original expression was 3x^2+8x+4. We already have the 3x^2, so now we need to find what the others are by determining what r and s equal. R and s can both be 2 to make four. 2x2 is 4. Let's see if it can make 8. 3xr becomes 6x and sx becomes 2x. 6x+2x is 8x.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Minimum - 8.1 inches
Maximum - 8.35 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The specifications for manufacturing a steel rod stipulate that the length must be 8.225 ± 0.125 inches.
This means that the minimum length must not be 0.125 inches less than 8.225 inches and the maximum length must not be 0.125 inches greater than 8.225 inches.
The minimum length is therefore:
8.225 - 0.125 = 8.1 inches
The maximum length is therefore:
8.225 + 0.125 = 8.35 inches
