Answer: B) 3+y+3

This can be simplified to y+6, but the current un-simplified expression has 3 terms.

======================================

Explanation:

Terms are separated by a plus sign. If you had something like 10x-5y, then you would write that as 10x+(-5y) showing that 10x and -5y are the two terms.

Choices A and C, xy and 6y respectively, have one term each. They are considered monomials. Mono = one, nomial = name.

Choice D is the product of the constant 3 and the binomial y+3. Binomials have two terms.

Only choice B has three terms, though we can simplify it down to two terms. I have a feeling your teacher doesn't want you to simplify it.

Ignore above
your equation is 2(cosx)^2-3cosx+1=0
use quadratic formula to get results
you will end up with
cosx=1 or cosx=1/2
so, x=0 or x=pi/3

1. A rabbit can hop 6 feet in 2 seconds and 12 feet in 4 seconds. If the number of feet varies directly with the time the rabbit

kykrilka [37]

Answer: The rabbit is hopping at 3 feet/ sec in speed

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let the The number of feet of the rabbit be expressed as N

AND time rabbit spends hopping can be expressed as t

From the question, The number of feet varies directly with the time rabbit spends hopping can be expressed as

N α t

Let us introduce a constant of proportionality ,S which represents speed in this case, we now have that

N = St

STEP 2 -- SOLVING

If the rabbit hop 6 feet in 2 seconds, Then speed =

N = St

6= S X2

S = 6/ 2

S = 3

also

If the rabbit hop 12 feet in 4 seconds, Then speed =

N = St

12= S X 4

S = 12/ 4

S = 3

Also recall

that Speed = Distance / time

Pluging the values in the first case,

speed = 6 feet/ 2 secconds = 3 feet/ seconds

in the second case

Speed= 12 feet/ 4 second s= 3 feet/ secs.

If 57 is added to a number, it will be 4 times as large as it was originally. Find the number.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X will refer to the number.

X+57( the number added to the original.)=4x. (x time 4)

X+57=4x.

Subtract x from both sides to get the variable on one side.

(X+57)-x =(4x)-x

57=3x. You would then divide by 3 on both sides to again get integer isolated.

57/3=3/3x.

57/3=19. 3/3=1.

19=x.

Pls answer this ASAP I need it by the end of the day

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate sinA and sinB.

sinA = opposite / hypotenuse = 12 / 20

sinB = opposite / hypotenuse = 16 / 20

Since 12 / 20 ≠ 16 / 20, she is incorrect.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
