Three students were given the expression shown to simplify.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Calvin: incorrect, sign error

Greg: incorrect, has no relationship to the given expression

Ruben: incorrect, sign error

Equivalent expresssion: 7 92(4x -11)

Explanation:

The two terms on the right, -8x and +22, have even coefficients, so a factor of 2 can be factored out. If we do that, then these two terms become ...

... 2(-8x/2 +22/2) = 2(-4x +11)

We could, instead, factor out -2 so the x-coefficient inside parentheses is positive:

... -2(-8x/-2 +22/-2) = -2(4x -11)

Note that the signs of the two terms inside parentheses are different no matter which way we do it.

Equivalent expressions

Calvin could have written: 7 -2(4x -11)

Ruben could have written: 7 +2(-4x +11)

Greg could have written: 8(2 -x) -1. He would have rearranged the expression to 16 -8x -1 before doing so.

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (3, 6) and (5, 3).
Temka [501]
(3,6)    (5,3)
(x1,y1)(x2,y2)

The slope equation is: y2-y1
                                 ---------
                                  x2-x1

Replace with numbers: 3-6/5-3

Minus 3 and 6 is equal to -3

Minus 5-3 is 2 

So the fraction is -3/2 (no need to divide because you can't simplify it)

So the slope is -3/2

For the equation you have to replace the letters by 0's 

3×0-2y=6
Times 3 and 0
0-2y=6
Now you want to get the y alone, so minus 0 from both sides 
   0-2y=6
  -0      -0

-2y=6

Divide -2y from the 6

-2y=6
----  ---
  -2   -2

y=3 

The y intercept is 3 with the slope of -3/2

diamong [38]

Answer:

<em>Eunice 3510; Suin 7020</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Eunice bought 585 beads.</em>

<em>Jennifer bought 6 times more than Eunice</em> but half of the total of beads Suin bought.

Eunice: 6 * 585 = 3510

Jennifer bought 6 times more than Eunice but <em>half of the total of beads Suin bought.</em>

<em>Suin: 3510 * 2 = 7020</em>

According to a survey of workers, 2/20 of them walk to work, 5/20 bike, 3/20 carpool, and 10/20 drive alone.
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

% of workers walk

10%

% of workers bike=

25%

% of workers carpool

15%

% of workers drive alone=

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

if you divide them you get the answer

like ex

2/20 is actually 2÷20 so you get 0.10 which is 10%

and if you add them all they equal to a 100 percent
