Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+4y=24 multiplied by 2 equals: 6x+8y=48

if you subtract 6x+8y=24 from 6x+8y=48, you get 0=24, which is not true. Therefore the statement is false.

Write a function number_of_pennies() that returns the total number of pennies given a number of dollars and (optionally) a numbe

seraphim [82]

Ok, first of all, it is important to understand that this function would depend on 2 variables; the number of dollars (x) and the number of pennies (y). Every dollar is equivalent to 100 pennies. So, if we are given x dollars, we have 100*x pennies. If we also have y pennies, we still get y pennies. We need to add these two to get the total amount of pennies. Thus, the correct function is:
f(x,y)=100*x+y

You deck has an area of 128 square feet. After adding a section, the are will be s by the power of 2+128 square feet. Draw a dia

irga5000 [103]

You are adding s^2 to your 128 ft^2. s^2 is a common representation of a square. So you could think of it as adding an area of a square of side "s" to your deck.

So one way of drawing it is to draw a rectangle with area 128 ft^2 and attaching a square to one of its side. The square that is attached has a side lenght of "s."

The expression p/x^2 - 5x +6 simplifies to x+4/x-2. Which expression doees p represent?

gladu [14]

We know that
(ad)/(bd)=d/d time a/b=a/b since d's cancel
also
if a/b=c/d in simplest form, then a=c and b=d

we have
p/(x^2-5x+6)=(x+4)/(x-2)
therefor

p/(x^2-5x+6)=d/d times (x+4)/(x-2)
p/(x^2-5x+6)=d(x+4)/d(x-2)

therefor
p=d(x+4) and
x^2-5x+6=d(x-2)

we can solve last one
factor
(x-6)(x+1)=d(x-2)
divide both sides by (x-2)
[(x-6)(x+1)]/(x-2)=d
sub

p=d(x+4)
p=([(x-6)(x+1)]/(x-2))(x+4)
$p= \frac {(x-6)(x+1)(x+4)}{(x-2)}$

PLS HELP ME WITH THIS !!

Mashutka [201]

Part 1:
180 = 5p+98 + 9p-2
180 = 14p + 96
84 = 14p
6 = p

part 2:
angle S will be the same as angle Q, so:
9p-2
9(6)-2
54-2
