Hello I’m new here ! But I’m having trouble understanding how my teacher factored out the A from a-a(1.2^4)? And made it to A(1-

1.2^4)?
I attached a picture !

Thank you everyone :)

This is the distributive property:

<em>ab</em> + <em>ac</em> = <em>a</em> (<em>b</em> + <em>c</em>)

In this case, you have

<em>a</em> - <em>a</em> (1.2⁴)

and <em>a</em> is a common factor to both <em>a</em> and <em>a</em> (1.2)⁴, so you can pull it out as

<em>a</em> (1 - 1.2⁴)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>1. x² + 4 = (x+2)² </h3>

<h3> : x² + 4 = x² + 4 (Yes)</h3>

<h3>2. (2x+6)²= 4(x+3)²</h3>

<h3> : 4x²+36 = 4x² + 36 ( Yes)</h3>

<h3>3. (x-3)(x-3)= (x-9)² (NO)</h3>

<h3>beacause , True statement is</h3><h3> (x+3)(x-3)= (x-9)²</h3>

<h3>4. x²-10x+25 = (x-5)(x+5) (No)</h3>

<h3> : x²-2x+y² = (a-b)(a+b) </h3>

<h3>Therefore, its not true statement!</h3>

The midpoint of FG is (6-4) and the coordinates of point Fare (-3, 6) What are the coordinates of point G?

lora16 [44]

Answer:

(15,-14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The midpoint of FG is (6-4) and the corrdinates of F are (-3,6).

Let (x,y) be the coordinates of point G. Using mid point formula,

$\dfrac{x+(-3)}{2}=6\ \text{and}\ \dfrac{y+6}{2}=-4\\\\x-3=12\ \text{and}\ y+6=-8\\\\x=15,\ \text{and}\ y=-14$

So, the coordinates of G are (15,-14).

Which of the following points are on the line given by the equation y=1/2x

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

B, C, and F

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/2x

y = 1/2(4)

y = 2

y = 1/2x

y = 1/2(-2)

y = -1

y = 1/2x

y = 1/2(2)

y = 1

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the mean of the commute time to work for a resident of Boston, Massachusetts, is 27.3 minut

Bond [772]

Answer:

By the Chebyshev Theorem, at least 75% of commuters in Boston has a commute time within 2 standard deviations of the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

Chebyshev Theorem

The Chebyshev Theorem can also be applied to non-normal distribution. It states that:

At least 75% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

At least 89% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

An in general terms, the percentage of measures within k standard deviations of the mean is given by $100(1 - \frac{1}{k^{2}})$ .

What minimum percentage of commuters in Boston has a commute time within 2 standard deviations of the mean

By the Chebyshev Theorem, at least 75% of commuters in Boston has a commute time within 2 standard deviations of the mean
