Answer:

It is actually -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

((-3) / 5) + ((-2) / 5) her problem should be set up like this. She just plain out did -3/5+-2/5 and that is not what your supposed to do.

The Caesar Cipher of the sentence "THIS MESSAGE IS TOP SECRET."
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:  Option 'a' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

"THIS MESSAGE IS TOP SECRET."

We need to use the Caesar cipher.

As in general we always take a shift of 3 keys in Caesar cipher.

so, According to shift of 3 keys it becomes,

T→W

H→K

I→L

S→V

M→P

E→H

A→D

G→J

O→R

C→F

R→U

P→S

So, it can be written as

"THIS MESSAGE IS TOP SECRET."

WKLVP HVVDJ HLVWR SVHFU  HW.

we make a set of 5 letters in a word after Caesar cypher.

Hence, Option 'a' is correct.

for a special concert by a popular band, the concert hall owner decided to charge $20 per ticket for the first "r" rows and $15
Alecsey [184]
R = 16 according to the problem, so the total amount of income will be:
$20*16 + $15*(40 - 16)
= $320 + <span>$15*(24)
= </span>$320 + <span>$360
= $680
that is the income, but the expenses are $275 so the total revenue is the subtraction of those two
total revenue = $680 - $275
= $405</span>

What's the answer for 4d - 35= -3
Ket [755]

Answer:

The answer is <u>8</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

4d - 35= -3.

Now, the solution:

4d-35=-3

Adding both sides by 35 we get:

4d=-3+35

4d=32

Dividing both sides by 4 we get:

d=8

Therefore, the answer is 8.

Which of the following represents the zeros of f(x) = x3 − 11x2 + 38x − 40?
Delvig [45]
The answer is <span>5, 4, 2
</span>
Among all choices we have 5, so
x = 5
x - 5 = 0
Let's divide the expression by (x - 5) using the long division:
                          x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40
(x - 5)  * x² =      x³ - 5x²                   Subtract
____________________________
                              -6x² + 38x - 40
   (x - 5) * (-6x) =    -6x² + 30x          Subtract
____________________________
                                           8x - 40
                    (x - 5) * 8 =     8x - 40   Sutract
____________________________
                                              0

Thus: x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = (x - 5)(x² - 6x + 8)

Now, let's simplify x² - 6x + 8.

x² - 6x + 8 = x² - 2x - 4x + 8 =
                  = x² - 2*x - (4*x - 4*2) = 
                  = x(x - 2) - 4(x - 2) =
                  = (x - 4)(x - 2)

Hence:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = (x - 5)(x - 4)(x - 2)
To calculate zero:
x³ - 11x² + 38x - 40 = 0
(x - 5)(x - 4)(x - 2) = 0
x - 5 = 0            or             x - 4 = 0              or      x - 2 = 0
x = 5                 or              x = 4                   or      x = 2
