Answer:

1153.5 miles (first answer choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

'1000 miles east' is the change in x ('the run'), and '575 miles south' is the change in x (the 'rise').  Since these two vectors form a right angle, we can immediately apply the Pythagorean Theorem without worrying about signs:

d = √(1000² + 575²) = 1153.5 miles (first answer choice)

Simplify completely 12 times x to the third power minus 4 times x to the 2nd power plus 8 times x all over negative 2 times x. (
jok3333 [9.3K]
So we want to simplify
\frac{12 {x}^{3}  - 4 {x }^{2} + 8x  }{ - 2x}
We split the numerators,

=  \frac{12 {x}^{?3} }{ - 2x}  -  \frac{4x {}^{2} }{ - 2x}  +  \frac{8x}{ - 2x}
=  - 6 {x}^{2}  + 2x - 4
The correct answer is B.

Answer:

The lateral surface is 120  in^2, which agrees with the third answer option of the list.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the prism has 5 equal lateral faces, which are all rectangles of eight 6". The width of the prisms can be obtained by using the fact that the perimeter of the pentagon is 20", which gives a side length of 20/5 = 4 " which is the same as the with of the lateral rectangles.

Then the lateral area of the prism is:

Lateral area= 5 (6" x 4") = 5 (24) =  120 in^2

When we rewrite an expression so that it has no grouping symbols and all of the like terms have been combined, we ___ it.
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

  "simplify"

Step-by-step explanation:

The notion of <em>simplifying</em> an expression depends on the expression. For the one offered as an example, the simplification steps required are eliminating parentheses and combining like terms.

Other possible simplification steps include combining fractions, reducing fractions, and rationalizing denominators (eliminating surds or complex numbers).

It appears the vocabulary word that is desired in the blank is <u>simplify</u>.

1. y = x + 2<br> y=-3x<br> What’s is the answer?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

x=(-1/2)     y=(3/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x+2      Given

-3x=x+2    Substitute (-3x) for y

-2-3x=x     Subtract 2 from both sides

-2=4x        Add 3x to both sides

(-1/2)=x      Divide both sides by 4.

y=x+2        Given

y=(-1/2)+2   Substitute (-1/2) for x

y=1 1/2

or

y=3/2
