I actually posted this a while ago and it got answerd by a smart person so here's what I understood
the error is that it assumes that √(x²)=x
because if x is negative, it becomes positive
that's how the 2nd line is wrong
the 2nd line is the first wrong step
it goes from 4-9/2+9/2
so it goes from 4-4.5+4.5
notice the part under the parenthsees
√((4-4.5)²)
if we evaluate 4-4.5, we get -0.5
but by squaring it we get 0.5
-0.5+4.5=4, yes
but when we square it we get
0.5+4.5=5, that is how it works
The <em><u>correct answer </u></em>is:
B. 14
Explanation:
Let x be the number of days. On day 1, we begin with 64 orders. We gain 18 orders per day; this is 18x, and gives us
64+18x.
We also make 28 crates per day, which decreases the number of crates we need by 28 per day; this is -28x, and gives us
64+18x-28x
Combining like terms, we get
64-10x
For day 5, we replace x with 5:
64-10(5) = 64-50 = 14
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=3, y=10
Step-by-step explanation:
in triangle KLN all the angles are equal making it an equilateral trianlge. GIven one side being 6, we know all the sides are 6 including the side with the expression y-4.
this means
y-4=6
y=10
Using the converse of the base angles theorem(meaning we know the base angles are congruent so the two sides are conguent), we know that
6=x+3
x=3
Answer:(12,-5)
Step-by-step explanation: if you have (x-12)^2+(y+5)^2=100 you switch the signs of 12 and 5 opposite
