Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property is when you break a problem down. For example 6 +4.

You could break it down into 3x2+4. Or (3x2)+2x2. Or you could even break it down into 3+3+2+2. Those are all the same as 6+4.

Answer:

<h2>22 hours and 10 hours </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

let the jobs be x and y, so that

x+y=32--------1

9x+7y=248----2

x=32-y

substitute x=32-y for x in equation 2 we have

9(32-y)+7y=248

open bracket we have

288-9y+7y=248

-2y=248-288

-2y=-40

2y=40

divide both sides by 2 we have

y=40/2

y= 10 hours

subtitute y=10 for y in equation 1 to find x

x+10=32--------1

x=32-10

x=22

x=22 hours

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-6,-1) and (-4,2). Put your answer in fully simplified point-slop

Archy [21]

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{(-1)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{-4}-\underset{x_1}{(-6)}}} \implies \cfrac{2 +1}{-4 +6} \implies \cfrac{ 3 }{ 2 }$

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{3}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-6)}) \implies {\large \begin{array}{llll} y +1= \cfrac{3}{2} (x +6) \end{array}}$

Can someone help me with this question

Mashcka [7]

The correct answer here would be D. -1(3x+1)(x+5). You can find this answer by redistributing the problem.

-1(3x+1)(x+5)
-1(3x²+15x+1x+5)
-1(3x²+16x+5)
-3x²-16x-5

Using the math above, we can see that when we redistribute we get the original equation. That makes Choice D correct.

D(x)=(x^2-12x+20)/(3x)

krok68 [10]

Answers:

Vertical asymptote: x = 0

Horizontal asymptote: None

Slant asymptote: (1/3)x - 4

Explanation:

d(x) = $\frac{x^{2}-12x+20}{3x}$

= $\frac{(x-2)(x - 10)}{3x}$

Discontinuities: (terms that cancel out from numerator and denominator):

Nothing cancels so there are NO discontinuities.

Vertical asymptote (denominator cannot equal zero):

3x ≠ 0

÷3 ÷3

x ≠ 0

So asymptote is to be drawn at x = 0

Horizontal asymptote (evaluate degree of numerator and denominator):

degree of numerator (2) > degree of denominator (1)

so there is NO horizontal asymptote but slant (oblique) must be calculated.

Slant (Oblique) Asymptote (divide numerator by denominator):

(1/3)x - 4
3x) x² - 12x + 20
x²
-12x
-12x
20 (stop! because there is no "x")

So, slant asymptote is to be drawn at (1/3)x - 4

Estimate the product by roundup 5 ×5503

Mumz [18]

5 can stay as is, but 5503 can be rounded to 5500 so 5500x5=27500
