The correct answer is:  [D]:  " 4x² − 12x − 4 " .
___________________________________________________
Explanation: 
___________________________________________________
Given:
___________________________________________________
    "  (16x²  − 16)  +  ( -12x² − 12x + 12) " ;    Simplify.
___________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property of multiplication:
___________________________________________________
  a(b + c)  =  ab +  ac ; 

  a(b − c)  =  ab − ac .
___________________________________________________
So we can rewrite the expression as:

  "  (16x²  − 16)  +  1( -12x² − 12x + 12) "  ; 

{The "1" is implied; since "1", multiplied by any value, results in the exact same value.}.

Let us examine the following part of the expression:
_________________________________________________
    "  + 1 ( -12x² − 12x + 12 ) " ;

Using the distributive property of multiplication:
 
"  + 1 ( -12x² − 12x + 12 )  =  (1 * -12x²) − (1 * 12x) + (1 * 12) ; 

                                        =   "  − 12x² − 12x + 12 " ; 
_________________________________________________
Now, bring down the other part of the expression; & rewrite:
_________________________________________________
→   " (16x²  − 16)  − 12x² − 12x + 12 " ; 

   →  " 16x²  − 16 − 12x² − 12x + 12 "  ;

Now, combine the "like terms" :

     + 16x²  −  12x²  = 4x²  ; 

     − 16 + 12 =  -4 ; 

and we have " − 12x" ;

So we can rewrite the expression as:
_______________________________________________________

 →   " 4x² − 12x − 4 " ; 

        →  which is:  "Answer choice:  [D]:  " 4x² − 12x − 4 <span>" .

Assume that adults have iq scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 100100 and a standard deviation of 15. find the t
anastassius [24]
The bell curve attached below shows the normal distribution of the data.

We are looking the value of X such as the area to its left gives the probability of 0.75

We first need the z-score which we can obtain by reading from the z-table (as shown in the second picture below)

The z-score is = 0.7734

Then we use the following formula to work out X
z-score = (X - Mean) ÷ Standard Deviation
0.7734 = (X - 100) ÷ 15
0.7734×15 = X - 100
11.601 = X - 100
X = 11.601 + 100
X = 111.601 ≈ 112 

Hence the third quartile is 112

Add using the number line. 7+(−10) Drag and drop the word SUM to the correct value on the number line.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Steps of adding 7+(-10) using number line are as following:


1) Draw a number line by ranging from -10 to +10.

2) Point out 7 on the number line.

3) Because -10 is added to 7 on the number line,  please move 10 numbers left to 7 on the number line. We always go left in addition of a negative number on the number line.

4) The number we reach -3 on left side would be our final sum.

5) From the number we can clearly see that moving 10 number on left to 7, we get -3.

Note: We are moving left because of negative sign in front of 10.

A classroom board is 54 inches wide and 36 inches tall. Eva
Lady bird [3.3K]
<h3>Answer:  180 inches</h3>

Work Shown:

L = 54 = length

W = 36 = width

P = 2(L+W) ... perimeter of the rectangle

P = 2(54+36)

P = 2(90)

P = 180

She needs 180 inches of ribbon.

To convert to feet, divide by 12. So 180 inches = 180/12 = 15 feet.
