Answer:

Altogether James walked 4\frac{4}{35} miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves mixed fractions. Mixed fractions are first converted into proper fractions and then any operation can be performed on them.

Given

Distance of first walk = 3\frac{2}{5} of a mile

Distance of second walk = 5/7

In order to find how much he walked altogether, we have to find the sum of both fractions.

Total\ distance = 3\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\= \frac{17}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\=\frac{17*7}{5*7} + \frac{5*5}{7*5}\\=\frac{119}{35} + \frac{25}{35}\\=\frac{119+25}{35}\\=\frac{144}{35}\\=4\frac{4}{35}

Hence,

Altogether James walked 4\frac{4}{35} miles.

Part A: Create a third-degree polynomial in standard form. How do you know it is in standard form? (5 points)
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

(See explanation for further details)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let consider the polynomial p(x) = 5\cdot x^{3} +2\cdot x^{2} - 6 \cdot x +17. The polynomial is in standards when has the form p(x) = \Sigma \limit_{i=0}^{n} \,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}, where n is the order of the polynomial. The example has the following information:

n = 3, a_{0} = 17, a_{1} = -6, a_{2} = 2, a_{3} = 5.

b) The closure property means that polynomials must be closed with respect to addition and multiplication, which is demonstrated hereafter:

Closure with respect to addition:

Let consider polynomials p_{1} and p_{2} such that:

p_{1} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{m} \,a_{i}\cdot x^{i} and p_{2} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{n}\,b_{i}\cdot x^{i}, where m \geq n

p_{1}+p_{2} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{n}\,(a_{i}+b_{i})\cdot x^{i} + \Sigma_{i=n+1}^{m}\,a_{i} \cdot x^{i}

Hence, polynomials are closed with respect to addition.

Closure with respect to multiplication:

Let be p_{1} a polynomial such that:

p_{1} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{m} \,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}

And \alpha an scalar. If the polynomial is multiplied by the scalar number, then:

\alpha \cdot p_{1} = \alpha \cdot \Sigma \limits_{i = 0}^{m}\,a_{i}\cdot x^{i}

Lastly, the following expression is constructed by distributive property:

\alpha \cdot p_{1} = \Sigma \limits_{i=0}^{m}\,(\alpha\cdot a_{i})\cdot x^{i}

Hence, polynomials are closed with respect to multiplication.

The sum of three numbers is 100. The second number is 2 times the third. The third number is 8 less than the first. What are the
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:x+y+z=100(let x ,y,z represent the first second and third numbers respectively)

Therefore,y=2z

z=x-8

y=2x-16

substituting the values of x,y and z into the question,we have

x+(2x-16)+(x-8)=100

Simplifying,we have

4x-24=100

adding 24 to both sides of the equation,

4x=100+24

4x=124

dividing both sides of the equation by the co-efficient of x,we have

4x/4=124/4

4.31=124

therefore,x=31.
