Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify something that looks like
you would multiply the top and bottom by the conjugate of the bottom. So you multiply the top and bottom for this problem I just made by:
.
If you had
, then you would multiply top and bottom the conjugate of
which is
.
The conjugate of a+b is a-b.
These have a term for it because when you multiply them something special happens. The middle terms cancel so you only have to really multiply the first terms and the last terms.
Let's see:
(a+b)(a-b)
I'm going to use foil:
First: a(a)=a^2
Outer: a(-b)=-ab
Inner: b(a)=ab
Last: b(-b)=-b^2
--------------------------Adding.
a^2-b^2
See -ab+ab canceled so all you had to do was the "first" and "last" of foil.
This would get rid of square roots if a and b had them because they are being squared.
Anyways the conjugate of
is
.
This is the thing we are multiplying and top and bottom.
Answer:
15/22
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that speed * time = distance
Before we start we need to make sure the units for all three numbers are right
The time is 1/3 of a hour, 1/3*60 = 20 minutes
x * 20 = 22.5
x *2 * 10 = 22.5
2x = 2.25
x = 1.125

Hi there!
The general formula of A line in slope-intercept form is the following:

In this formula m represents the slope of the line. Therefore, we can conclude that m = 2/5.

We also know that the line passes through the point (-3, -1) and we can therefore substitute this coordinate into the formula of the line.
x = -3 and y = -1

Multiply first.

And finally add 1 1/5 to both sides of the equation.

We can now switch sides.

Now we've found our value of n, which we can substitute into the formula of our line. Hence, in slope-intercept form, we find the following:
