A. {0,1,2,3,4}<br> B. {1,2,3,4}<br> C. {-1,0,1,2,3}<br> D. {-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4}

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Option D:

The set is {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}.

Solution:

Given set:

$\{x \in Z:-2 \leq x \leq 4\}$

Z means integer values.

Integer means set of positive and negative values including zero.

$-2 \leq x \leq 4$

This means x lies between -2 and 4.

If x strictly less than -2 and greater than 4 means you don't have to include -2 and 4.
But here x less than or equal to -2 and greater than or equal to 4, so you have to include -2 and 4.

The integers are -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.

So, x belongs to the set {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

Hence the given set is defined by the set {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}.

Option D is the correct answer.

5z^3 - 2z^4 - 9z^2 + z

likoan [24]

Answer:

-z( 2z^3-5z^2+9z-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply exponent rule: a^b+c=a^b*a^c

z^2=zz

z^3=z^2*z

z^4=z^3*z

Factor out common term z:

-z(2z^3-5z^2+9z-1)

How many pieces 3 and three fifths in. long can be cut from 28 metal rods each 15 in. long? Disregard waste.

Murrr4er [49]

Answer: 112 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rewrite $3^{\frac{3}{5}}$ as a decimal. Divide the numerator and the denominator of the fractional part and add it to the integer part:

$3+0.6=3.6in$

2. You know that each metal rod is 15 inches long. Then, you must divide the lenght of each one by 3.6:

$pieces=\frac{15in}{3.6in}4.16$

3. The waste is 0.16, therefore, you obtain 4 pieces from a metal rod. The total pieces obtained from 28 metal rods are:

$total=4pieces*28=112pieces$

What is the power of x? <br> A) 2 <br> B) 3 <br> C) 6 <br> D) 7

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They are basically wanting the value of x.

These are 2 secant lines drawn. Secant Line is a line that intersects the circle at 2 points.

To solve this, we have to use secant-secant theorem.

Secant-Secant Power Theorem tells us that if 2 secant lines are drawn from external point (here, E) to a circle, then, product of measure of one secant's external part and total secant is equal to other secants external part and whole secant.

In algebra, that is:

$(x+1)(x+1+11)=(x+4)(x+4+1)$

Let's multiply and find the value of x:

$(x+1)(x+1+11)=(x+4)(x+4+1)\\(x+1)(x+12)=(x+4)(x+5)\\x^2 + 13x + 12=x^2+9x+20\\13x+12=9x+20\\13x - 9x = 20 - 12\\4x = 8\\x = 2$

Hence, the correct answer choice is A

The question has to do with scientific notation

<h3>What is scientific notation?</h3>

Scientific notation is the expression of a number in the form a × 10ⁿ where 1 ≤ a ≤ 10 and n is an integer.

<h3>How to simplify the expression?</h3>

Now to simplify the expression (9 × 10⁻¹³) - (6.3 × 10⁻¹⁵) both number have to have the same exponent to the power of 10.

So, re-writing, we have

(9 × 10⁻¹³) - (6.3 × 10⁻¹⁵) = (9 × 10⁻¹³) - (6.3 × 10⁻¹³ × 10⁻²)

= (9 × 10⁻¹³) - (6.3 × 10⁻² × 10⁻¹³ )

= (9 × 10⁻¹³) - (0.063 × 10⁻¹³ )

= (9 - 0.063) × 10⁻¹³ )

= 8.937 × 10⁻¹³

So, simplifying the expression (9 × 10⁻¹³) - (6.3 × 10⁻¹⁵) = 8.937 × 10⁻¹³
