Which of the following statements represents the distributive property?

Help pls its too hard

damaskus [11]

Answer:

3/4 cups of coconut oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 * 3 = 3/3 = 1

1/4 * 3 = 3/4

So it would be

3/4

The demand for coffee is given by the following equation, where QD stands for the quantity demanded and P stands for price.

mart [117]

Using linear function concepts, it is found that the slopes and intercepts of the functions are given as follows:

a) -4.

b) P = 25.

c) 2.

d) P = 5.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

The demand is given by:

D = 100 - 4P.

Hence the slope is of -4. The demand is equals to zero when:

100 - 4P = 0 -> P = 25.

The supply is given by:

QS = -10 + 2P.

Hence the slope is of 2. The supply is equals to zero when:

-10 + 2P = 0 -> P = 5.

A rancher wants to fence in an area of 1000000 square feet in a rectangular field and then divide it in half with a fence down t

frosja888 [35]

The shortest length of the fence used by the rancher in a rectangular field of 1000000 square feet is 4899 ft.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

The area of a rectangle is a region enclosed in four corners where two opposite sides are equal. The area of the rectangle is mathematically expressed as:

Area of a rectangle = length(x) × breath(y)

1000000 sq.ft = (x) × (y) ---- (1)

However, to determine the fencing, we have:

Length of fencing = 2x + 2y

since the rectangle has four sides and opposite sides are equal

Suppose we use the x-direction to estimate the region where the fencing is located, we have:

Length of fencing = 2x + 2y + x

Length of fencing = 3x + 2y ---- (2)

From equation (1), make (y) the subject of the formula and replace the value of y with equation (2)

The Length of fencing is:

$\mathbf{L = 3x - 2( \dfrac{1000000}{x})}$

$\mathbf{\dfrac{dL}{dx} = 3 - \dfrac{2000000}{x^2} = 0}$

$\mathbf{ x^2= \dfrac{2000000}{3} }$

$\mathbf{ x= \dfrac{1000\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}} }$

$\mathbf{x = \dfrac{1000 \sqrt{6}}{3}}$

Now, if we replace the value with equation (1), then y will be:

$\mathbf{y = \dfrac{1000000}{\dfrac{1000 \sqrt{6}}{3}} }\\ \\ \\ \\ \mathbf{y = \dfrac{3000 }{\sqrt{6}}}$

$\mathbf{x =500\sqrt{6}}$

Now, the shortest length of the fencing can be computed by using the equation (2):

L = 3x + 2y

$\mathbf{L = 3( \dfrac{1000 \sqrt{6}}{3}) + 2(500 \sqrt{6})}$

$\mathbf{L =1000 \sqrt{6} + 1000 \sqrt{6}}$

$\mathbf{L =2000 \sqrt{6} }$

$\mathbf{L \simeq 4899 \ ft}$

1. y =<br>(x - 1)(x + 3)<br>

Nataliya [291]

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x(x+3)-1(x+3)

y= x^2+3x-x-3

y=x^2+2x-3

that is the answer
