Answer:

2x squared - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For this kind of equation, we use the distributive property

So in the image below I used a box method (that's how I learned it in school)

So since -4x and 4x cancel each other out, or amount to 0, we don't put anything for those. So the equation left is 2x squared - 8

it gives us the time=4, use an exponent to represent the rate(since that's the information we don't have equals 200km

x times 4 = 200km

4x = 200km

divide by 4 to leave the exponent by itself

x = 50km

2+3i divided by 3-3i ( a+bi form)

Oduvanchick [21]

$(2+3i):(3-3i)=\frac{2+3i}{3-3i}\cdot\frac{3+3i}{3+3i}=\frac{(2+3i)(3+3i)}{(3-3i)(3+3i)}=\frac{6+6i+9i-9}{3^2-(3i)^2}=\frac{-3+15i}{9+9}\\\\=\frac{-3+15i}{18}=-\frac{3}{18}+\frac{15i}{18}=-\frac{1}{6}+\frac{5}{6}i$

The running back for the Bulldogs football team carried the ball 5 times for a total loss of 11 1/4 yards. Find the average chan

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle 2\ \frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Fractions

They can be expressed as proper fractions, improper fractions or mixed numbers. Proper fractions are such that the numerator is less than the denominator, like 2/5, 7/11, -9/10. Improper fractions are those whose numerators are greater than the denominator, such as 5/3, 10/9, -21/8.

Mixed numbers are expressions made of whole numbers and a proper fraction, like 4 3/5, 1 1/2, -5 4/9. Mixed numbers can be transformed to improper fractions and vice-versa.

The question requires us to find the average change in field position on each run of the running back for the Bulldogs football team which carried the ball 5 times for a total loss of 11 1/4 yards.

The number 11 1/4 is mixed, to express it as an improper fraction, we add the numbers like

$\displaystyle 11+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{45}{4}$
