Which expression uses the associative property to make it easier to evaluate? (50points)

Naily [24]

The correct answer is option 4: $(8.\frac{1}{4}).\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

$8.(\frac{1}{4}.\frac{3}{5})$

The associative property states that for any three terms that are being multiplied, different order of multiplication (i.e. which two terms are multiplied first) will give the same answer.

Let a,b and c be the three terms

then

$a.(b.c) = (a.b).c$

So applying the associative property on given expression

$8.(\frac{1}{4}.\frac{3}{5}) = (8.\frac{1}{4}).\frac{3}{5}$

Hence,

The correct answer is option 4: $(8.\frac{1}{4}).\frac{3}{5}$

Write 7.75 x 10^-3 in standard notation

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Move the decimal so there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the 10. If the decimal is being moved to the right, the exponent will be negative. If the decimal is being moved to the left, the exponent will be positive.

7.75 × 10^−3

Use the remainder theorem to determine the remainder when 3t2 + 5t − 7 is divided by t − 5. A. 93 B. 43 C. 107 D. 57

Usimov [2.4K]

Using remainder theorem, we get:

$P(t) = 3t^{2} + 5t - 7$

Substitute t = 5 into the equation:
$P(5) = 3(5)^{2} + 5^{2} - 7$
$P(5) = 75 + 25 - 7 = 93$

Thus, we get a remainder of 93 or (A)
