Answer:

<em>one of the options are correct</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 2 + 32*5-3, we are to locate the point where parenthesis will be placed to get 44;

There is no point where we are we are going to put parenthesis to get 44

For Option A :

2+32×(5−3)

= 2+ 32 * 2

According to PEMDAS, multiplication is next in precedence

= 2(32*2)

= 2(64)

= 128

For Option B:

2+(32*5)-3

= 2+160-3

= 162-3

= 159

For Option C:

(2+32) * 5 - 3

= 34 * 5 -3

= 170-3

= 167

For Option D:

(2+3)2*5 - 3

5(2)*5 - 3

10*5 -3

= 50 - 3

= 47

<em>From the expansion, none gave us 44, hence none of the options are correct</em>

Find an equation of the line in the form whose​ x-intercept is 15 and​ y-intercept is 3​, where​ a, b, and c are integers with n
madreJ [45]

x-intercept = (15, 0)                  y-intercept = (0, 3)

slope (m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (0 - 3)/(15 - 0) = -3/15 = -1/5

Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)   ; where (x₁, y₁) is one of the given points

y - 0 = (-1/5)(x - 15)

    -5y = x - 15

             x + 5y = 15

Answer: x + 5y = 15

5 students, including Alice, Bob, and Cindy, line up in a row. In how many ways can they line up so that Alice is somewhere betw
Inga [223]

Answer:

20 possible arrangements

Step-by-step explanation:

A: Alice  

B: Bob

C: Cindy

X: other student

All the possible arrangements are:

When Bob is in the first place

B A C X X

B A X C X

B A X X C

B X A C X

B X A X C

B X X A C

6 possible arrangements

When Bob is in the second place (notice that neither Alice nor Cindy can be before Bob)

X B A C X

X B A X C

X B X A C

3 possible arrangements

When Bob is in the third place

X X B A C

Only 1 possible arrangement.

Total arrangements when Bob is before Cindy: 10

If Cindy is before Bob the same situations are repeated, given another 10 arrangements. So, the total line up in which Alice is somewhere between Bob and Cindy are 20.

Write the equation for a circle with it's center at (9,7) and with a solution point at (-6,2)
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a circle is

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

We have an h, k, x, and y; we need to find r-squared.  Filling in:

(-6-9)^2+(2-7)^2=r^2  which simplifies to

-15^2+-5^2=r^2  which simplifies to

225+25=r^2  which means that

r^2=250

Our equation, then, is

(x-9)^2+(y-7)^2=250
