Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

-4(x + 2) = 4(2 - 2x)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Divide -4 on both sides:                    -(x + 2) = 2 - 2x
  2. Distribute negative:                           -x - 2 = 2 - 2x
  3. Add 2x on both sides:                       x - 2 = 2
  4. Add 2 on both sides:                         x = 4

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    -4(4 + 2) = 4(2 - 2(4))
  2. Multiply:                               -4(4 + 2) = 4(2 - 8)
  3. Add/Subtract:                      -4(6) = 4(-6)
  4. Multiply:                               -24 = -24

Here we see that -24 does equal -24.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

The flight was 137.45 miles farther than the direct path.

(make slight changes if directions were given on how to round. This is to the nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Law of Cosines.

c^2=

a^2+b^2-2abcosC

You know two sides and the angle in between. The Law of Cosines will give us the third side.

The third side is the direct path of the airplane. We'll add the two other given sides to find the detour route that they took instead.

Then subtract the smaller number (direct route) from the actual route. See image.

Can anyone solve and explain please?
Leokris [45]
First take the inside diameter and divide by 2 to get the radius (4cm)
Then use \pir^2 with 'r' being your radius to get the area of the base
The area is 12.7 cm
Now multiply the height by the area of the base to get the volume/ capacity!
40cm x 12.7cm (rounded to the nearest tenth) = 502.7 cubic centimeters

What can those engaged in politics from both parties learn about the Constitution from the debate over the Bill of Rights?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The Federalists wanted a strong government and strong executive branch, while the anti-Federalists wanted a weaker central government. The Federalists did not want a bill of rights —they thought the new constitution was sufficient. The anti-federalists demanded a bill of rights.

Federalists argued that the Constitution did not need a bill of rights, because the people and the states kept any powers not given to the federal government. Anti-Federalists held that a bill of rights was necessary to safeguard individual liberty.
