s of soap for $1.50 each, a bottle of shampoo for $5.75, and a bottle of conditioner for $5.95. How much did Maxine spend? A. Step 1: Add the price of a bar of soap to the price of the bottle of shampoo. Step 2: Multiply that total by 3. Step 3: Add the price of the bottle of conditioner to that total. Step 4: Add the tax to the final total for all the items. B. Step 1: Calculate the total price of the 3 bars of soap. Step 2: Calculate the total price of the shampoo and the conditioner. Step 3: Add the amount from Step 2 to the amount from Step 1. Step 4: Add the tax to the final total for all the items. C. Step 1: Add the price of a bar of soap and the bottle of shampoo. Step 2: Multiply that total by 3. Step 3: Add $5.95 to the total amount for soap and shampoo from Step 2. Step 4: Add the tax to the final total for all the items.

What's something that could go wrong if you use numbers that are not precise?​
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

There are a lot of things that can go wrong, especially when we have an error in a measure that we use a lot of times (each time, that error increases).

For example, you think that each meter of fence costs $5, but the actual price is $5.30, and you need 40 meters, then you think that you may need to pay:

40*$5 = $200

But they will actually charge you:

40*$5.30 = $212.

Now this is a small example, now let's go to medicine, suppose that you want to trait cancer with radiation in a pacient, if you do not use precise measures for the dosage of radiation or the measures of the tumor, you may cause a lot of damage in the patient. (And similar cases if you want to give some medication and the numbers that you use are not precise, you may overdose the patient)

So the use of precise numbers may be critical in a lot of scenarios.

The sum of eight and two, subtracted from x<br> a. x + (8 - 2)<br> b. x - (8 + 2)
Lesechka [4]
Answer B is correct. Sum is the answer to an addition problem, so sum of 8 and 2 would be 8+2.

A sixth grade math student made this conjecture: every prime number can be expressed as the product of two prime numbers. Do you
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

No, I do not agree with the conjecture because 1 is not a prime number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number is one that can be divided by 1 and itself only. Thus it can be expressed in 2 factors only, 1 and the number itself.

Examples are; 2, 3, 5, 13, 19 , 23 etc.

So, 2 = 1 x 2

      3 = 1 x 3

     23 = 1 x 23

Prime numbers must be expressed as the product of 1 and the number.

The conjecture that every prime number can be expressed as the product of two prime numbers is false. Because 1 is not a prime number, since it has no 2 factors.

If f(x) = x + 4 and g(x)=x^2-1, what is m(g o f)(x)?
Andreas93 [3]

Until now, given a function  f(x), you would plug a number or another variable in for x. You could even get fancy and plug in an entire expression for x. For example, given  f(x) = 2x + 3, you could find f(y2 – 1) by plugging y2 – 1 in for x to get f(y2 – 1) = 2(y2 – 1) + 3 = 2y2 – 2 + 3 = 2y2 + 1.

In function composition, you're plugging entire functions in for the x. In other words, you're always getting "fancy". But let's start simple. Instead of dealing with functions as formulas, let's deal with functions as sets of (x, y) points:

Let f = {(–2, 3), (–1, 1), (0, 0), (1, –1), (2, –3)} and  

let g = {(–3, 1), (–1, –2), (0, 2), (2, 2), (3, 1)}.  

 

Find (i) f (1), (ii) g(–1), and (iii) (g o f )(1).

(i) This type of  exercise is meant to emphasize that the (x, y) points are really (x, f (x)) points. To find  f (1), I need to find the (x, y) point in the set of (x, f (x)) points that has a first coordinate of x = 1. Then f (1) is the y-value of that point. In this case, the point with x = 1 is (1, –1), so:
