The work of a student to solve the equation 2(3x − 4) = 8 + 2x + 4 is shown below: Step 1: 2(3x − 4) = 8 + 2x + 4 Step 2: 5x − 6

= 12 + 2x Step 3: 5x − 2x = 12 + 6 Step 4: 3x = 18 Step 5: x = 6 In which step did the student first make an error and what is the correct step? (5 points) Step 2; 6x − 6 = 2(6 + x + 2) Step 2; 6x − 8 = 12 + 2x Step 3; 5x − 2x = 12 − 6 Step 3; 5x + 2x = 12 + 6

Answer:

B: Step 2; 6x − 8 = 12 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

the student added  2 x 4 during the distributive property but you must multiply so you get 8 rather than 6.

For the right triangles below, find the exact values of the side lengths b and d.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question lacks the required diagram. Find the diagram attached below;

According to the first triangle, taking 30° as the reference angle, the opposite side of the triangle will be 5 and the adjacent will be the unknown side "b"

According to SOH, CAH, TOA;

tanθ = opposite/adjacent (using TOA)

Given;

θ = 30°, opposite = 5 and adjacent = b

tan30° = 5/b

b = 5/tan30°

b = 5/(1/√3)

b = 5*√3/1

b = 5√3

According to the 45° triangle, the opposite side of the triangle will be d and the hypotenuse will be 7

Using SOH;

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse

Given;

θ = 45°, opposite = d and adjacent = 7

sin45° = d/7

d = 7sin45°

d = 7(1/√2)

d = 7/√2

Rationalize 7/√2

= 7/√2*√2/√2

=7√2/2

Hence the value of d is 7√2/2

There are 13 teams of cheerleaders at a competition. The order of performance is determined at random. What is the probability t
PIT_PIT [208]

probability of you performing first is 1/13

after your team performs there are 12 teams left, so chance of the other team performing next is 1/12


chance of both happening = 1/13 * 1/12 = 1/156

Find the indicated values, where g(t)=t^2-t and f(x)=1+x g(f(2)+3)
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

g(f(2)+3)=30

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the two functions:

g(t)=t^2-t\text{ and } f(x)=1+x

And we wish to find:

g(f(2)+3)

First, let’s find f(2) first. So, we will substitute 2 for x for f(x):

f(2)=1+(2)=3

Hence, we can now substitute 3 for f(2):

g(f(2)+3)=g(3+3)=g(6)

Now, we can find g(6). Substitute 6 for t for g(t):

g(6)=(6)^2-(6)=36-6=30

Therefore:

g(f(2)+3)=30
