Help on number 8? Helper gets points. Please show work :p.
Monica [59]

Student P:

They messed up in step 1 because they made the 7.75 positive instead of negative, which causes the entire solution to be wrong

Student Q:

They were correct up until step 3. They didn't take all the negatives out of the equation (ex. -(3.5+7.75+29.67)).

Complete set:

From the picture, it looks like the original problem was

-2.5(1.4+3.1)+6.9(-4.3)

Step 1: multiply

1.4(-2.5)+3.1(-2.5)+6.9(-4.3)

Step 2: subtract (add?) them all together

-3.5-7.75-29.67

Step 3 should equal -40.92

a rectangular prism with a volume of 10 cubic units is filled with cubes with side lenghts of 1/2 unit how many 1/2 unit cubes d
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is

V=s^3, we are told the volume is 10u^3 and that it will be filled with cubes having a side of 1/2 so

n(1/2)^3=10, where n will be the number of these small cubes

n(1/8)=10 upon multiplying each side by 8

n=80

So it will take 80 cubes of side length 1/2 to have a volume equal to 10u^3

Please help me on this algebra 1 question, i dont understand it
Y_Kistochka [10]

I believe the answer they're looking for is 3, but it's hard to tell, because there's a negative sign before the box, and a polynomial cannot contain a negative exponent.

Ignoring that sign though, the answer should be 3 because Polynomials typically have a term with each degree up to the maximum of the polynomial.

In this polynomial, there is a term with degree 4, degree 2,  and degree 0, but none for degree 3 or 1. Because of this, the only acceptable answer is 3.
