Jill says he did it wrong. He should have multiplied the bottom first (3 x 5) and then multiplied by the height. Explain to Jill

why Jack's method works and is equivalent to her method.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack's method is equivalent because of the "law of commutative property", which means that multiplication problems have the same result no matter the order.

2x5 is the same as 5x2

How does the word equidistant relate to the term perpendicular bisector?
disa [49]
A perpendicular bisector cuts a line segment directly in half. a property of perpendicular bisectors is that any point on the line of the bisector will be equidistant (the same distance from) both end points.

 Ex, If point X was 5 ft away from one endpoint, it would be 5 feet away from the other as well.

Which expressions are equivalent to 5(-2k-3)+2k
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

-8k - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

5(-2k-3)+2k

At first, we will break the parenthesis. To break that, we will multiply the value inside the parenthesis by the adjacent number, that is 5. Again, we have to consider the Algebraic operation (Golden rule) -

[(-) x (-) = (+); (+) x (-) = (-)]

Therefore, since there is a minus sign in each of the value inside the parenthesis, the result will be minus as 5 is a positive integer.

or, -5*(2k) - (5*3) + 2k

or, -10k - 15 + 2k

or, -8k - 15 (after the deduction)

The answer is = -8k - 15

A gardener wants to create a rectangular vegetable garden in a backyard. She wants it to have a total area of 120 square feet, a
erastova [34]
Comment
This is an area problem. The key words are 120 square feet and 12 feet longer.
And of course width is a key word when you are reading this.

Formula
Area = L * W

Givens
W = W
L = W + 12

Substitute and Solve
Area = L* W
120 = W*(W + 12)
W^2 + 12W = 120 square feet
w^2 + 12w - 120 = 0

This does not factor easily. I would have thought that a graph might help but not if the dimension has to be to the nearest 1/100 of a foot. The only thing we can do is use the quadratic formula.

a = 1
b = 12
c = - 120

w = [ -b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) ]/(2a)
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(12^2 - 4*(1)(-120)] / 2*1
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(144 - (-480)]/2
w = [-12 +/- sqrt(624)] / 2
w = [- 12 +/- 24.979992] / 2 The minus root has no meaning whatever.
w = (12.979992) / 2
w = 6.489995 I'll round all this when I get done

L = w + 12
L = 6.489995 + 12
L = 18.489995

check
Area = L * W
Area = 6.489995*18.489995
Area = 119.999935 The difference is a rounding error

Answer
L = 18.489995 = 18.49 feet
W = 6.489995 = 6.49 feet

Note: in the check if you round first to the answer, LW = 120.0001 when you find the area for the check. Kind of strange how that nearest 1/100th makes a difference.
