Answer:
For Example: Evaluate a2b for a = –2, b = 3, c = –4, and d = 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find my answer, I just plug in the given values, being careful to use parentheses, particularly around the "minus" signs. Especially when I'm just starting out, drawing the parentheses first may be helpful:
a2 b
( )2 ( )
(–2)2 (3)
(4)(3)
12
Note how using parentheses helped me keep track of the "minus" sign on the value of a. This was important, because I might otherwise have squared only the 2, ending up with –4, which would have been wrong.
By the way, it turned out that we didn't need the values for the variables c and d. When you're given a big set of expressions to evaluate, you should expect that there will often be one or another of the variables that won't be included in any particular exercise in the set.
Evaluate a – cd for a = –2, b = 3, c = –4, and d = 4.
In this exercise, they've given me extra information. There is no b in the expression they want me to evaluate, so I can ignore this value in my working:
(–2) – (–4)(4)
–2 – (–16)
–2 + 16
16 – 2
14
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be solved using intersecting chord theorem. This tells us that when 2 chords intersect inside a circle, the 4 segment it creates, each individual segments' products are equal.
Thus, we can say that the product of 5 and x is equal to the product of 10 and 4. Thus:
Hence x = 8 is the correct answer
Answer:
75%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent yield = experimental yield / theoretical yield * 100
= 900 / 1200 * 100 (remember that 1,000 g = 1 kg)
= 75
Answer:
dx/dt = 5√5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
dx/dt = 25 feet per second
According to Pythagoras theorem:
x² + 90² = y²
We know that x = 30 ft
So,
x² + 90² = y²
30² + 90² = y²
y = 30√10
So,
x² + 90² = y²
By taking differentiate:
2x dx/dt = 2y dy/dt
[x/y][dx/dt] = dy/dt
dx/dt = 5√5/2
16... Remainder of 38
41 x 16 = 656 therefore 38 left over
