M∠P = 12°
m∠Q = 90° [A tangent line to a circle is perpendicular to the radius drawn to the tangent point]
m∠O = 90 - 12 = 78°
Answer: x=78°
The order of arithmetic operations is given by the acronym PEMDAS, which means
Parentheses,
Exponents,
Multiplication,
Division,
Addition,
Subtraction.
These two examples illustrate how the use of parentheses can change the order.
Example 1:
5+7/3x4-2/5 has an answer of 13.933.
Use PEMDAS to obtain
5+(7/3)x4-(2/5)
= 5+(2.3333x4)-0.4
= 5+9.3333-0.4
= 14.3333-0.4
= 13.933
If we apply the parentheses: (5+7)/3x4-2/5
The result is
(12/3)x4-(2/5)
= (4x4)-0.4
= 16-0.4
= 15.06
which is a different answer.
Example 2:
8/3²x5+4 has the answer 8.444
Use PEMDAS to obtain
8/(3²)x5+4
= (8/9)x5+4
= (0.8889x5)+4
= 4.4444+4
= 8.4444
If we apply the parentheses (8/3)²x5+4:
The result is
2.6667²x5+4
= 7.1113x5+4
= 35.5565+4
= 39.5565
which is a different answer.
Answer:
- (2x + 5)/(x - 9)
- 3. quantity 2 x plus 5 over x minus 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Quantity 2 x squared plus 13 x plus 20 all over x squared minus 5 x minus 36
- (2x² + 13x + 20)/(x² -5x - 36) =
- (2x²+ 5x + 8x + 20)/(x² - 9x + 4x -36)=
- (2x + 5)(x + 4)/(x - 9)(x + 4) =
- (2x + 5)/(x - 9)
Correct option is option 3
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
In a 30-60-90 right triangle, the hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg.
The hypotenuse is AB and is 18.
The short leg is BC and is 9.
The only choice with BC = 9 is b.
Answer: b
