Complete Question:
Jamie used the distributive property to find the product of s(t) and h(t). His work was marked incorrect. Identify Jamie's mistake. What advice would you give Jamie to avoid this mistake in the future?
s(t)•h(t)= (3x-4)(2x-8)
= 6x² - 24x -8x - 32
= 6x² - 32x - 32
Answer:
Jamie made a mistake in his second line (6x² - 24x -8x - 32), by wrongly multiplying the operation signs. The last term should be +32, not -32.
Advice: Jamie should take note of the rule that applies when multiplying signs.
Step-by-step Explanation::
To find out where exactly Jamie made mistake, let's find the product of the given functions, step by step:
s(t)•h(t)= (3x-4)(2x-8)
Using distributive property, do the following:
(this is where Jamie made mistake. -4 * -8 = +32. NOT -32.)
Add like terms
Jamie made a mistake in multiplying negative × negative. The last term in "6x² - 24x -8x - 32", should be +32. Negative × negative = +.
Therefore, it is advisable for Jamie to always take note of the rule that applies when multiplying signs.
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5x = 16
divide 0.5 from both sides to get variable by itself since it is the inverse operation of 0.5x
x=32
<h2>Alex accidentally forgot to stock up on toilet paper before the stay-at-home order. Now he has to buy toilet paper on the black market. Though the price of toilet paper on the black market has mostly stabilized, it still varies from day to day. The daily price of a generic brand 12-pack, X, and the daily price of a generic brand 6-pack, Y, (in rubles) jointly follow a bivariate normal distribution with:
</h2><h2>μx = 2,470, σx = 30, μy = 1,250, σ = 25, p = 0.60.
</h2><h2>(a) What is the probability that 2 (two) 6-packs cost more than 1 (one) 12-pack? (b) To ensure that he will not be without toilet paper ever again, Alex buys 7 (seven) 12-packs and 18 (eighteen) 6-packs. What is the probability that he paid more than 40,000 rubles?
</h2><h2>(c) Suppose that today's price of a 12-pack is 2,460 rubles. What is the probability that a 6-pack costs less than 1,234 rubles today? [1 US dollar is approximately 75 rubles ]</h2>
A piece-wise function combines more than one functions of different input values.
<em>The value of f(-1) is -3</em>
From the graph, we have the following observations
- <em>When x = -1, y = -3</em>
- <em>When x = -1, y = -4</em>
Notice that there is a closed circle at the point where x = -1 and y = -3.
This means that y = -3 is inclusive of the values of y on that particular function
However, there is an open circle at the point where x = -1 and y = -3.
This means that y = -4 is exclusive of the values of y on that particular function
The correct corresponding value of y is when y is inclusive.
Hence, the value of f(-1) is -3

To answer this question I believe you just need to subtract the two values
-12-(-27) = -12 + 27 = 15
The temperature dropped 15 degrees
hope this helped!
