Renee is simplifying the expression (7) (StartFraction 13 over 29 EndFraction) (StartFraction 1 over 7 EndFraction). She recogni

dsp73

Answer:

The correct option is commutative property.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression that Renee is simplifying is:

$(7)\cdot(\frac{13}{29})\cdot(\frac{1}{7})$

It is provided that, Renee recognizes that 7 and $\frac{1}{7}$ are reciprocals, so she would like to find their product before she multiplies by $\frac{13}{29}$ .

The associative property of multiplication states that:

$a\times b\times c=(a\times b)\times c=a\times (b\times c)$

The commutative property of multiplication states that:

$a\times b\times c=a\times c\times b=c\times a\times b$

The distributive property of multiplication states that:

$a\cdot (b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c$

The identity property of multiplication states that:

$a\times 1=a\\b\times 1=b$

So, Renee should use the commutative property of multiplication to find the product of 7 and $\frac{1}{7}$ ,

$(7)\cdot(\frac{13}{29})\cdot(\frac{1}{7})=(7\times\frac{1}{7})\times\frac{13}{29}=\frac{13}{29}$

Thus, the correct option is commutative property.

Which equation has x = –6 as the solution?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The equation 'log Subscript 3 Baseline (negative 2 x minus 3) = 2' i.e. $\log _3\left(-2x-3\right)=2$ has x = –6 as the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Checking the equation</u>

log Subscript 3 Baseline (negative 2 x minus 3) = 2

Writing in algebraic expression

$\log _3\left(-2x-3\right)=2$

Use the logarithmic definition

$\mathrm{If}\:\log _a\left(b\right)=c\:\mathrm{then}\:b=a^c$

$\log _3\left(-2x-3\right)=2\quad \Rightarrow \quad \:-2x-3=3^2$

$-2x-3=3^2$

$-2x-3=9$

$-2x=12$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2$

$\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{12}{-2}$

$x=-6$

Therefore, the equation 'log Subscript 3 Baseline (negative 2 x minus 3) = 2' i.e. $\log _3\left(-2x-3\right)=2$ has x = –6 as the solution.

Books spontaneously catch on fire in temperatures at or above 451, degree Fahrenheit. Write an inequality that is true only for

Brilliant_brown [7]

For this case, the first thing you should do is define a variable.
We have then:
t: temperature (degree Fahrenheit).
We write then the inequation that adapts to the problem:
t> = 451
Answer:
an inequality that is true only for temperatures at which books spontaneously catch on fire is:
t> = 451
