Answer:
The answer to your question is the first option
Step-by-step explanation:
Original expression
-3/8 (-4 + 1/2)
First option -3/8 (-4) + (3/8)(1/2) This option is not equivalent because
they forgot the negative sign of the
second term.
Second option (-3/8)(-4) + (-3/8)(1/2) This option is equivalent to the
original. Distributive property
Third option (-3/2)(-3 1/2) This option is equivalent to the original
Fourth option (-3/8)(-3) + (-3/8)(-1/2) This option is equivalent to the original
Answer: FIRST OPTION

By definition, given a Quadratic equation in the form:

Where "a", "b" and "c" are numerical coefficients and "x" is the unknown variable, you caN use the Quadratic Formula to solve it.
The Quadratic Formula is the following:

In this case, the exercise gives you this Quadratic equation:

You can identify that the numerical coefficients are:

Therefore, you can substitute values into the Quadratic formula shown above:

You can identify that the equation that shows the Quadratic formula used correctly to solve the Quadratic equation given in the exercise for "x", is the one shown in the First option.
Answer:
a) 7/4 b) 15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Scale Factor = Image / Object
Take the side of Triangle ABC that's BC Why? Because it corresponds with the Image Triangle ADE's DE
= 21/12 = 7/4
b) 7/4 = 10+ x / 10
Cross Multiply
= 4 ( 10 + x ) = 70
= 40 + 4x = 70
= 4x = 70-40
= 4x = 30
= 4x/4 = 30/4
x = 15/2
Just try to follow my description. When two persons are in the cabin, there is only 1 handshake. When a third person comes, he will have to handshake the two people who came before him. So, there will be 2 handshakes. When a fourth person comes, he would make 3 handshakes with the 3 people who came before him. When the fifth person comes, he would make 4 handshakes with the 4 people who came before him. So, you see there is a pattern. The number of handshakes is 1 less than the total number of people inside the cabin. So, if there are 14 people in the cabin, the last person to come in would have to make 13 handshakes with the 13 people who came in first. Obtaining the sum of all the handshakes starting from the 2 handshakes initially to the 13 handshakes, the sum would be
Total handshakes = 2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13
Total handshakes = 90
Therefore, there will be a total of 90 handshakes made within the cabin of 14 people.
