Answer:

Translation: 2x/7 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

When we listen to the word "quotient", it means the solution to a division problem.
An unknown number that has been multiplied by 2 is in the numerator because it came before the 7 in the statement.
The number "7" is in the denominator because it came after the 2x in the statement.
The word "is" represents an equal sign.
The solution to the division problem (quotient) is 20.

If we put these clues together, we get 2x/7 = 20 as our translated equation.

Hence, our algebraic statement is 2x/7 = 20. The key is to listen to the statement.

Which polynomial expression represents a sum of cubes? (6 – s)(s2 + 6s + 36) (6 + s)(s2 – 6s – 36) (6 + s)(s2 – 6s + 36) (6 + s)

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Option 3 is correct that is $(6+s)(s^2-6s+36)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have general formula for sum of cube which is

$a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2+b^2-ab)$

Here, we have a=s and b=6

on substituting the values in the formula we will get

$6^3+s^3=(6+s)(s^2+6^2-6s)$

After simplification we will get

$6^3+s^3=(6+s)(s^2+36-6s)$

After rearranging the terms we will get

$6^3+s^3=(6+s)(s^2-6s+36)$ which exactly matches option 3 in the given options.

Therefore, option 3 is correct that is $(6+s)(s^2-6s+36)$

What ratio would be used to convert 0.5 miles to yard

NeTakaya

Convert Miles to Yards:

yd =mi * 1760.0

Shown work:
mi -> yd
yd =mi * 1760.000
yd =0.5 * 1760.000
yd =880.0000

Result: 8.8e+2 OR simply just: 0.5mi= 880yd

Answer:

0,∞

Thus, the range of the square root function is [0,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

When its domain is greater than or equal to zero, its inverse is the squaring function. When its domain is all real numbers, its range includes complex numbers such as i, -1.
