First, we are going to find the distance traveled by the ship adding the tow distances:
Distance traveled= 24 mi +33 mi=57 mi
Next, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from
to
:
d^2=1665
mi
Finally, we are going to subtract the two distances:
57 mi -40.8 mi= 16.2 mi
We can conclude that <span>if the ship could have traveled in a straight lime from point a to point c, it could have saved
16.2 miles.</span>
Sad to say it is likely D. If you are in the United States, I wouldn't know what deductions are available, but here are some possibilities.
1. Gladys is a single Mom. She gets to deduct her child.
2. Gladys owns her own home and gets to deduct her municipal tax. Michelle is renting and may be able to deduct something but not as much.
3. Gladys gets to deduct medical expenses. Michelle does not.
4. Gladys has a travelling allowance that is deductible. Michelle does not.
5. Gladys goes to church and tithes. Michelle does not.
6. Gladys has a registered savings plan. Michelle does not.
The problem is that the two women might very well be in a different tax bracket when all the deductions are considered. That depends on how the US system works. I don't think you are supposed to choose A. All other things being equal, they should be in the same tax bracket.
I don't see how B would come about. Usually state is dependent on Federal (it is in Canada anyway).
C is definitely wrong unless the savings plan is registered. Any savings plan that produces dividends or interest that is not registered is taxable.
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
<C = <A
25° = 8x - 7
32 = 8x
x = 4
The correct answer is C: 1/(x + 4)(x - 5)
Why? Well, let's first simplify x^2 - 3x - 10 and x^2 + x - 12; the two denominators. Each of these should become an (x +/- number), and to figure out the number, as well as whether it is positive or negative, we can do a simple trick
Look at the factors of the right number (In this case, -10 and -12)
-10 -12
1 * -10 1 * -12
-1 * 10 -1 * 12
-2 * 5 -2 * 6
2 * -5 2 * -6
-3 * 4
4 * -3
Now for part 2
Which of these pairs add up to the middle number? One of the pairs of -10 should make -3, and likewise, one of the pairs of -12 should make 1 (when x has no number in front of it you may safely assume it is 1).
2 - 5 = -3 and 4 - 3 = 1, so we now know that the 2 fraction equations simplified is
x + 2 / (x + 2)(x - 5) * x - 3/(x -3)(x + 4)
Notice anything repeating? As long as they are apart of the same fraction, we can cross out anything that has the same x - number. Crossing out both x + 2 and x - 3, we now simply have x - 5 * x + 4. Because we crossed out both numerators, the top numbers both become 1, thus giving our answer, C.
