I dont think kris made a mistake
Explanation: lets try solving a fraction using kris’s method. Fraction:120/50
common multiple for both numbers:10
we divide 120 by 10 and 50 by 10= 12/5. We cant find and common multiples so thats the final answer.(using kris’s method)
if u try using a calculator u can see that the answer is 12/5 or 2.4. This means that kris’s method is not wrong

Solve for x: x^2 + 14x + 49
Kaylis [27]

Answer: -7twice

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question on root of quadratic equation. The interpretation of the question

x² 14x + 49 is

x² + 14x + 49 = 0.meaning that we are to find two possible values for x that will make the expression equal 0.

We can use any of the methods earlier taught. For the purpose of this class, I am using factorization methods

x² + 14x + 49 = 0

Now, find the product of the first and the last terms, is

x² × 49 = 49ײ

Now find two terms such that their productbis 49x² and their sum equals 14x, the one in the middle.

We have several factors of 49x² but only one will give sum of 14x. Because of the time, I will only go straight to the required factors .

49x² = 7x × 7x and the sum gives 14x the middle terms..

Now we now replace the middle one by the factors and then factorize by grouping.

x² + 14x + 49 = 0

x² + 7x + 7x + 49 = 0

x(x + 7) + 7(x + 7) = 0

(x + 7)(x + 7). = 0

Now to find this value of x,

x + 7 = 0

x. = -7twice.

The root of the equation = -7twice.

Scale a rectangle that has length 9 inches and width 17 inches by the scale factor determine the dimensions of the scaled rectan
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The dimensions of the scaled rectangle are

6.3\ in of length by 11.9\ in of width

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor is equal to 70\%

Remember that

70\%=70/100=0.70

The scale factor is less than 1

so

the dilation is a reduction

To find the dimensions of the scaled rectangle multiply the dimensions of the original rectangle by the scale factor

9*0.7=6.3\ in

17*0.7=11.9\ in

how can you use distributive property to write an expression equivalent to the one given above? Use reasoning to explain how you
Anit [1.1K]

The reason how the expression are equivalent given below:

<h3>What is Distributive Property?</h3>

Multiplying a number by a sum or difference is the same as multiplying by each number in the sum or difference and then adding or subtracting.

The Complete question is:

How can you use distributive property to write an expression equivalent to the one given above? Use reasoning to explain how you know the expressions are equivalent.

Distributive property represents distribute the outside number among the number or digits in parenthesis.

For Example: Solve the expression 7(20 + 3) using the distributive property of multiplication over addition.

When we solve the expression 7(20 + 3) using the distributive property,

we first multiply every addend by 7.

This is known as distributing the number 7 amongst the two addends and then we can add the products.

This means that the multiplication of 7(20) and 7(3) will be performed before the addition.

Hence,  7(20) + 7(3) = 140 + 21 = 161.

The answer is 6 7/8
2 \frac{1}{2}  + 4 \frac{3}{8}  =  \frac{5}{2}  +  \frac{35}{8}  =  \frac{20}{8}  +  \frac{35}{8}   \\ =  \frac{55}{8}  = 6 \frac{7}{8}
