Answer: A)
The first one because the x don’t repeat
Answer:
~q→~p
Step-by-step explanation:
The contrapositive of a statement is formed by negating the hypothesis and conclusion of a statement and switching them (the hypothesis becomes the conclusion and vice versa).
With this definition we can conclude that the contrapositive of p→q would be ~q→~p
Answer:
(x - 3)(x + 1)(x + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
I'd use synthetic division instead. If we were to find the roots of the given polynomial, we could from them write the factors as well.
The divisor x + 5 corresponds to root x = -5. Setting up synthetic div.,
-5 ) 1 3 -13 -15
-5 10 +15
-----------------------------
1 -2 -3 0
Since the remainder is 0, we know that -5 is a root and (x + 5) is a factor. Moreover, we know that the coefficients of the quotient are 1, -2 and -3.
1x² - 2x - 3 can be factored: the factors are (x - 3) and (x + 1).
So the end result for this problem is (x - 3)(x + 1)(x + 5).
Answer: the length of each of the two equal sides is 25 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of each of the two equal sides. This means that the total length of the two longer sides is 2x.
Let y represent the length of the third side.
The perimeter of a triangle is expressed as the sum of the length of each side of the triangle. The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is 65 centimeters. It means that
2x + y = 65 - - - - - - - - - 1
Each of the equal sides is 10 centimeters longer than the third side. This means that
x = y + 10
Substituting x = y + 10 into equation 1, it becomes
2(y + 10) + y = 65
2y + 20 + y = 65
2y + y = 65 - 20
3y = 45
y = 45/3 = 15
Substituting y = 15 into x = y + 10, it becomes
x = 15 + 10 = 25
Answer:
3/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I think it is asking for an answer choice equal to 1/2, and 3/6 is equal to 1/2.
