Answer:

No, Matt did not solve the equation correctly

Correct Answer: x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) = 30

Step 1: Distribute

4x + 2 = 30      =>     This is his mistake, he should completely distribute 4    

                                  to x and 2

Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides/Isolate x

4x = 28           =>      This part is done correctly, but wrong because of Step 1

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4

x = 7                =>      This is correct, but again, he messed up on Step 1

<h3>Let's find the correct answer to this equation:</h3><h3>4(x +2) = 30</h3>

Step 1: Distribute

Remember to distribute 4 to all terms in the parenthesis.

4(x + 2) = 4(x) + 4(2)

            = 4x + 8

4x + 8 = 30

Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides/Isolate x

Move all the terms that do not belong to x to the other side. We can do this by subtracting 8 from both sides  => (opposite operation of adding 8)

4x + 8 = 30

4x = 30 - 8

4x = 32

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4/Isolate x

Now we want x by itself. Since x is being multiplied by 4, we have to use the opposite operation, dividing by 4, to have x on one side by itself

4x = 32

4(x) = 32

x = 32 ÷ 4

x = 8

Cos(-170°) = _____<br><br> -cos10°<br> cos10°<br> cos(-10°)
ikadub [295]

<em>The right answer for:</em>

<em>cos(-170°) = _____</em>

<em>is:</em>

<em>-cos10°</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The cosine function is an even function, which means that for every point (x,y) on the graph of y=cos(x) then the point (-x,y) also lies on the graph of the function. In other words, we can write:

cos(-170^{\circ})=cos(170^{\circ})

But:

170^{\circ}=180^{\circ}-10^{\circ}

So:

cos(170^{\circ})=cos(180^{\circ}-10^{\circ})

By property:

cos(a-b)=cosacosb+sinasinb \\ \\ a=180^{\circ} \\ \\ b=10^{\circ} \\ \\ cos(170^{\circ} )=cos(180^{\circ} -10^{\circ})=cos180^{\circ} cos10^{\circ} +sin180^{\circ} sin10^{\circ} \\ \\  cos(170^{\circ})=-cos(10^{\circ})+0 \\ \\ \boxed{cos(170^{\circ})=-cos(10^{\circ})}

1. Find the probability of this set of independent events. rolling a six on the first roll of a 1-6 number cube and rolling an o
jeyben [28]
For the first question, the chance of rolling a six is a 1/6 chance because there is one six and six different sides that could be rolled. As a percent, it would be 16.6 %. The probability of rolling an odd number on the second roll would be a 3/6 chance, which as a percent is 50 %. For the second question, both probabilities are 33 % because in both instances you are drawing three cards from nine total, so it would be 3/9. For the third question, the probability of drawing a blue marble is 3/5, because there are three blue marbles and five total marbles. As a percent, this is 60 %. Following this up with a green marble would be 2/4, because there are now 2 green marbles and four total marbles. One of the marbles was not replaced, so we have one less marble. 2/4 as a percent  is 50%.
