5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor of 5 to the side measuring 8 means that you multiply that side by the scale factor.

Basically, the equation would go like this:

Original Side Length: x

Scale Factor: y

New Side Length: z

xy=z

If we plug in our numbers, we get:

8*5=z

40=z

$(b) \: y = {(( - x) + 2)}^{2} - 5 = {( - (x - 2))}^{2} - 5 = {(x - 2)}^{2} - 5$

Shift of 2 units right and 5 units down

$\bf a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} \implies \sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}} \qquad \qquad
\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}\implies a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}\\\\
\left.\qquad \qquad \right.\textit{negative exponents}\\\\
a^{-{ n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}
\qquad \qquad
\cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}\implies a^{-{ n}}
\qquad \qquad 
a^{{{ n}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{a^{-{{ n}}}}
\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
%4(x+1)^2/3 + 12(x+1)^-1/3
4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}}+12(x+1)^{-\frac{1}{3}}\implies 4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}}+12\cfrac{1}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}
\\\\\\$

$\bf 4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\cfrac{12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\impliedby \textit{so, our LCD is }(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}}\cdot (x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{3}}+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4(x+1)^{\frac{3}{3}}+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4(x+1)+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4x+4+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4x+16}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4(x+4)}{\sqrt[3]{x+1}}$

The area of polygon MNOPQR = Area of a rectangle that is 9 square units + Area of a rectangle that is ___ square units. (Input w

masha68 [24]

Answer:

Area of polygon MNOPQR = 13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of smaller rectangle:

(7-3)= 4 units multiplied by (3-2) = 1 unit

= 4 sq. units.

Area of polygon MNOPQR

= 3*3 units + 4*1 units

= 9 units + 4 units

= 13 units

Kyle says the number is greater when an object is measured in centimeters than in millimeters. Is Kyle correct? Explain

Lerok [7]

False.

1 centimeter = 10 millimeters.

with this knowledge, we can say, for example, that:

70 (in millimeters) as a number is greater than 7 (in centimeter), as 70 > 7

hope this helps
