Mathematics

Answer:

-2.8 or -14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide one fraction by another, there is a really cool method called Keep Change Flip

Keep the first fraction

Change the division sign to multiplication

Flip the numbers on the last fraction

Let's try it out.

Keep the 1/5

Change the ÷ to a ×

Flip the -1/14 to a -14/1

1/5 × -14/1

Multiply the top numbers by each other first

1 × -14 = -14

Now the bottom numbers

5 × -1 = -5

The fraction we have now is -14/5

It can also be written as -2.8

function a and function b are linear functions. function a is represented by the table values. function b is represented by the
Kryger [21]

The y-intercept of B is greater than the y-intercept of A and the rate of change of function A is less than the rate of change of B

<h3>Linear functions </h3>

The standard linear equation is expressed as y = mx + b

For the given table;

The y-intercept occur at x = 0

y = 3x + 4

y = 3(0) + 4

y = 4

For the table;

Using the coordinate points (1, 2) and (3,10)

rate of change "m" = 10-2/3-1
m = 8/2

m = 4

Recall that y = mx + b

2 = 4(1) + b

b = -2

Hence the y-intercept of B is greater than the y-intercept of A and the rate of change of function A is less than the rate of change of B.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

400

Step-by step explanation:

The sides of the regular polygon is 20 and more than 2  so you divide the two number up to get 10 and then also you multiply all of them up together  which is 400

Solve the equation by completing the square. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. x2 – 4x = 5
saw5 [17]

The solution to x^2 - 4x = 5 is x = -1 or 5

<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>

The equation is given as:

x^2 - 4x = 5

Take the coefficient of x

k = -4

Divide by 2

k/2 = -2

Square both sides

(k/2)^2 = 4

Add this value to the sides of the equation

x^2 - 4x + 4= 5 + 4

Express as a difference of two squares

(x - 2)^2 = 9

Take the square root of both sides

x - 2 = ±3

Add 2 to both sides

x = 2 ± 3

Evaluate

x = -1 or 5

Hence, the solution to x^2 - 4x = 5 is x = -1 or 5
