Fernando evaluated the expression below. What was Fernando’s error?
Answer:
C. Fernando incorrectly found the product of -2 and -5.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given an image, which represents work of Fernando's evaluation of an expression. We are asked to find the error in Fernando's work.
[tex]\frac{5(9-5)}{2}+(-2)(-5)+(-3)^2[/tex]
Let us evaluate our given expression using order of operations (PEMDAS).
[tex]\frac{5(4)}{2}+(-2*-5)+9[/tex]
[tex]\frac{20}{2}+10+9[/tex]
[tex]10+10+9[/tex]
[tex]29[/tex]
Since we know that product of two negative numbers is always positive, therefore, the product of negative 2 and negative 5 will be positive 10.
Therefore, Fernando incorrectly found the product of -2 and -5 and option C is the correct choice.

What is Scale?The ratio between a distance on a map and its actual distance on the ground is known as the map's scale. Since scale must vary throughout a map due to the curvature of the Earth's surface, this straightforward idea is made more difficult. This change makes the idea of size significant in two different ways.
Given, An advertisement on a billboard measures 22 ft long and 8 ft high. If the ad is transferred to the side of a bus and is 30 ft. Long.
when the advertisement is 22 ft long then the height is 8 ft.
So,
When the advertisement is 1 ft long then the height is = 8/22 ft.
the advertisement is 1 ft long then the height is = 4/11 ft.
thus,
the advertisement is 30 ft long then the height is = 4/11 * 30 ft.
the advertisement is 30 ft long then the height is = 120/11 ft.
the advertisement is 30 ft long then the height is = 10 ft 11 inches.
Therefore, When the advertisement is 30 ft long then the height is 10 ft 11 inches.

What is the line of symmetry for the parabola whose equation is y = x2 + 10x + 25? x = -10 x = -5 x = 5
Answer:
[tex]y=x^2 + 10x + 25\\\\y=(x+5)^2[/tex]
Used the identity, [tex](a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2[/tex]
The given parabola is of the form , [tex](x+a)^2=y[/tex], having vertex at ,which can be obtained by
x+a=0
x= -a
(-a,0).
So, vertex of the given parabola is , at (-5,0).
The Meaning of term line of symmetry,is that line which divides the parabola in two equal halves.
Drawing the parabola,and finding the line of symmetry,which can be obtained by drawing a line parallel to y axis, passing through (-5,0).
So, the equation of line is : x= -5

Line segment XY is tangent to circle Z at point U. If the measure of UV is 84, what is the measure of YUV. A. 42 B. 84 C. 96 D. 168
Answer:
The measure of angle YUV is equal to [tex]m<YUV=42\°[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we have that
[tex]arc\ UV=84\°[/tex] -----> given problem
so
[tex]m<UZV=84\°[/tex] ------> by central angle
we know that
The triangle UZV is an isosceles triangle
because
[tex]ZU=ZV=radius[/tex]
so
[tex]m<ZUV=m<ZVU[/tex] -----> bases angle of the isosceles triangle
Remember that
The sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to [tex]180\°[/tex]
so
[tex]m<ZUV+m<ZVU+m<UZV=180\°[/tex]
[tex]2m<ZUV+m<UZV=180\°[/tex]
substitute and solve for m<ZUV
[tex]2m<ZUV+84\°=180\°[/tex]
[tex]m<ZUV=(180\°-84\°)/2=48\°[/tex]
[tex]m<ZUV+m<YUV=90\°[/tex] ------> by complementary angles
solve for m<YUZ
[tex]48\°+m<YUV=90\°[/tex]
[tex]m<YUV=90\°-48\°=42\°[/tex]

A tourist in ireland wants to visit seven different cities. if the route is randomly selected, what is the probability that the tourist will visit the cities in alphabetical order? round your answer to five decimal places.
The probability that the tourist will visit the cities in alphabetical order is 0.00020.
There are a total of 7! ways to visit 7 different cities, but there is only one way to visit them in alphabetical order. So, the probability that the tourist will visit the cities in alphabetical order is:
1/7! = 1/5040 = 0.0002
To five decimal places, the probability is 0.00020.
Here is a step-by-step explanation of the calculation:
We can think of the route as a permutation of 7 letters, with no of the letters being identical.
The number of permutations of 7 letters is 7!.
So, the number of ways to visit the cities in alphabetical order is 1.
The probability that the tourist will visit the cities in alphabetical order is 1/7!.
Here are some additional things to consider:
The probability that the tourist will visit the cities in alphabetical order is very small, because there are many other possible routes.
The probability would be 1 if there were only one city to visit.
The probability would be 0 if there were 7 cities and the tourist had to visit them all in alphabetical order.

A bamboo shoot is 20 inches tall at day 0 and grows 24 inches each day. which function(s) shown below can be used to determine height, f(n), of the bamboo after n days?
I. f(n)=24n+20
II. f(n)=24n+20(n-1)
III. f(n)=f(n-1)+24 where f(0)=20
Answer:
The correct answer is option I
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial height of bamboo [tex]= 20 in\\[/tex]
Height of bamboo grows by [tex]24 in \\[/tex] every day
Let "n" be the number of days
So the height of bamboo after "n" days is
[tex]f(n) = 20 + 24n\\[/tex]

The division between functions is defined as:
[tex](\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ,\hspace{10}g(x)\neq0[/tex]
So:
[tex](\frac{f}{g} )(x)=\frac{3x^2+10x-8}{3x^2-2x}\\ \\Factor\hspace{3}x\hspace{3}out\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}denominator\\\\(\frac{f}{g} )(x)=\frac{3x^2+10x-8}{x(3x-2)}\\\\Factor\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}numerator\\\\(\frac{f}{g} )(x)=\frac{4(3x-2)+x(3x-2)}{x(3x-2)}\\\\Factor\hspace{3}3x-2\hspace{3}from\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}numerator\\\\(\frac{f}{g} )(x)=\frac{(3x-2)(x+4)}{x(3x-2)}=\frac{x+4}{x}[/tex]

How much will it cost to mail a first-class letter that weighs 2.8 oz?
The rate is $.22 for the first ounce and $.17 for each additional
ounce or fraction of an ounce.
a. $.56
b. $5.60
c. $.53
d. $.39
Final answer:
The total cost to mail a first-class letter that weighs 2.8 oz is $0.56, which includes $0.22 for the first ounce and $0.34 for the additional weight.
Explanation:
To calculate the cost of mailing a first-class letter that weighs 2.8 oz, you need to know the initial rate for the first ounce and the rate for each additional ounce. According to the given rates, the cost for the first ounce is $0.22, and each additional ounce (or fraction thereof) costs $0.17.
Since the letter weighs 2.8 oz, you have 1.8 oz over the first ounce. Thus, you need to pay for 2 additional ounces.
The total cost = cost for first ounce + cost for additional ounces = $0.22 + 2 x $0.17 = $0.22 + $0.34 = $0.56. Therefore, the correct answer is (a) $.56.
