The work of a student to solve the equation 3(2x − 4) = 8 + 2x + 6 is shown below:

Step 1: 3(2x − 4) = 8 + 2x + 6
Step 2: 5x − 7 = 14 + 2x
Step 3: 5x − 2x = 14 + 7
Step 4: 3x = 21
Step 5: x = 7

In which step did the student first make an error and what is the correct step?
Step 2; 6x − 12 = 14 + 2x
Step 2; 6x − 7 = 2(6 + x + 4)
Step 3; 5x − 2x = 14 − 7
Step 3; 5x + 2x = 14 + 7

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The student made the error at step 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct step will be:

Step 2; 6x − 12 = 14 + 2x

As 3 will be multiplied with 2x and 4 which will give 6x − 12

I. The data distribution is skewed
II. The interquartile range is 6
III. The median is 10
A) I only
B) II only
C) I and II only
D) II and III only

Answers

I think the answer is A because the data is skewed to the right 
The median (middle) isn't 10, it's 8 
The interquartile range (IQR) is 7 not 6 because you have to subtract the first and third quartile 13 - 6 = 7 not 6

The function y = 41 ? 0.95x models the difference (in minutes) between men's and women's finishing times for the boston marathon. the number of years since women first officially ran the race in 1972 is represented by x.

a. does the exponential function represent growth or decay?

b. estimate the difference between finishing times in 1990.

c. predict the difference between finishing times in 2005.

Answers

We are given a function:
[tex]y=41* 0.95^{x} [/tex]

a. Does the exponential function represent growth or decay?
To find out if this is growth or decay we need to observe number that is connected with x. If number is less than 1 we have decay and if it is greaer than 1 we have growth.
In our case we have number 0.95 which is less than 1 so we have decay.

b. Estimate the difference between finishing times in 1990.
x represents the number of years since 1972.
[tex]x=1990-1972=18[/tex]
Now we insert this number into equation to get solution.
[tex]y=41* 0.95^{18} = 16.29[/tex]

c. Predict the difference between finishing times in 2005.
[tex]x=2005-1972=33[/tex]
[tex]y=41* 0.95^{33} = 7.55[/tex]

Answers

c= number of crickets
g= number of grasshoppers= twice number of crickets= 2c
T= total number of both= 561

If you add the number of crickets and the number if grasshoppers, you'll get a total of 561.

c + g= T
c + g= 561

Now we also know that grasshoppers are 2c (twice the crickets). Substitute 2c for g in the equation to solve for c.

c + g= 561
c + 2c= 561
combine like terms
3c= 561
divide both sides by 3
c= 187 crickets

Substitute number of crickets back in equation to find g.

c + g= 561
187 + g= 561
subtract 187 from both sides
g= 374 grasshoppers

CHECK:
Since grasshoppers are twice the number of crickets, then multiplying the number of crickets by two should equal the number of grasshoppers.
187 * 2= 374
374= 374

ANSWER: 187 crickets and 374 grasshoppers

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in circle O.

What is ​ m∠B ​ ?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

The measure of angle B is 125 degrees in the given quadrilateral inscribed in circle O.

In a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle, opposite angles are supplementary.

Therefore, we can set up the equation:

∠A + ∠C = 180 degrees

Substituting the given values:

(2x-7) + (x+4) = 180

Combining like terms:

3x - 3 = 180

Adding 3 to both sides:

3x = 183

Dividing both sides by 3:

x = 61

Now we can find ∠B:

∠B = 2x + 3

∠B = 2(61) + 3

∠B = 122 + 3

∠B = 125

Therefore, m∠B is equal to 125 degrees.

The Great Pyramids of Giza are dedicated to Khafre, Khufu, and Menkaure. Tutankhamen did not have a pyramid dedicated to him and the tomb he was buried in was even smaller than was typical by that point in Egyptian history for someone of his social status.
Final answer:

The Great Pyramids of Giza in Egypt are dedicated to Khafre, Khufu, and Menkaure, but not Tutankhamen.

Explanation:

The Great Pyramids of Giza in Egypt are dedicated to three pharaohs - Khafre, Khufu, and Menkaure. The pharaoh that is not associated with one of the Great Pyramids is Tutankhamen. Tutankhamen, also known as King Tut, ruled during the 18th dynasty of the New Kingdom but was not part of the Fourth Dynasty that built the pyramids at Giza.

Kareem wants to wallpaper the back wall of his bedroom. The wall is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is
13 feet and its width is 12
feet. The wallpaper costs $8
for each square foot. How much will wallpaper cost for the wall?

Answers

The first step in solving this problem is to compute for the area of the rectangular wall. The formula in computing the area of a rectangle is:

A = LW

Substituting the given measurements in the problem to the formula:

A = 13 (12)

A = 156

Therefore, the area of the wall is 156 square feet. To compute the wallpaper cost of the wall, you have to multiply the cost per square foot to the total area.

$8 per square foot x 156 square feet = $1,248

Therefore, the wallpaper cost for the wall is $1,248

Factored Form is (x+4)(x+2)
Expanded Form is x^2+6x+8

----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

The factored form is simply a matter of reading off the values from the given image. There isn't much work to show here.
Along the left side we have x and 4 so x+4 is one of the factors. Along the bottom we have x and 2, so x+2 is another factor
The two factors are (x+4) and (x+2) so that's why the factored form is (x+4)(x+2)

-------------------------------

Let's expand out the factored form

The overall rectangle is broken up into four parts. I'll label the four smaller rectangles as...

Rectangle A in the upper left corner (this rectangle is x by x)
Rectangle B in the upper right corner (this rectangle is 2 by x)
Rectangle C in the lower left corner (this rectangle is x by 4)
Rectangle D in the lower right corner (this rectangle is 2 by 4)

The idea is that adding the areas of rectangles A through D leads us to the overall area for this largest rectangle.

Area of Rectangle A = (length)*(width) = x*x = x^2
Area of Rectangle B = (length)*(width) = 2*x = 2x
Area of Rectangle C = (length)*(width) = x*4 = 4x
Area of Rectangle D = (length)*(width) = 2*4 = 8

Notice we have the like terms 2x and 4x (areas of rectangle C and D respectively). They combine to 2x+4x = 6x

So after adding all the individual areas and combining like terms, we arrive at the fully expanded form of x^2+6x+8

Hope this helps.

24 is 32% of 75. The answer can be found by setting up a proportion: n/75 is set equal to 32/100, where x represents 32% of 75. By using cross multiplying and solving for the variable "n" we can determine that n = 24. Therefore, the equation n = 0.32(75) could be used to determine the correct answer. The formula n = 75 ÷ 0.32 is incorrect.

Answers

The angles in order from smallest to largest would be ∠E, ∠F, ∠D.

∠D is opposite side EF.  ∠E is opposite side DF.  ∠F is opposite side DE.  The sides that are the smallest correspond with the smallest angles, and the sides that are the largest correspond with the largest angles.
Answer: The order from smallest to largest is <E, <F, <D

First, you should draw a picture of triangle DEF and label all of the sides. Then, you will have an idea of what the triangle looks like and the relative size of the angles.

You can also look at the side opposite of the angle. The larger the opposite side, the larger the angle.

When you add both equations, you can then cross out both y terms. You are left with one equation that reads: 13x=26. Solving for x gives you 2.
