A teacher asked the class to solve the equation 3(x + 2) = 21. Robert wrote 3x + 6 = 21 as his first step. Which property did he use?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

He used the distributive property

Answer 2

Answer:

Robert used the distributive property.

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 2) = 21 <------- is the original equation.

3x + 6 = 21   <------- is Robert's first step.

Distributive property is a property that states that multiplying the constant by the numerical values/variables in the parentheses will equal the same as multiplying the consonant by the values added together.

Robert multiplied 3 times "x" and "2." This is the distributive property.

I hope this helps! :)

What is the x-intercept of the line?

Answers

Answer:

x- incept = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Take any two points and find the slope.

(-94 , 24)   & (-74 , 18)

[tex]Slope =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\ = \frac{18-24}{-74-[-94]}\\\\=\frac{18-24}{-74+94}\\\\=\frac{-6}{20}\\\\=\frac{-3}{10}\\[/tex]

(-94 , 24) and m = -3/10

Equation of the line:

[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x- x_{1})\\\\y - 24 =\frac{-3}{10}(x - [-94])\\\\y-24 =\frac{-3}{10}(x + 94)\\\\y-24=\frac{-3}{10}x + 94*\frac{-3}{10}\\\\y-24 = -0.3x- 28.2\\\\ y = -0.3x - 28.2 + 24\\\\ y = -0.3x - 4.2[/tex]

At x-intercept y = 0

0 =  -0.3x - 4.2

4.2 = - 0.3x

4.2/-0.3 = x

This is due at 2

Answers

Jenn's account has the greater simple interest rate

Where A is the final amount after investment, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of interest and t is the time periods.

For Lindsey:

Lindsey simple interest was 1.2% annually

For Jenn:

Jenn simple interest was 1.5% annually

Therefore Jenn's account has the highest simple interest rate.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"EamonnAdams1992"

Answer:

She has a higher interest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

Lindsay’s interest is $3 for one year. Using the formula for interest, I = prt, Lindsey’s money is earning at a rate of 1.2%. Jenn has earned $3.75 for one year. Her money is earning at a rate of 1.5%, which is a higher interest rate.

Answers

Answer:

134.24 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder, V = [tex]\pi[/tex]r²h

Plug in the radius, pi, and the height:

V = [tex]\pi[/tex]r²h

V = (3.14)(1.5²)(19)

V = 134.235

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 15.6 cm. Find the lengths of its sides, if: The base is 3 cm smaller than a leg.

Answers

Answer:

The sides of the isosceles triangle are 3.2 cm, 6.2 cm and 6.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of an isosceles triangle are equal in length

Let the base be x cm

Since it is 3 cm smaller than a leg, the legs will be (x + 3) cm

To find the perimeter of a triangle, we add up the sides

x + x + 3 + x + 3 = 15.6

3x + 6 = 15.6

3x = 15.6 - 6

3x = 9.6

x = 9.6/3

x = 3.2 cm

So the base is 3 + 3.2 =6.2 cm

Four friends do yardwork for their neighbors over the weekend, earning $\$15$, $\$20$, $\$25$, and $\$40$, respectively. They decide to split their earnings equally among themselves. In total how much will the friend who earned $\$40$ give to the others?

Answers

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A, B, C and D represent the four friends respectively.

Given the following data;

Amount earned by A = $15

Amount earned by B = $20

Amount earned by C = $25

Amount earned by D = $40

Total amount earned = 15 + 20 + 25 + 40

Total amount earned = $100

For an equal ration, each friend should be given;

Each earnings = total amount earned/number of friends

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Each earnings = 100/4

Each earnings = $25

Hence, for D with $40, would become;

D = $40 - $25

D = $15

Therefore, D would give A $10 and give B $5.

prove algebraically that n^2 -n is never an odd number when n>1

Answers

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to prove that:

[tex]n^2-n[/tex]

Is never an odd number when n>1.

We will have two cases. We can prove them for each case individually.

The Even Case: n is Even:

Let n be even. Then, we can rewrite n as:

[tex]n=2k[/tex]

Where k is any positive integer.

This is because twice of any integer is even, so n must be even.

Substitute this into our expression to acquire:

[tex]=(2k)^2-(2k)[/tex]

Square:

[tex]=4k^2-2k[/tex]

4 times anything is even. 2 times anything is also even. Therefore, our expression will stay even.

The Odd Case: n is Odd:

Let n be odd. Then we can rewrite n as:

[tex]n=2k-1[/tex]

Where k is any positive integer.

This is odd because twice of any number is even, but if subtracted by 1, it yields an odd number.

We will substitute this into our expression to acquire:

[tex]=(2k-1)^2-(2k-1)[/tex]

Square:

[tex]=(4k^2-4k+1)+(-2k+1)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]=4k^2-6k+2[/tex]

4 times anything is even. 6 times anything is even. And anything even added to 2 will still be even.

Therefore:

[tex]n^2-n[/tex]

Will never be an odd number when n>1.
