alex is working to simplify 5·(-8)·2


A. what is the product?

B. suppose Alex found the opposite of the correct product. describe an error he could have made that resulted in that product.

please answer quickly!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 5*(-8)*2=-80

B. Forgot about the signs

Step-by-step explanation:

Product of Signed Integers

The product of two integers with like (same) signs is positive. The product of two integers with different signs is negative.

A.

Alex is simplifying the product 5*(-8)*2. It can be done in any order, for example, let's multiply 5*(-8) first.

The numbers have different signs, so the product is negative and 8*5 =40, thus:  5*(-8)=-40.

Now we finish the operation multiplying (-40)*2. They have different signs, thus the result is negative and (-40)*2=-80, thus:

5*(-8)*2=-80

B.

If Alex found the opposite of the correct product, that is, 80 is more likely to have been the result of forgetting about the signs. He probably just multiplied the numbers regardless of their signs.

A gym's membership in 2012 was 9,300. The current membership is 2,800. Which expression can be used to find the
percent of change?

Answers

Answer:

Find the difference between the two, divide by the years, and should get the percent of change

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in percentage is 69.89%.

Given that, a gym's membership in 2012 was $9,300.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

The current membership is $2,800.

We know that, the percentage change = (New value - Original value)/Original value × 100

Now, the percentage change = (9300-2800)/9300 × 100

= 6500/9300 × 100

= 0.6989 × 100

= 69.89%

Therefore, the change in percentage is 69.89%.

  A. Given; B. multiplication; C. distributive; D. collect terms; E. addition; F. division

Step-by-step explanation:

You are expected to compare each line to the previous line and identify the changes. Apart from combining like terms (collecting terms), there are generally only three properties of interest: distributive property, addition property, multiplication property. Of course, subtraction and division are just addition and multiplication using the appropriate (additive, multiplicative) inverse.

The distributive property involves adding or deleting parentheses, so it is easy to identify.

If terms disappear, it can be due to terms being combined, or due to addition/subtraction. If coefficients disappear, it will generally be due to multiplication/division.

What is the square root function?

The square root function f(x)=√x has domain [0,∞) with range  [0,∞).

Similarly the given function is y=f(x)= √x+1

From the graph, it is clear that the function is valid for x≥0 because x<0 √x will be imaginary.

So the domain of the function f(x)= √x+1 will be [0,∞).

As we know,

√x ≥0

⇒ √x+1≥0+1

⇒√x+1 ≥ 1

⇒f(x) ≥ 1

the function f(x) has range [1,∞).

f(x)=√x+1 ha y intercept at x=0

f(0)= √0+1=1

f(x) has y intercept at (0,1).

Function F(x) will increase from point (0,1).

Therefore The graph for y= √x+1 is shown below.

Bijou Museum sells 75% of its tickets for the regular price of $14. The remaining discount tickets are sold for the price of $10. Variable cost per guest is $2 for both groups, and fixed costs total $66,000 per month. What are the number of regular-price guests and discount guests at the breakeven point?

Answers

Answer:

Regular price guests = 3300

Discount price guests = 1100

Step-by-step explanation:

Breakeven point is the point where total revenue and total cost are equal.

Now, we know total cost is $66,000 per month.

Now, we are told that the museum sells 75% of its tickets for the regular price of $14.

If the total number of tickets is x. It means the number of regular tickets guests is 75%x = 0.75x

We are told that variable cost per guest in each group is $2. This means that total revenue from regular tickets guest is;

14(0.75x) + 2(0.75x) = 12x

Now, the remaining tickets are discount tickets sold for $10.

It means number of discount tickets guests = 0.25x

Total revenue from discount tickets =

10(0.25x) + 2(0.25x) = 3x

Thus, at break even point, we have;

12x + 3x = 66000

15x = 66000

x = 66000/15

x = 4400

Thus;

Regular price guests = 0.75 × 4400 = 3300

Discount price guests = 0.25 × 4400 = 1100

You need two bottles of fertilizer to treat the flower garden shown. How many bottles do you need to treat a similar garden with a perimeter of 105 feet? A flower garden in the form of trapezoid is shown. The length of longer base is labeled 18 feet, shorter base is 15 feet, height is 4 feet, and one leg is 5 feet.

Answers

Answer:

26.25 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

A flower garden in the form of trapezoid is shown. The length of longer base is labeled 18 feet, shorter base is 15 feet, height is 4 feet, and one leg is 5 feet.

Formula for perimeter of a trapezoid = Side a + side b + length a + length b

For the trapezium shown, its perimeter step 1,

we have to find the missing length

Length a

We are given height = 4 feet

Length of the longer base = 18 feet

Length of the shorter base = 15 feet

Different would give us the base of the right angle triangle

= 18 - 15 = 3 feet

Using Pythagoras Theorem we can find the side a = c

a² + b² = c²

3² + 4² = c²

9 + 16 = c²

c = √25

c = 5 feet

Hence side a = 5 feet

Perimeter of the Trapezoid shown =

18 feet + 15 feet + 5 feet + 5 feet

= 38 feet.

From the question,

You need two bottles of fertilizer to treat the flower garden shown. How many bottles do you need to treat a similar garden with a perimeter of 105 feet

Hence:

38 feet = 2 bottles

105 feet = x bottles

Cross y

= 38 × x = 105 × 2

= 38x = 105 × 2

x = 105 × 2/38

x = 26.25 bottles

26.25 bottles of fertilizer is needed to treat the garden with a perimeter of 105

Log2 x + log2 (6-x)=3 solve for x algebraically

Answers

Answer:

The solution is x = 2 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some rules in logarithmic function:

[tex]log_{a}(x)+log_{a}(y)=log_{a}(xy)[/tex]The logarithmic function is the inverse of the exponential function [tex]log_{b}(c)=a[/tex]  is the inverse of  [tex]b^{a}=c[/tex]

Let us solve the question

∵ [tex]log_{2}(x)+log_{2}(6-x)=3[/tex]

→ By using the first rule above

∴ [tex]log_{2}(x)(6-x)=3[/tex]

→ Multiply x by (6 - x)

∵ x(6 - x) = x(6) - x(x) = 6x - x²

∴ [tex]log_{2}(6x-x^{2})=3[/tex]

→ Change the logarithmic function to exponential function using

   the second rule above

∴ [tex]2^{3}=(6x-x^{2})[/tex]

∵ 2³ = 8

8 = 6x - x²

→ Add x² to both sides

∴ x² + 8 = 6x

→ Subtract 6x from both sides

∴ x² - 6x + 8 = 0

→ Factorize it into 2 brackets

(x - 2)(x - 4) = 0

→ Equate each factor by 0 to find the values of x

∵ x - 2 = 0

→ Add 2 to both sides

x = 2

∵ x - 4 = 0

→ Add 4 to both sides

x = 4

∴ The values of x are 2 and 4

The solution of the equation is x = 2 and x = 4

Determine whether the statements are True or False. Justify your answer with an explanation.

If f(x) = x + 1 and g(x) = 6x, then (f ○ g)(x) = (g ○ f)(x).

If you are given two functions f(x) and g(x), you can calculate (f ○ g)(x) if and only if the range of g is a subset of the domain of f.

Answers

Problem 1

Answer: False

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

Explanation:

The notation (f o g)(x) means f( g(x) ). Here g(x) is the inner function.

So,

f(x) = x+1

f( g(x) ) = g(x) + 1 .... replace every x with g(x)

f( g(x) ) = 6x+1 ... plug in g(x) = 6x

(f o g)(x) = 6x+1

Now let's flip things around

g(x) = 6x

g( f(x) ) = 6*( f(x) ) .... replace every x with f(x)

g( f(x) ) = 6(x+1) .... plug in f(x) = x+1

g( f(x) ) = 6x+6

(g o f)(x) = 6x+6

This shows that (f o g)(x) = (g o f)(x)  is a false equation for the given f(x) and g(x) functions.

===============================================

Problem 2

Answer: True

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

Explanation:

Let's say that g(x) produced a number that wasn't in the domain of f(x). This would mean that f( g(x) ) would be undefined.

For example, let

f(x) = 1/(x+2)

g(x) = -2

The g(x) function will always produce the output -2 regardless of what the input x is. Feeding that -2 output into f(x) leads to 1/(x+2) = 1/(-2+2) = 1/0 which is undefined.

So it's important that the outputs of g(x) line up with the domain of f(x). Outputs of g(x) must be valid inputs of f(x).

The given statement is false.

What is composite function ?

Composite function is a combination of two or more than two functions combined by mathematical operation of addition,subtraction,multiplication and division.Where output of one function is input to the other function.

According to the given question two functions are given f(x) and g(x) and and we have to compose in different order and see if they are same or not.

Given, f(x) = x + 1 and g(x) = 6x

So, (fog)(x) is, output of g(x) is the input of f(x) which is

f(6x) = (6x) + 1

f(6x) = 6x + 1.

Now, (gof)(x) is, output of f(x) is now input of g(x) which is

g(x+1) = 6(x+1)

g(x+1) = 6x + 6.

Thus we can see fog(x) gof(x).

What is a line segment?

A line section that can connect two places is referred to as a segment.

In other words, a line segment is just part of a big line that is straight and going unlimited in both directions.

The line is here! It extends endlessly in both directions and has no beginning or conclusion.

The only bisector of MN is JK and it is at the midpoint of the line segment MN so it will be a bisector.

Now,

Since JK is the bisector of MN

M(JK) = (JK)N

26 = (JK)N

MN = 2(26) = 52
