Jackson gave Lena this expression to evaluate: 14(8 + 12). Lena said that to evaluate the expression was simple; just multiply the factors 14 and 20. Jackson told Lena she was wrong. He solved it by finding the product of 14 and 8 and then adding that to the product of 14 and 12.


a. Evaluate the expression using each student’s method.

b. Who was right in this discussion? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In this discussion, they both got  the same answer, so they're both right. However, when Jackson said Lena was wrong, he was incorrect, because Lena's way was also correct. So, they were both right in this discussion when it comes to the answers, but Jackson was wrong when he said lena was wrong. (I hope this helped).

Step-by-step explanation:

Lena: 14(8 + 12)

14(20)

280

Jackson: 14 x 8 = 112

14 x 12 = 168

168 + 112 = 280

A square pyramid with triangular sides with a base of 9 inches and height 4 inches. [Not drawn to Scale] What is the surface area of the figure? 261 in.2 333 in.2 405 in.2 477 in.2

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D 477 in.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the composite figure is 333 sq. in.

The correct answer is an option (2) 333 in²

What is a pyramid?

"It is a three-dimensional geometric shape with a polygon as its base and the lateral surfaces as triangles which meet at a common point."

What is rectangular prism?

"It is a three-dimensional geometric structure which has six faces that are rectangles."

What is a composite figure?

"A figure that consists of two or more geometric shapes."

Area of rectangle:

A = length × width

Area of the triangle:

A = 1/2 × base × height

For given example,

A rectangular prism and a square pyramid were joined to form a composite figure.

The composite figure would have nine faces with four triangular faces and five rectangular faces.

Surface area of the composite figure would be the sum of surface area of  all nine faces.

The dimensions of the rectangular base the composite figure are length of 9 inches, width of 9 inches.

Using the formula for an area of the rectangle,

⇒ A1 = 9 × 9

⇒ A1 = 81 square inches

The surface area of the larger vertical rectangular faces is same.

So, A2 = 2 × (area of the larger vertical rectangular faces)

The dimensions of the larger vertical rectangular faces 9 inches × 5 inches.

⇒ A2 = 2 × (9 × 5)

⇒ A2 = 2 × 45

⇒ A2 = 90 square inches

Similarly, the surface area of the smaller vertical rectangular faces is same.

So, A3 = 2 × (area of the smaller vertical rectangular faces)

The dimensions of the smaller vertical rectangular faces 9 inches × 5 inches

⇒ A3 = 2 × (9 × 5)

⇒ A3 = 2 × 45

⇒ A3 = 90 square inches

The four triangular faces are identical.

Let A4 be the total surface area of four triangular faces.

⇒ A4 = 4 × (area of triangular face)

⇒ A4 = 4 × (1/2 × base × height)

⇒ A4 = 4 × (1/2 × 9 × 4)

⇒ A4 = 4 × 18

⇒ A4 = 72 square inches

So, the surface area of the composite figure is,

⇒ A = A1 + A2 + A3 + A4

⇒ A =  81 + 90 + 90 + 72

A = 333 sq. in.

Therefore, the surface area of the composite figure is 333 sq. in.

The correct answer is an option (2) 333 in²

What is the total surface area of the composite solid?
521 square inches
1,042 square inches
1,072 square inches
1,992 square inches

Answers

Answer

the answer is b. im not sure though

Step-by-step explanation:

1042 square inches is the total surface area of composite solids.

It is clear from the image that the resulting composite solid is a cuboid.

whose sides are as follows

Across the length, there are 3 blocks along the side of 7 inches each.

[tex]Length = 7 \times 3 = 21\ inch[/tex]

Width = 5 inch

Across the height, there are 4 blocks along the side of 4 inches each.

[tex]Height = 4 \times 4 = 16\ inch[/tex]

What is the total surface area of a cuboid?

[tex]\text{Total Surface Area = } 2 (l\times w+ w \times h+ h \times l)[/tex]

We know that the total surface area of a cuboid is,

[tex]\text{Total Surface Area = } 2 (l\times w+ w \times h+ h \times l)\Rightarrow 2 (21 \times 5 + 16 \times 21 + 16 \times 5 )\\\Rightarrow 2 (105 + 336+80)\\\Rightarrow 2 \times 521\\\Rightarrow 1024[/tex]

Therefore, the total surface area = 1024 square inches.

Fiona is trying to prove that a pair of expressions are equivalent by using substitution. Which pair of expressions has the same value if she substitutes y = 3?

Answers

Missing Part of the Question

3 (4 - y) -7 ; 5 + 3y 9 + y + 4y - 2 - 3y; -2y + 7 5 + y - 2 - 6y + y; 8y + 3 2y + 7 + y - 2 + y; 4y + 5

Answer:

2y + 7 + y - 2 + y; 4y + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 3

Required

Which pair of expression are equal

To get the pair of expression that are equal; we simply substitute 3 for y in each of the expressions

3 (4 - y) -7 and 5 + 3y

Substitute 3 for y in 3 (4 - y) -7

This gives 3(4 - 3) -7

= 3(1) - 7

= 3 - 7

= -4

Then Substitute 3 for y in 5 + 3y

This gives  5 + 3(3)

= 5 + 9

= 14

-4 and 14 are not equal

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

9 + y + 4y - 2 - 3y; -2y + 7

Substitute 3 for y in 9 + y + 4y - 2 - 3y

This gives 9 + 3 + 4(3) - 2 - 3(3)

= 9 + 3 + 12 - 2 - 9

= 13

Then Substitute 3 for y in -2y + 7

This gives  -2(3) + 7

= -6 + 7

= 1

13 and 1 are not equal

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

5 + y - 2 - 6y + y; 8y + 3

Substitute 3 for y in 5 + y - 2 - 6y + y

This gives 5 + 3 - 2 - 6(3) + 3

= 5 + 3 - 2 - 18 + 3

= -9

Then Substitute 3 for y in 8y + 3

This gives  8(3) + 3

= 24 + 3

= 27

-9 and 27 are not equal

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

2y + 7 + y - 2 + y; 4y + 5

Substitute 3 for y in 2y + 7 + y - 2 + y

This gives 2(3) + 7 + 3 - 2 + 3

= 6 + 7 + 3 - 2 + 3

= 17

Then Substitute 3 for y in 4y + 5

This gives  4(3) + 5

= 12 + 5

= 17

17 and 17 are equal

Hence, Option D is correct

​What is one solution to the system of equations?

Answers

Answer:

(-4,7)

Explanation:

I graphed the two equations with a graphing tool.

The first equation forms a parabola.

The second equation is linear.

The graphed equations intercept at two points. Since the question asked for one, then one solution of the system is (-4,7).

Answer:

(- 4, 7 ) and (2, - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x² - 9 → (1)

y = - 2x - 1 → (2)

Substitute y = x² - 9 into (2)

x² - 9 = - 2x - 1 ( subtract - 2x - 1 from both sides )

x² + 2x - 8 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 4)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

Substitute these values into (2) for corresponding values of y

x = - 4 → y = - 2(- 4) - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7 ⇒ (- 4, 7 )

x = 2 → y = - 2(2) - 1 = - 4 - 1 = - 5 ⇒ (2, - 5 )

C.
(x + 4)(x + 1)

(x + 1)(x - 4)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A

The factored equivalent of x² - 5x + 4 is option A: (x - 1)(x - 4).

To factor the quadratic expression x² - 5x + 4, we need to find two binomials that, when multiplied, will result in the given expression.

We can start by looking for two numbers whose product is 4 (the constant term) and whose sum is -5 (the coefficient of the x term).

The numbers that satisfy these conditions are -1 and -4, as (-1)(-4) = 4 and -1 + (-4) = -5.

Using these numbers, we can express the quadratic expression as:

x² - 5x + 4 = (x - 1)(x - 4)

Therefore, the factored equivalent of x² - 5x + 4 is option A: (x - 1)(x - 4).
