Answers

Answer:

B. (m-1)(m-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 8 (constant term) are

{(1,8), (2,4)}, from which we see that 1+8 = 9, the absolute value of the coefficient of the second term.

Therefore we can group the expression as

m^2 - 9m + 8

= m^2-m - (8m -8)

then factor each group

= m(m-1) - 8(m-1)

and factor out (m-1)

= (m-1)(m-8)

(m-1)(m-8) is the correct answer

Find RS. A. 5 B. 10 C. 9 D. 12

Answers

Answer:

RS = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x use the equation 2x - 6 + 1 + x - 4 = 18

When you solve this x should equal 9

To find RS plug in x in (x-4)

9 - 4 (5)

Answer:

5 (Answer A)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram we know that 2x - 6 + 1 + x - 4  must equal  18.

Then 2x - 6 + 1 + x - 4 = 18.  Combining like terms, we get:

3x - 5 - 4 = 18, or 3x - 9 = 18

Then 3x = 27, and so x must be 9.

Then the length of RS is 9 - 4 = 5 (Answer A)

John and Maria also want to put new tile in their living room. The floor measures 20 feet long by
20 feet wide. The tiles they want to purchase cost $2.25 each, and each tile covers exactly 1 square
foot of floor space. How much will they need to spend on tile? (Section 10.8) (1 point)

Answers

Answer:

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the floor with the equation A = lw

A = lw

A = (20)(20)

A = 400 ft²

Since each tile covers 1 sq ft and the floor's area is 400 sq ft, they will need 400 tiles.

To calculate the total cost, multiply 400 by 2.25

400(2.25) = 900

= $900

900 dollars they will spend

In a Euler diagram, “No X are Y” would be represented how?

Answers

Answer: Two separated circles, one called X and the other called Y.

(so there is no element of the set X that is also in the set Y)

Step-by-step explanation:

"No X are Y"

This means that there is not a single element in the set X that is also in the set Y.

So in an Euler diagram, you can represent this as two circles, one called Y and other called X, where the circles do not intersect or touch at any point.

This particular case is represented similarly to how you would represent it in a  Venn diagram

An isotope of lead, 201Pb, has a half-life of 8.4 hours. How many hours ago was there 70% more of the substance? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) hr

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

half life time-50%-8.4hr

so for 10%- 8.4/5=1.68 hr

now for 70%

1.68 × 7 = 11.76 hrs

to one decimal place - 11.8hrs

11.8 hours ago, there were 70% more of the substance if an isotope of lead has a half-life of 8.4 hours.

What is half-life?

Half life is the time that it takes for half of the original value of some amount of a radioactive element to decay.

Half-life period - 50% -8.4hours

so for 10%- 8.4/5 = 1.68 hour

now for 70%

1.68 × 7 = 11.76 hours

To one decimal place - 11.8hours

Hence, 11.8hours is the answer.

Step 1. Add 8 to both sides

60 = 5u

Step 2. Solve for u

5u = 60

u = 60/5

u = 12

Answer:

12 = u

Step-by-step explanation:

52=5u-8

Add 8 to each side

52+8=5u-8+8

60 = 5u

Divide each side by 5

60/5 = 5u/5

Find the sine and cosine of each angle as a fraction and as a decimal. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

1st triangle:

sin(C): 0.64, [tex]\frac{16}{25}[/tex]

cos(C): 0.8, [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Second triangle:

sin(C): 0.75, [tex]\frac{\sqrt{5} }{3}[/tex]

cos(C): 0.67, [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using SOH CAH TOA, we know that to find the sin of an angle, it's Opposite/Hypotenuse.

To find the cos of an angle, it's adjacent/hypotenuse.

In the 1st triangle:

The adjacent to C is 16, the hypotenuse is 25.

[tex]\frac{16}{25} = 0.64[/tex] is the sin of C.

The adjacent to C is 20, and the hypotenuse is 25.

[tex]\frac{20}{25} = 0.8[/tex] is the cos of C.

In the second triangle:

The opposite to C is [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] and the hypotenuse is 2.

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{5} }{2} \approx0.75[/tex] is the sin of C.

The adjacent to C is 2 and the hypotenuse is 3.

[tex]\frac{2}{3} \approx 0.67[/tex] is the cos of C.

Answer: (A) 15 degrees

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

Explanation:

With any parallelogram, the adjacent angles always add to 180 degrees.

(angle ADC) + (angle DCB) = 180

(angle ADC) + 120 = 180

angle ADC = 180 - 120

angle ADC = 60 degrees

--------

Angles 1 and 2 combine to form angle ADC by the angle addition postulate. This is just the idea of gluing smaller angles to form larger ones.

(angle 1) + (angle 2) = angle ADC

45 + (angle 2) = 60

angle 2 = 60-45

angle 2 = 15 degrees

The answer is 15 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

new to original is the 250/100

original to new is 100/250

Answer:

-60%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the difference

250 - 100 = 150

Then divide the decrease by the original number

150/250 = 0.6

And to convert this to a percentage all you have to do is multiply it by 100

0.6(100) = 60

The percent of change is -60% which is a decrease since it's negative
