¡Hello :D!

To solve the similar terms we must eliminate the parentheses and then put the parentheses back but this time it would be like this: (4 x + x) + ( 2 - 2)

Once we have done that we must restore the ones on the right side which gives us the result of 1 then as we see that there is + in the Parenthesis and another + outside the Parenthesis we do not care + since we are using the law of signs .

We proceed to solve:

[tex]\: \: \: \: \: \: \bold \: \bold \: \bold \: ( \bf4x+2)+(x-2)[/tex]

[tex]\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bf \bold4x + 2 + x - 2[/tex]

So the result is 5x

I hope I've helped XD

Reason:

A rational number is a fraction of any two integers, as long as the denominator is nonzero. This applies to the first two answer choices.

Choices C and D are undefined because of the 0 in the denominator. You cannot divide by zero. This rules out the last two choices.

8 halls would be required to accommodate 520 people in the hall.

As we know that a hall can accommodate 65 people.

To determine the number of hall required for 520 people,

first we need to find that how many halls would be required for one person,

So, we will divide the 1 by 6 to find :

The number of one person accommodate = 1/65 Hall

Then, 520 people required to accommodate = 1/65 × 520

                                                                      = 8 Halls.

[Accommodate: to have enough space for somebody/something, especially for a certain number of people]

Answer: 0.3574 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

22647 inches = 0.3574 miles

7 in 7.8 is 100 times greater than 7 in 23.97.

As the name suggests place value is where the digit is being placed in decimal number system.

We can multiply both these numbers by 100 in that way we'll get rid of the decimal and it doesn't effect our answer.

Now 7.8 and 23.97 multiplied by 100 becomes 780 and 2397.

We can observe that 7 in 780 is in hundreds place and 7 in 2397 is in ones place.

∴ If we divide (100/1) = 100.

So, it is 100 times greater.

Answer:

No solution.

Explanation:

Given expression:

when x = 3, y = 4

Substitute these values inside expression:

6(3) + 4(4) = 36

18 + 16 = 36

34 = 36

As the statement "34 = 36" not true. The solution is false or no solution.

Answer:

The given values are wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information,

→ x = 3

→ y = 4

Solving the given equation,

→ 6x + 4y = 36

→ (6 × 3) + (4 × 4) = 36

→ 18 + 16 = 36

→ 34 ≠ 36

Hence, there is no solution.

Inequality compares two values by if they are less than or greater than each other.

According to the given question Mars has a maximum temperature of -7°c at the equator and a minimum temperature of -133°c at the winter pole.

We have to write an inequality that describes the possible temperatures on Mars.

Let us denote all the possible range of temperatures by T,

∴ T is less or equal to the maximum temperature and T is greater than or equal to the minimum temperature.

The function is a good model for the data, capacity U. S. nuclear power plants were working in 2014 is 115% and the year when nuclear power plant working with full capacity is 2008.

Given that the table which shows the capacities at which U.S. nuclear power plants are working and a model of the situation is f(t)=0.027t²+0.216t+53.296.

The Scatter plot for our function and points is shown in attached image and the point are highly related to the curve .

So the function is good model.

The year 2014 means t=2014-1970=44

So to get the population,put t=44 in equation

f(t)=0.027(44)²+0.216(44)+53.296

f(t)=0.027(1936)+0.216(44)+53.296

f(t)=52.272+9.504+53.296

f(t)=115.072

And on rounding it we get 115%.

Now, to find year at which capacity is 100% ,put f(t)=100 and solve for t

f(t)=0.027t²+0.216t+53.296=100

0.027t²+0.216t+53.296=100

0.027t²+0.216t+53.296-100=0

0.027t²+0.216t-46.704=0

Now, we will solve this using quadratic formula for f(x) =ax²+bx+c=0

[tex]\begin{aligned}x&=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\end[/tex]

for our function a= 0.027 , b=0.216 ,c=-46.704 substitute this value and we get

[tex]\begin{aligned}t&=\frac{-0.216\pm \sqrt{(0.216)^2-4\times 0.027\times (-46.704)}}{2\times 0.027}\\ &=\frac{-0.216\pm \sqrt{0.046656+5.044032}}{0.054}\\ &=\frac{-0.216\pm \sqrt{5.090688}}{0.054}\\ &=\frac{-0.216\pm 2.256}{0.54}\\ &=37.78, -45.78\end[/tex]

As we all know time cannot be negative so t=-45.78 will be rejected.

So, t=37.78=38

Now, we will find the corresponding year

1970+38=2008

Hence, from the given table the function is a good model for the data, capacity U. S. nuclear power plants were working in 2014 is 115% and the year when nuclear power plant working with full capacity is 2008.

$3,708.33 is withheld monthly for state taxes.

Some states have a graduated income tax that involves a different tax rate for each of several levels of income. The tax rate increases as income increases.

Tax Withheld per Pay Period = Annual Tax Withheld/ Number of Pay Periods per Year

Here, we are given that Kerry McCarthy is a news traffic reporter with an annual gross pay of $44,500.

Thus, the Annual Tax Withheld = $44,500.

He is paid on a monthly basis ⇒ Number of Pay Periods per Year = 12

Hence, we get-

Tax Withheld per Pay Period = 44,500/ 12

= 3,708.33

The average rate of change of the function from x == -4 to x = 3 is calculated as: -26.

The formula for determining the average rate of change across a given interval of a function is expressed as:

Average rate of change = g(b) - g(a)/b - a.

Given the function, g(x) = -2x³ + 5 to find the average rate of change from x = -4 to x = 3, do the following:

a = -4

g(a) = g(-4) = -2(-4)³ + 5 = -2(-64) + 5 = 128 + 5 = 133

b = 3

g(b) = g(3) = -2(3)³ + 5 = -2(27) + 5 = -54 + 5 = -49

Substitute the values into g(b) - g(a)/b - a:

Average rate of change = (-49 - 133)/(3 - (-4))

Average rate of change = -182/7

Average rate of change = -26

Thus, the average rate of change of the function from x == -4 to x = 3 is calculated as: -26.

The baseball coach bought each pizza at an approximate cost of $ 10 or an exact cost of $ 10.75.

In this problem we know that a baseball coach spends a total of $ 118.25 on buying 11 pizzas. First, we need to estimate the amount of money spent per each pizza bought, which is found by means of multiplication tables and the supposition of truncation, that is, finding the maximum integer less than or equal to the real total cost.

By direct inspection we find that 10 times the 11 pizzas is equal to $ 110, which is the maximum integer less than or equal to the real total cost. Then, we estimate a cost of $ 10 per each pizza bought. Second, the exact unit cost is found by dividing the total by the number of pizzas:

c = $ 118.25 / 11

c = $ 10.75
