Sherry uses the steps below to solve the equation x + (negative 8) = 3 x + 6.

Step 1 Add 1 negative x-tile to both sides and create zero pairs
Step 2 Add 8 positive unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs.
Step 3 Divide the 14 unit tiles evenly among the 2 x-tiles.
Step 4 The solution is x = 7

What is Sherry’s error?
In step 1, she should have added 3 negative x-tiles to both sides.
In step 2, she should have added 6 negative unit tiles to both sides.
In step 3, she did not divide the tiles evenly.
In step 4, she should have found the solution x = negative 1.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation :

x + (negative 8) = 3 x + 6.

or

x+(-8) = 3x+6

Step 1.

Add (-3x) to both sides of the equation.

x+(-8) + (-3x) = 3x+6 +(-3x)

x-8 = 3x +6

Step 2.

Add 8 positive unit tiles to both sides and create zero pairs.

x-8+8 = 3x +6 +8

x = 3x +14

Step 3.

x-3x = 14

-2x = 14

x = -7

Hence, step 1 is incorrect as she should have added 3 negative x-tiles to both sides.

1. Another line k is perpendicular to line j and passes through
The equation for line j can be written as y =1/2x-1
the point (6, -6). Choose the equation for line k.

Answers

Answer:

The equation for line k is [tex]y = -2x + 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which m is the slope.

When two lines are perpendicular, the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

The equation for line j can be written as y =1/2x-1

Since k is perpendicular to j, and the slope of j is 1/2, the slope of k is:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}m = -1[/tex]

[tex]m = -2[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -2x + b[/tex]

It passes through the point (6,-6).

This means that when [tex]x = 6, y = -6[/tex]. So

[tex]y = -2x + b[/tex]

[tex]-6 = -2(6) + b[/tex]

[tex]b = 6[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -2x + 6[/tex]

THe first one is infinitely many solutions , you see y-2x=7 is the same as y=2x+7 which means they will intersect on every point

y-2x=7, simply add 2x to both sides

y=2x+7

The second one has no solution, if you solve for y on each side, you will find that the lines are parallel (slope is the same) and will never intersect.

THe third one has one solution

A rectangle has a perimeter of 50 centimeters. If the width of the rectangle is 10 centimeters, what is its length?​

Answers

Answer:

15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2(L + W), where L is length of the rectangle and W is the width.

If we plug in 10 for W, we get this:

2L + 2(10) = 50 <-- the perimeter

2L + 20 = 50

2L = 30

Answer:

The other endpoint is (-1, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know is one endpoint is at (5, -9). The midpoint is at (2, -4).

So, to find the slope, find (yB - yA)/(xB - xA)

(-4 -(-9))/(2 - 5)

(-4 + 9)/(2 - 5)

5/-3

The slope is -5/3.

Knowing this, subtract 3 from the midpoint's x, and add 5 to the midpoint's y.

((2 - 3), (-4 + 5))

The other endpoint is at (-1, 1).

Eric is a statistician-Viking. He walks into a tavern and makes three statements about the continuity correction. Which are true?
I. You can find single probabilities (such as x - 4) using the normal approximation to the binomial. Do this by finding the probability for the range from.5 below to .5 above the number. (For x 4 you'd find 3.5x 4.5.)
Il. Using the normal approximation, x 4 is the same as x4. Using the exact binomial, x <4 is not the same as x - 4
IlI. The continuity correction removes some of the error introduced when modeling a discrete distribution with a continuous one. The correction increases accuracy by acting as though a number occupies the interval from.5 below it to.5 above it.

Pls help

Answers

Given:

Consider the given function is [tex]f(x)=-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)[/tex].

To find:

The remaining zero and y-coordinate of y-intercept.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]f(x)=-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)[/tex]

For zeros, [tex]f(x)=0[/tex].

[tex]-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)=0[/tex]

[tex](x+1)(x-3)(x+2)=0[/tex]

[tex](x+1)=0,(x-3)=0,(x+2)=0[/tex]

[tex]x=-1,x=3,x=-2[/tex]

So, three zeros of given function are -1, 3 and -2.

Putting x=0 in the given function, we get

[tex]f(0)=-(0+1)(0-3)(0+2)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=-(1)(-3)(2)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=-(-6)[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=6[/tex]

So, the y-coordinate of y-intercept of the given function is 6. It means the y-intercept is at point (0,6).

Therefore, the zeros of the function [tex]f(x)=-(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)[/tex] are –1, 3, and -2 and the y-intercept of the function is located at (0,6).

Sharon bought 6 new folders for $1.15 each and 15 pens that were priced at 5 for $4.75. What is the total amount she spent?

Answers

Answer:

$21.15

Step-by-step explanation:

6 x 1.15 = 6.9 (because we're working with money, we'll add a zero at the end for the ones place) = 6.90

15/5 = 3 then 3 x 4.75= 14.25

14.25 + 6.90 = 21.15

Hope this helped <3

Answer:

$21.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Folder Amount: $1.15 • 6 = $6.90

Total Pen Amount: $4.75 • 3* = $14.25

*She bought 15 pens. The pens were 5 pens for $4.75. 15÷5=3*

$14.25 + $6.90 = $21.15

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8).
Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal
line.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8) is [tex]\mathbf{y=-8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8).

We need to write answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal  line.

The general equation of point-slope form is: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

where m is slope of the line.

To find the slope, we can use formula: [tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have [tex]x_1=7,y_1=-8,x_2=2, y_2=-8[/tex]

Putting values and finding slope:

[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-8-(-8)}{2-7}\\Slope=\frac{-8+8}{-5}\\Slope=\frac{0}{-5}\\Slope=0[/tex]

So, we find the slope : m = 0

Now, using the point (7,-8) and slope m =0, the required equation is:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-(-8)=0(x-7)\\y+8=0\\y=-8[/tex]

So, the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8) is [tex]\mathbf{y=-8}[/tex]
