Answer:
3, 10, 1080
Step-by-step explanation:
A coefficient, is the number that is multiplying a variable, such as x. A constant is any other number, not multiplying a variable.
For part one, the number multiplying the variable x is 3, so 3 is the coefficient.
For part two, the only number not multiplying a variable is the 10, so that is the constant.
To find how many miles she drove, we first need to subtract the first 30 dollars from the final payment.
300-30=270
We than need to divide 270 by .25, because that is how much it costed per mile.
270/.25=1080
Answer:
In the first question shown, the answer is 3
In the second question shown, the answer is 10
In the third question shown, the answer is 1080 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
First question - 3 is the number before x, making it the coefficient
Second question - 10 is the only number without a variable, making it a constant
Third question - .25 * 1080 = 270. 270 + 30 = 300.

Jada's scores
Noah's scores have greater variability than Jada's scores.
The standard deviation of Noah's scores is equal to the standard deviation of Jada's scores.
The mean of Noah's scores is greater than the mean of Jada's scores.
Noah scored better than Jada on every assignment.
Using only Noah's scores, the mean is equal to the median
d
e
Answer:
The correct statements are b, c and e.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the dot plot for Noah and Jada's score in the trivia game.
From the dot plot it is quite clear that the data form a bell-shaped curved or a normal curve.
For the normal distribution:
Mean = Median = Mode
Noah's mean score = 5
Jada's mean score = 3
The standard deviation of a data set is the measure of dispersion of the observations of that data set from their mean.
On closely studying the graphs we can see that the Noah and Jada's scores are almost at a same distance from the mean, i.e. the spread of Noah's score is same as the spread of Jada's score.
So, the correct statements are:
b. The standard deviation of Noah's scores is equal to the standard deviation of Jada's scores.
c. The mean of Noah's scores is greater than the mean of Jada's scores.
e. Using only Noah's scores, the mean is equal to the median

Addition and Subtraction of like fractions
While performing the addition and subtraction of like fractions, you just have to add or subtract the numerator respectively in which the denominator is retained same.
For example :
Add : [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{1}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{1 + 3}{5} } = \frac{4}{5} [/tex]
Subtract : [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{5}{7} - \frac{4}{7} = \frac{5 - 4}{7} = \frac{3}{7} }[/tex]
So, sum of like fractions : [tex] \mathsf{ = \frac{sum \: of \: their \: number}{common \: denominator} }[/tex]
Difference of like fractions : [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{difference \: of \: their \: numerator}{common \: denominator} }[/tex]
Addition and subtraction of unlike fractions
While performing the addition and subtraction of unlike fractions, you have to express the given fractions into equivalent fractions of common denominator and add or subtract as we do with like fractions. Thus, obtained fractions should be reduced into lowest terms if there are any common on numerator and denominator.
For example:
[tex] \mathsf{add \: \frac{1}{2} \: and \: \frac{1}{3} }[/tex]
L.C.M of 2 and 3 = 6
So, ⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{1 \times 3}{2 \times 3} + \frac{1 \times 2}{3 \times 2} }[/tex]
⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{3}{6} + \frac{2}{6} }[/tex]
⇒[tex] \frac{5}{6} [/tex]
Multiplication of fractions
To multiply one fraction by another, multiply the numerators for the numerator and multiply the denominators for its denominator and reduce the fraction obtained after multiplication into lowest term.
When any number or fraction is divided by a fraction, we multiply the dividend by reciprocal of the divisor. Let's consider a multiplication of a whole number by a fraction:
[tex] \mathsf{4 \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{4 \times 3}{2} = \frac{12}{2} = 6}[/tex]
Multiplication for [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{6}{5} \: and \: \frac{25}{3} }[/tex] is done by the similar process
[tex] \mathsf{ = \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{25}{3} = 2 \times 5 \times 10}[/tex]

If the area of the rectangle shown below is given by the expression 3x2 + 7x – 6,
and the width is (x + 3), which of the following could represent the length?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x² + 7x - 6 = 3x² + 9x - 2x - 2*3
= 3x (x + 3) - 2(x +3)
= (3x - 2)(x + 3)
Area of the rectangle = 3x² + 7x - 6
length * width = 3x² + 7x - 6
length * (x + 3) = (3x -2)(x +3)
length = [tex]\frac{(3x-2)(x+3)}{(x+3)}[/tex]
length = (3x - 2)

Answer:
72°
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure given, angle D intercepts arc ABC. According to the Inscribed Angle Theorem:
m < D = ½(ABC) = ½(AB + BC)
Thus,
[tex] 56 = \frac{1}{2}(AB + 40) [/tex]
Solve for AB
[tex] 56 = \frac{AB + 40}{2} [/tex]
Multiply both sides by 2
[tex] 56*2 = \frac{AB + 40}{2}*2 [/tex]
[tex] 112 = AB + 40 [/tex]
Subtract both sides by 40
[tex] 112 - 40 = AB + 40 - 40 [/tex]
[tex] 72 = AB [/tex]

Answer:
[tex](x + 6)^2 = 49[/tex]
[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]x = -13[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]12x = 13 - x^2[/tex]
Using Completing the Square
[tex]12x = 13 - x^2[/tex] ---- Add [tex]x^2[/tex] to both sides
[tex]x^2 + 12x = 13 - x^2 + x^2[/tex]
[tex]x^2 + 12x = 13[/tex]
Divide the coefficient of x by 2; then add the square to both sides
[tex]x^2 + 12x + 6^2 = 13 + 6^2[/tex]
[tex]x^2 + 12x + 36 = 13 + 36[/tex]
[tex]x^2 + 12x + 36 = 49[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]x^2 + 6x + 6x + 36 = 49[/tex]
[tex]x(x + 6) + 6(x + 6) = 49[/tex]
[tex](x + 6)(x + 6) = 49[/tex]
[tex](x + 6)^2 = 49[/tex]
Hence, the equation is [tex](x + 6)^2 = 49[/tex]
Solving further
Take square root of both sides
[tex](x + 6) = \sqrt{49}[/tex]
[tex]x + 6 = \±7[/tex]
[tex]x = \±7- 6[/tex]
This implies that
[tex]x = 7 - 6[/tex] or [tex]x = -7 -6[/tex]
[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]x = -13[/tex]
HEnce, the solutions are [tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]x = -13[/tex]

50.For the direct variation such that when y = 2 then x = 3, find the constant of variation ( k ) and then find the value of y when x = –0.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's a direct variation
y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality
To find the value of y when x = –0.5 we must first find the relationship between the variables
When
x = 3
y = 2
2 = 3k
Divide both sides by 3
[tex]k = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]
So the formula for the variation is
[tex]y = \frac{3}{2} x[/tex]When x = - 0.5 or - 1/2
[tex]y = \frac{3}{2} ( - \frac{1}{2} )[/tex]
We have the final answer as

B. This equation is not considered to be a quadratic equation because it is not in the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
C. The left-hand side of this equation is called a difference of two squares
D. A quadratic equation in this form can always be solved using the square root property.
Which of the following steps would not be necessary when using the square root property to solve a quadratic equation?
A. After applying the square root property, solve the resulting equations.
B. Isolate the quantity being squared
C. The square root property may be applied only if the constant is positive
D. When taking the square root of both sides, use plus-minus on the square root of the constant.
Which of the following steps can be performed can be performed so that the square root property may easily be applied to 2x^2 = 16?
A. The square root property requires a quantity squared by itself on one side of the equation. The only quantity is squared by 16, so divide both sides by 2 before applying the square root property
B. The square root property requires a quantity squared by itself on one side of the equation. The only quantity squared is X, so divide both sides by 16 before applying the square root property
C. The square root property requires a quantity squared by itself on one side of the equation. The only quantity squared is X, so divide both sides by 2 before applying the square root property
Answer:
The correct option are;
1) D. A quadratic equation of this form can always be solved using the square root property
2) B. Isolate the quantity being squared
3) C. The square root property requires a quantity squared by itself on one side of the equation. The only quantity squared is X so divide both sides by 2 before applying the square root property
Step-by-step explanation:
Where the quadratic equation is of the form x² = b, the square root property method can be used to solve the equation. Due to the nature of square roots, putting a plus-minus before the square root of the constant on the right hand side of the equation after taking the square roots of both sides of the equation, two answers are produced.
It is however to first isolate the term with the squared variable, after which the square root of both sides of the equation is taken.

B. 29.98 units²
C. 29.79 units²
D. 30.73 units²
Answer:
Area of quadrilateral ABCD = 29.79 units² (Approx)
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle ABD
s = (3.48+8.66+8.6) / 2
s = 10.37
Area of triangle ABD = √10.37(10.37-8.66)(10.37-8.6)(10.37-3.48)
Area of triangle ABD = √212.4616
Area of triangle ABD = 14.5760625 unit²
Area of triangle ACD
s = (3.54+8.84+8.6) / 2
s = 10.49
Area of triangle ACD = √10.49(10.49-8.6)(10.49-8.84)(10.49-3.54)
Area of triangle ACD = √227.3558
Area of triangle ACD = 15.0783222 unit²
Area of quadrilateral ABCD = Area of triangle ABD + Area of triangle ACD
Area of quadrilateral ABCD = 14.5760625 unit² + 15.0783222 unit²
Area of quadrilateral ABCD = 29.6542units²
Area of quadrilateral ABCD = 29.79 units² (Approx)

which is a true statement about an exterior angle of a triangle
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angles are out of the triangle at all times and it adds up to make 180 with anyone of the inside angle of the triangle.
The pair also rests on the same flat/straight line and that makes a pair.
Therefore we can say that it is formed by a linear pair/group with one of the interior/inside angles of the triangle.
So, the correct answer would be D.
The true statement about an exterior angle of a triangle is C; It forms a linear pair with one of the interiior angles of the triangle .

What is the solution to this system of equations? x+3y−z=6 4x−2y+2z=−10 6x+z=−12 (−4, 0, 12) (0, −2, −12) (2, 1, −3) (−3, 5, 6)
Answer:
Solution : (− 3, 5, 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following system of equations that we have to solve for,
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x+3y-z=6\\ 4x-2y+2z=-10\\ 6x+z=-12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
To solve this problem we can start by writing the matrix with their respective coefficients --- (1)
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}1&3&-1&|&6\\ 4&-2&2&|&-10\\ 6&0&1&|&-12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
Now we can reduce this to row echelon form, receiving our solution --- (2)
[tex]\begin{pmatrix}1&3&-1&6\\ 4&-2&2&-10\\ 6&0&1&-12\end{pmatrix}[/tex] Swap row 1 and 3,
[tex]\begin{pmatrix}6&0&1&-12\\ 4&-2&2&-10\\ 1&3&-1&6\end{pmatrix}[/tex] Cancel leading coefficient in row 3,
[tex]\begin{pmatrix}6&0&1&-12\\ 0&-2&\frac{4}{3}&-2\\ 0&3&-\frac{7}{6}&8\end{pmatrix}[/tex] Swap row 2 and 3
[tex]\begin{pmatrix}6&0&1&-12\\ 0&3&-\frac{7}{6}&8\\ 0&-2&\frac{4}{3}&-2\end{pmatrix}[/tex] Cancel leading coefficient in row 3
[tex]\begin{pmatrix}6&0&1&-12\\ 0&3&-\frac{7}{6}&8\\ 0&0&\frac{5}{9}&\frac{10}{3}\end{pmatrix}[/tex]
At this point you can see that we have to cancel the leading coefficient in each row, to row echelon form. Continuing this pattern we have the following matrix,
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0&|&-3\\ 0&1&0&|&5\\ 0&0&1&|&6\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
As you can see, x = - 3, y = 5, and z = 6, giving us a solution of (− 3, 5, 6). This is the fourth option.
