Maricella solves for x in the equation 4 x minus 2 (3 x minus 4) + 4 = negative x + 3 (x + 1) + 1. She begins by adding –4 + 4 on the left side of the equation and 1 + 1 on the right side of the equation. Which best explains why Maricella’s strategy is incorrect?

BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER! 20 POINTS!!Maricella Solves For X In The Equation 4 X Minus 2 (3 X

Answers

Answer 1

The statement that best explains why Maricella's strategy is incorrect based on the distribution property and order of operation is option A.

Recall:

When given an equation involving brackets, the distribution property must be applied first which involves multiplying every term in a bracket by the term outside the bracket.

In the equation given, to solve for x, Maricella needs to apply the distribution property by using -2 to multiply each term in (3x - 4) and using +3 to multiply every term in (x + 1).

The next step will now be addition and subtraction of like terms.

Therefore, the statement that best explains why Maricella's strategy is incorrect based on the distribution property and order of operation is option A.

Hey i need help finding the orthocenter for the following points, please show the steps you used. thanks

(-3, 0.5)
(3,3)
(2,-1)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (81/43, -31/43) ≈ (1.884, -0.7209)

Step-by-step explanation:

The orthocenter is the intersection point of the altitudes of the triangle. Since this is not a right triangle, you need to find the equations of the altitude lines, then find where those intersect.

If we call the points A, B, C in the order given, the attached figure shows the altitude lines from B perpendicular to AC, and from C perpendicular to AB.

We can find the equation of the perpendicular line using the form ...

  ∆x·x +∆y·y = c

where ∆x and ∆y are the differences in coordinates between the points on the "side" and the value of constant 'c' is determined by evaluating the expression using x and y as the coordinates of the opposite vertex.

__

For line AC, we have ...

  (∆x, ∆y) = C - A = (2, -1) -(-3, 0.5) = (2+3, -1-0.5) = (5, -1.5)

Then the equation of the first altitude line is ...

  5x -1.5y = 6(3) -1.5(3) = 10.5

Multiplying by 2 puts this in standard form:

  10x -3y = 21

__

For line AB, we have ...

  (∆x, ∆y) = B - A = (3, 3) -(-3, 0.5) = (3+3, 3-0.5) = (6, 2.5)

Then the equation of the second altitude line is ...

  6x +2.5y = 6(2) +2.5(-1) = 9.5

Multiplying by 2 puts this in standard form:

  12x +5y = 19

__

Then the orthocenter is the solution to the system of equations ...

  10x -3y -21 = 0

  12x +5y -19 = 0

This set of equations can be solved a number of ways. One is the "cross-multiplication" method.

  1/(10·5 -12·(-3)) = x/(-3·(-19) -5·(-21)) = y/(-21(12) -(-19)(10))

  x = 162/86 = 81/43

  y = -62/86 = -31/43

The orthocenter is (81/43, -31/43) ≈ (1.884, -0.7209).

Additional comment

The "cross multiply method" is based on cross products when the equations  are written in standard form:

  ax +by +c = 0

  dx +ey +g = 0

Usually, the coefficients are written in two rows of four, with the first column repeated at the end:

  a  b  c  a

  d  e  g  d

Then cross products are formed, where diagonal down is positive and diagonal up is subtracted from that:

  p1 = (ae -db), p2 = (bg -ec), p3 = (cd -ga)

These give the solution to the equations when put in the form ...

  1/p1 = x/p2 = y/p3   ⇒   x = p2/p1   and   y = p3/p1

If you look at videos of this "cross multiply method," they will put the 1/p1 at the end of the string of equalities, and they will use the coefficients in the order starting with b instead of a. I find the arrangement here easier to remember, so less likely to get confused.

Further comment

You can, of course, find the slopes of the lines, and their opposite reciprocals, then use a point-slope form or some other method for writing the equations of the altitude lines. The solution to the equations can proceed by substitution or elimination. No doubt these methods are somewhat familiar. The method used here tries to get to the answer much more quickly with a lot less writing. (Unfortunately, it takes a bit of writing to explain it all.)

Answer:

#1 - First option: y + 7 =  [tex]\frac{-1}{4}[/tex](x -4)

#2 - First option: y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

#1

Given: (x1,y1) = (4,-7) and m = [tex]\frac{-1}{4}[/tex];

To find the point slope form which is

y - y1 = m(x - x1); substitute (x1,y1) and m

y - (-7) = [tex]\frac{-1}{4}[/tex](x -4)

y + 7 =  [tex]\frac{-1}{4}[/tex](x -4)

#2

Given: points (x1,y1) = (0, -5) and (x2,y2)=(4,3)

To find the slope we use

m = [tex]\frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{(3-(-5))}{(4-0)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{4}[/tex] = 2

Now pick a number to find b

y = mx + b

y1 = mx1 + b

-5 = 2(0) + b

b = -5

now plug into y = mx + b; which is

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

So, the plan

monthly =40 + 1.50x

Then, 1 month= 40 + 6

1 month= 46

Write an equation in point slope form for the line that passes through each point with the given slope. (you can press on the photo to see more clear)

Answers

Answer:

Question 1: Option C: y -6 = 8(x+4) is the correct answer.

Question 2: Option B: y-1=0 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1(In Picture):

Given point is: (-4,6) and

Slope: m = 8

The point-slope form of equation of a line is given by:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of the point from which the line passes. Putting (-4,6) in the equation and slope

[tex]y -6 = 8(x+4)[/tex]

Hence,

Option C: y -6 = 8(x+4) is the correct answer.

Question 2:

Given point is: (3,1) and

Slope: m = 0

The point-slope form of equation of a line is given by:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of the point from which the line passes. Putting (-4,6) in the equation and slope

[tex]y -1 = 0(x-3)\\y-1 = 0[/tex]

Hence,

Option B: y-1=0 is the correct answer.

Carri is trying to run a certain number of miles by the end of this month. If Carrie is 55% of the way to achieving her goal and she has already run 11 miles, how many miles is she trying to run by the end of this month

Answers

Answer:

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = total number of miles she wish to run the end of this month

If Carrie is 55% of the way to achieving her goal and she has already run 11 miles

55% of her total miles = 11 miles

55% of x = 11 miles

55/100 * x = 11 miles

0.55x = 11

Divide both sides by 0.55

x = 11 / 0.55

= 20

x = 20 miles

x = total number of miles she wish to run the end of this month = 20 miles

She is trying to run 20 miles by the end of this month

Would $3.99$ million flies or $47,000,000$ ants have a greater mass? Approximately how much greater, in grams, would the greater mass be?

Answers

Answer:

Ants and by roughly 118,615,000mg greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to a quick online search, a regular house fly weighs on average 11.5mg while an ant weighs on average 3.5mg. Now that we have the average weight of each we can multiply this number by the quantity of each to find the approximate total weight.

Flies: 3,990,000 * 11.5mg = 45,885,000mg

Ants: 47,000,000 * 3.5mg = 164,500,000mg

Therefore, based on this calculation we can clearly see that the 47 million ants will have a greater mass and this mass would be approximately

164,500,000 - 45,885,000= 118,615,000mg greater

The ants and by roughly 118,615,000mg greater.

We have given that,$3.99$ million flies or $47,000,000$ ants have a greater mass

What is the approximate total weight?

A regular house fly weighs on average weighs on 11.5mg while an ant weighs on average 3.5mg. Now that we have the average weight of each we can multiply this number by the quantity of each to find the approximate total weight.

Therfore we can write it as,

Flies: 3,990,000 × 11.5mg = 45,885,000mg

Therefore we get the files mass 45885000mg

For Ants,

47,000,000 * 3.5mg = 164,500,000mg

Therefore, based on this calculation we  clear that the 47 million ants will have a greater mass and this mass would be approximately

164,500,000 - 45,885,000= 118,615,000mg greater
