Bryce tried to solve an equation step by step. \qquad\begin{aligned} \dfrac83&=3\left(c+\dfrac53\right)\\\\ \\ \dfrac83&=3c+\dfrac53&\green{\text{Step } 1}\\\\ \\ 1&=3c&\blue{\text{Step } 2}\\\\ \\ \dfrac13&=c&\purple{\text{Step } 3}\\\\ \end{aligned}

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Bryce is wrong in step 1 because he did not distribute 3 over 5/3

Explanation

Given the steps taken by bryce as shown, we are to find where he made an error

[tex]\qquad\begin{aligned} \dfrac83&=3\left(c+\dfrac53\right)\\\\ \\ \dfrac83&=3c+\dfrac53&\green{\text{Step } 1}\\\\ \\ 1&=3c&\blue{\text{Step } 2}\\\\ \\ \dfrac13&=c&\purple{\text{Step } 3}\\\\ \end{aligned}[/tex]

Given the expression;

[tex]\dfrac83&=3\left(c+\dfrac53\right)\\\\ \\[/tex]

Step 1:Expand the bracket using the distributive law;

8/3 = 3c + 3(5/3)

Simplify

8/3 = 3c + 15/3

Step 2: Subtract 15/3 from both sides

8/3 - 15/3 = 3c+15/3-15/3

(8-15)/3 = 3c

-7/3 = 3c

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 1/3

-7/3 * 1/3 = 3c * 1/3

-7/9 = c

Swap

c = -7/9

From the calculation, we can see that Bryce is wrong in step 1 because he did not distribute 3 over 5/3 thereby making his solution incorrect

An angle measures 46° more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answers

Answer:

67 degree

113 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles are angles that measure up to 180 degrees. For example, if one angle measures 60 degree, the other angle would measure (180 - 60) 120 degrees

Let x represent the smaller angle

The bigger angle = x + 46

We know that both the smaller and the bigger angle would add up to 180, thus this equation can be written :

x + 46 + x = 180

2x + 46 = 180

Collect like terms

2x = 180 - 46

2x = 134

Divide both sides by 2

x = 67 degrees

the bigger angle = 67 + 46 = 113 degree

How do I solve for x?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 98

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees.

The sum of all the angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. Write down the difference you found when subtracting the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. This is the value of X.

62+20=82

180-82=98

98+20+62=180

a) − 5 ( 6 n + 6 ) ≤ 30
b) 8 v − 4 ( v − 8 ) > 8

Answers

Answer:

a)  n  ≥ -2

b)  v > -6

Step-by-step explanation:

You did not state what you would like us to do with these. I will assume simplify.

a)

− 5 ( 6 n + 6 ) ≤ 30 first, distribute -5

-30 n + -30  ≤ 30 now, add 30 to both sides so we may isolate n our variable

-30 n  ≤ 60 now, divide -30 on both sides so we may isolate n completely. When we do this, the sign changes direction

n  ≥ -2

b)

8 v − 4 ( v − 8 ) > 8 first, distribute -4 (note: two negatives equal a positive)

8 v - 4v + 32  > 8 now, simplify

4v + 32  > 8 now, subtract 32 from both sides

4v > -24 now, divide both sides by 4 to isolate v

4v > -24

v > -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The five-number summary is a descriptive statistic that provides information about a set of observations. It consists of the following statistics:

1. Minimum (Min) - the smallest observation

2. Maximum (Max) - the largest observation

3. Median M - the middle term

4. First Quartile Q1 - the middle term of values below the median

5. Third Quartile Q3 - the middle term of values above the median

Arrange the terms in ascending order.

Multiple Choice: A prism and a pyramid have identical bases and heights. The volume of the prism is: Twice as large as the pyramid's volume One third as large as the pyramids's volume Three times as large as the pyramid's volume Equal to the pyramid's volume

Answers

Answer:

Three times as large as the pyramid's volume

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of prism be Vp

Let the Volume of pyramid be Vy

Vp = Base Area * Height .... 1

Vy = Base * Height/3 ....2

From 2;

Vp = BH/3

BH = 3Vy

Since Vp = BH, then;

Vp = 3Vy

This shows that the volume of prism is three times as large as pyramids volume

Jen uses 8.6 gallons of gasoline to drive 164.7 miles. Which is the best estimate for the number of miles per gallon of gasoline her vehicle gets?

Answers

Answer:

19.15 miles/gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Gasoline used = 8.6 gallons

Distance driven = 164.7 miles

Number of miles per gallon = Distance driven / Gasoline used

= 164.7 miles / 8.6 gallons

= 19.151162790697 miles/gallon

Approximately 19.15 miles/gallon

Number of miles per gallon of gasoline her vehicle gets is 19.15 miles/gallon

There is a bag filled with 3 blue and 5 red marbles.
A marble is taken at random from the bag, the colour is noted and then it is replaced.
Another marble is taken at random.
What is the probability of getting 2 reds?

Answers

Answer: The probability of getting two red marbles is P = 0.141

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in the bag there are 3 blue marbles and 5 red marbles, then there is a total of 8 marbles in the bag.

The probability of taking at random a red marble is equal to the quotient between the number of red marbles and the total number of marbles, this is:

p = 3/8

Suppose we got a red marble:

Now we replace the red marble we took, so in the bag there are again 3 red marbles and 8 total marbles, then the probability of getting another red marble is again:

q = 3/8

The joint probability (this is, the probability of both events happening) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, with gives us:

P = p*q = (3/8)*(3/8) = 9/64 = 0.141

next we want to find the scale factor of the rectangles. to do that we divide 4 from 9

9/4=2.25

next we want to find what side st is equal too

to do that we multiply 3 by 2.25

3x2.25=6.75

finally we want to find the perimeter and to do that we do 2(6.75)+2(9)

2(6.75)+2(9)=31.5 so the perimeter of rectangle RSTU is 31.5
