give an example to show that subtraction does not follow the associative rule

Answers

Answer 1

(6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

6 - (2 - 1) = 6 - 1 = 5

The associative rule doesn't work for subtraction because you get different results when you move the parentheses.

An environmental study of a certain community suggests that t years from now, the average level of carbon monoxide in the air will be Q(t)=0.05t^2 + 0.1t + 3.4 parts per million. By approximately how much will the carbon monoxide lvel change during the coming 6 months?

Answers

Answer:

3.4625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

Q(t)=0.05t^2 + 0.1t + 3.4 parts per million

Where t = time in years

By approximately how much will the carbon monoxide lvel change during the coming 6 months?

t = 6 months = 6/12 = 0.5 year

Q(0.5) = 0.05(0.5)^2 + 0.1(0.5) + 3.4 parts per million

Q(0.5) = 0.05(0.25) + 0.05 + 3.4

Q(0.5) = 0.0125 + 0.05 + 3.4

Q = 3.4625

Carbon monoxide level will change by approximately 3.4625 parts per million in 6 months

(5x+2)/8=x/6 what value will make it true??

Answers

X should equal -6/11 if I read the equation right

Answer:

-6/11 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use cross products to solve

(5x+2)/8=x/6

6 ( 5x+2) = 8x

Distribute

30x + 12 = 8x

Subtract 30x from each side

30x -30x +12 = 8x - 30x

12 = -22x

Divide each side by -22

12/-22 = -22x/-22

-6/11 =x

reflection over the x-axis



reflection over the y-axis

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

Reflection over the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

An even function is a function that satisfies the following function equation;

f(x) = f(-x)

Therefore, for an even function, we have;

f(x) - f(-x) = 0

Which gives that the values of f(x) of the even function is the same upon reflection about the y-axis whereby the values of x changes from x to -x

Therefore, the symmetry of an even function is about the y-axis

However, an odd function is a function that satisfies the following function equation;

f(-x) = -f(x)

Therefore, reflection across the y-axis will result in an inversion of the odd function such that the odd function is not symmetrical about the y-axis as we have;

f(-x) = -f(x) ≠ f(x) which simplifies to f(x) ≠ f(-x).

Sita Rahim drove due north for 3 hours at 46 miles per hour. From the
same spot, Yasmina Young drove due south for 2 hours at 43 miles per
hour. How far apart were they after their trip?

Answers

Answer:

224 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would do is take the 3 hours times the 46 mph to get 138 miles.

3*46=138

Next, multiply the 2 hours by the 43 mph to get 86 miles.

2*43=86

Lastly, you're going to add the two.

138+86=224 miles.

Step by step explanation:

Which line is perpendicular to y=7x-3 if the perpendicular line passes through the point (7, 7)? a) y=-7x-1 b) y=-7x+8 c) y=-1/7x+8 d) y=-1/7x+1

Answers

Perpendicular lines have an opposite reciprocal slope, therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is:

-1/7

So far, y = -1/7x + b. Now we need to plug in (7, 7) into x and y for our equation.

7 = -1/7(7) + b

Simplify the right side

7 = -1 + b

Add 1 to both sides

8 = b

The equation of the perpendicular line is:

y = -1/7x + 8
