Answer:
He did not distribute the negative sign when he subtracted.
Step-by-step explanation:
x-(x+1) is equal to a -1. He did not distribute the negative.
In third step, he did not distribute the negative sign when he subtracted. Then the correct option is C.
What is Algebra?Algebra is the study of graphic formulas, while logic is the interpretation among those signs.
Mr. Knotts found the difference of the following expression.
The expression is given below.
[tex]\rm \rightarrow \dfrac{x}{x^2-1} - \dfrac{1}{x -1}[/tex]
Then the first step of the expression will be
[tex]\rm \rightarrow \dfrac{x}{(x+1)(x-1)} - \dfrac{1}{x -1}[/tex]
The second step of the expression will be
[tex]\rm \rightarrow \dfrac{x}{(x+1)(x-1)} - \dfrac{1(x+1)}{(x+1)(x -1)}[/tex]
The third step of the expression will be
[tex]\rm \rightarrow \dfrac{x - (x +1)}{(x+1)(x-1)}\\\\\rm \rightarrow \dfrac{x - x -1}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]
In third step, he did not distribute the negative sign when he subtracted.
Then the correct option is C.

help help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
The first option, the mayor will lose by a large percentage.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the numbers, You can see that the two best answers which are excellent and satisfactory are low, and in total equal 28.
Being compared to the lower ratings which are needs improvement and unsatisfactory are high, and in total equal 52.
Seeing this, this shows that the mayor will lose the election the with more than half of the people voting for someone else.
All the other options excluding the first one, say that he will win by a close call, a big percent, or a close call again.
which just leaves the first option saying that he will lose by large percent, which is true.

Answer:
A. Trinomial
Step-by-step explanation:
It says it's a polynomial and that based on the number of terms. So right then you can cancel out cubic and quadratic because they aren't polynomials. Also:
Cubic is just a variable with the exponent of 3. Examples:
[tex]x^3,y^3,z^3[/tex]
Binomial is a polynomial with 2 terms. Examples:
[tex]5x+3; 6x+2; x+7[/tex]
A quadratic has a division sign.
(x+2)(x-3)(x+5) is identical to x^(3)+ax^(2)-11x+b
Find the value of a and the value of b
Answer:
a = 4 and b = - 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side and compare like terms on both sides, that is
(x + 2)(x - 3)(x + 5) ← expand the first pair of factors using FOIL
= (x² - x - 6)(x + 5) ← distribute
= x³ + 5x² - x² - 5x - 6x - 30 ← collect like terms
= x³ + 4x² - 11x - 30
Compare like terms with x³ +ax² - 11x + b
4x² and ax² ⇒ a = 4
+ b and - 30 ⇒ b = - 30
The requried simplified values of a and b are given as 4 and -30 respectively.
What is simplification?The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function or expression simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.
here,
Given expression,
(x+2)(x-3)(x+5) = x³+ax²-11x+b
(x + 2)[x² +2x -15 ] = x³+ax²-11x+b
x³ +4x² -11x - 30 = x³+ax²-11x+b
Comparing both sides,
a = 4 and b = -30
Thus, the requried simplified value of a and b are given as 4 and -30 respectively.

A triangle has a base of x 1/2 m and a height of x 3/4 m. if the area of the triangle is 16 m^2, what are the base and the height of the triangle
Answer:
base = 6.4m
height = 5m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given area = 16m^2
3/4 -1/2 = 1/4 into something x 0.25 its size then add
We see that 2.5 is 10 multiplied. not relevant unless doing algebra
We also see that 0.5 is 0.25 x 2 not relevant unless doing algebra
We start with 5
16/5 = 3.2
if 5 is the height then 3.2 x 2 must be the base.
As we half base to find area so we change this value and reverse the area 1/2 above. 3.2 x 2 = 6.4m base. and 5m height stays as it is.
If we did algebra
Then 1/2 = 0.5 = 4.5
3/4 = 0.75 = 3.75
and we would have to plug in 1 as x
3 as x to find one value as 5.5 (-1) = 4.5
We find 3.75 as 5 (-1 )- 1/4 = 3.75
3.75 x 4.5 = 16.875m^2
and is closest fit using 1/4, 1/2 and -1.
But 3.2 x 5 is a better multiplication as 3 1/5 and finds 16 exact.

There were 23 students running in a race. How many different arrangements of first, second, and third place are possible?
Answer:
10626 different arrangements
Step-by-step explanation:
As we have a total of 23 students and we want to form groups of 3, where the order of the 3 students matters, we can solve this problem using a permutation of 23 choose 3.
The formula for a permutation of n choose p is:
P(n,p) = n! / (n-p)!
So, using n = 23 and p = 3, we have:
P(23,3) = 23! / (23-3)! = 23! / 20! = 23 * 22 * 21 = 10626
So we have a total of 10626 different arrangements of first, second and third place.

A monkey is swinging from a tree. On each swing, she travels along an arc that is
75%, percent as long as the previous swing's arc. The total length of the arcs from her first 4 swings is 175m.How long was the monkey's 1st swing?
Round your final answer to the nearest meter.
Answer:
Total length of the first swing=64 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The total length of all four swings can be expressed as; Total length of all 4 swings=Length of first swing+length of second swing+length of third swing+length of fourth swing
where;
Total length of all 4 swings=175 m
Length of first swing=x
Length of second swing=75% of length of first swing=(75/100)×x=0.75 x
Length of third swing=75% of length of second swing
Length of third swing=(75/100)×0.75 x=0.5625 x
Length of fourth swing=75% of length of third swing
Length of fourth swing=(75/100)×0.5625 x=0.421875 x
replacing;
Total length of all 4 swings
175=x+0.75 x+0.5625 x+0.421875 x
2.734375 x=175
x=175/2.734375
x=64
Total length of the first swing=x=64 m

Which of the points (s, t) is inside the shaded region of the set of inequalities shown below?
s<24 - 0.66t
s>12 - t
s< 30 - t
s>0
t>0
O A. (1,8)
O B. (-9,21)
O C. (9,4)
O D. (30, 10)
Answer:
Only point C. (9,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
To check if the points are inside the region of the inequalities, we just need to use the values of the point in each inequation, and if the point satisfy all inequations, the point is inside the region.
point A = (1,8): s = 1 and t = 8
first inequation: s<24 - 0.66t
1 < 24 - 0.66*8
1 < 18.72 (true)
second inequation: s>12 - t
1 > 12 - 8
1 > 4 (false)
So point A is not inside the region.
point B = (-9,21): s = -9 and t = 21
As we can see from the fourth inequation, the s value needs to be greater than 0, and point B has s negative, so point B is not inside the region.
point C = (9,4): s = 9 and t = 4
first inequation: s<24 - 0.66t
9 < 24 - 0.66*4
9 < 21.36 (true)
second inequation: s>12 - t
9 > 12 - 4
9 > 8 (true)
third inequation: s< 30 - t
9 < 30 - 4
9 < 26 (true)
fourth inequation: s>0
9 > 0 (true)
fifth inequation: t>0
4 > 0 (true)
As all conditions are true, point C is inside the region.
point D = (30,10): s = 30 and t = 10
first inequation: s<24 - 0.66t
30 < 24 - 0.66*10
30 < 17.4 (false)
So point D is not inside the region.

Median
Mode
Range
None of the above
Answer:
Median
Explanation:
The median is the middle number. This answer fits best with the question asked.
The mode is the number that occurs the most. This number doesn't really have a correlation to the middle of this data.
The range is just how many numbers the data spans across. It has no relation to the middle of the data.

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the area of the base is 19.6\text{ cm}^219.6 cm 2 and the height of the pyramid is 12.7\text{ cm}12.7 cm. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter.
Answer:
V = 83.0 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of the squared pyramid you use the following formula:
[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}Bh[/tex] ( 1 )
B: base of the pyramid = 19.6 cm^2
h: height of the pyramid = 12.7 cm
you replace the values of B and h in the equation ( 1 ):
[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}Bh=\frac{1}{3}(19.6cm^2)(12.7cm)\\\\V=82.97cm^3\approx 83.0cm^3[/tex]
hence, the volume of the pyramid is 83.0 cm^3
