Sophia's expression is incorrect because she did not multiply 2 by -1 correctly.

Ursula's expression is incorrect because she cannot simplify 2-4x.

A correct equivalent expression is 6-2+4x.

What can I say? I got this correct on ttm.

Hope you have a great day~

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - (2 - 4x)

sophia : 6 + 2 + 4x

sophia's expression is incorrect because she didn't distribute the negative sign thru the parenthesis correctly.

ursula : 6 - (-2x)

ursula's expression is incorrect because....well....I dont know how she got what she got...she possibly subtracted 2 from - 4x and got -2x

a correct equivalent expression is : 6 - 2 + 4x or 4 + 4x

The table shows the gallons of water in a pool over time.
Luda [366]

Answer:

- 6 gallons per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the function that models the quantities of water, Q (in gallons) in a pool over time, t (in minutes), is  

Q = a + bt ........... (1)

Now, Q(t = 0) is given to be 50 gallons.

So, a = 50 and b denotes the rate at which the quantity of water in the pool is decreasing and it is given by the slope of equation (1).

Now, two points on the graph are (0,50) and (1,44).

So, the slope = b = \frac{50 - 44}{0 - 1} = - 6 gallons per minute.

Therefore, the equation of this situation is given by Q = 50 - 6t, where the slope is equal to - 6 gallons per minute. (Answer)

Sonam sold two cars for nu. 55055 each. one has gained him 16% while the other made him loss 16%. how much does he loss or gain
statuscvo [17]

Answer: Total Loss or Gain = $0

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Gain:   $55,055 (1 + 0.16)

        = $55,055 (1.16)

        = $63,863.80

Profit = $8,808.80

Loss:   $55,055 (1 - 0.16)

        = $55,055 (0.84)

        = $46,246.20

Loss = -$8,808.80

Profit + Loss

= $8,808.80 - $8,808.80

= 0

Find the inverse of the function. y = 2x2 –4
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The inverse function is y=\sqrt{\frac{x+4}{2}}


Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is y=2x^2-4.


This function is only invertible on the interval, x\ge 0.


To find the inverse on this interval, we interchange x and y.

x=2y^2-4


We now make y the subject to get,


x+4=2y^2


\Rightarrow \frac{x+4}{2}=y^2


\Rightarrow \pm \sqrt{\frac{x+4}{2}}=y


But the given interval is x\geq 0, This implies that, y\geq 0.


y=\sqrt{\frac{x+4}{2}}

Ariel weighed an object on her balance and recorded a mass of 24.3 grams.Her teacher told her that there was something wrong wit
grin007 [14]
For this case what we can do is the following rule of three:
 24.3 -----> 130%
 x ---------> 100%
 We clear the value of x:
 x = (100/130) * (24.3)
 x = 18.7 grams
 Answer:
 
the current mass of the object was:
 
x = 18.7 grams
