Part A: Option e: $5(9 x+1)$

Option f: $45 x+5$

Part B: Option c: $15(3 x+1)$

Option d: $(5 \cdot 9 x)+(5 \cdot 3)$

Part C: Option a: $(5 \cdot 9 x)-(5 \cdot 3)$

Option b: $45 x-15$

Explanation:

Part A: The equation is $(5 \cdot 9 x)+(5 \cdot 1)$

Simplifying, we have,

$45x+5$

Taking the term 5 common out, we have,

$5(9 x+1)$

Thus, the above two expressions are equivalent to the equation $(5 \cdot 9 x)+(5 \cdot 1)$ .

Hence, Option e and Option f are the correct answers.

Part B: The equation is $45 x+15$

Taking the term 15 common out, we have,

$15(3 x+1)$

Also, the equation can be rewritten as,

$(5 \cdot 9 x)+(5 \cdot 3)$

Thus, the above two expressions are equivalent to the equation $45 x+15$

Hence, Option c and Option d are the correct answers.

Part C: The equation is $15(3 x-1)$

Multiplying, we have,

$45 x-15$

The above expression can be rewritten as,

$(5 \cdot 9 x)-(5 \cdot 3)$

Thus, the above two expressions are equivalent to the equation $15(3 x-1)$

Hence, Option a and Option b are the correct answers.

A rectangle that had the perimeter of 70 and the area of 250 has enlarged; its sides became twice as long. what is the new area

aliya0001 [1]

The perimeter of the original rectangle is:
P = 2w + 2l = 70
The area of the original rectangle is:
A = w * l = 250
Then, by modifying the length of its sides we have:
Perimeter:
P '= 2 (2w) +2 (2l)
Rewriting:
P '= 2 (2w + 2l)
P '= 2P
P '= 2 (70)
P '= 140
Area:
A '= (2w) * (2l)
Rewriting:
A '= (2) * (2) (w) * (l)
A '= 4 * w * l
A '= 4 * A
A '= 4 * 250
A '= 1000
Answer:
the new area and the new perimeter are:
P '= 140
A '= 1000

Carlos is giving his friend in another state a new umbrella as a gift. He wants to ship the umbrella in a box he already has. Wh

notka56 [123]

Answer:

<h2>He could use the medium box.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the umbrella is 37.5 inches long.

If you observe, each box doesn't have 37 inches wide, however, they are tridimensional figures, which means they have a certaing height.

So, the smalle box is too small to fit the umbrella.

But, the medium box is perfect, because it has 27 inches wide and 27 inches height, which is enough to fit the umbrella. These are the best dimensions to send the umbrella.

Therefore, the medium box is the answer, the one that has dimensions 27x14x27.

While at a carnival, Andrew comes across a game that involves rolling a die. According to the game's rules, if the number rolled

Reptile [31]

Answer:

he can expect to lose 0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must calculate the expected value of the game.

If x is a discrete random variable that represents the gain obtained when rolling a dice, then the expected value E is:

$E =\sum xP (x)$

When throwing a dice the possible values are:

x: 1→ -$9; 2→ $4; 3→ -$9; 4→ $8; 5→ -$9; 6→ $12

The probability of obtaining any of these numbers is:

$p=\frac{1}{6}$

The gain when obtaining an even number is twice the number.

The loss to get an odd number is $ 9

So the expected gain is:

$E=-9*\frac{1}{6}-9*\frac{1}{6}-9*\frac{1}{6} + 4*\frac{1}{6} + 8*\frac{1}{6} + 12*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E =-27*\frac{1}{6} + 24*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E=-3*\frac{1}{6}\\\\E=-$0.5$
