Answer:

Add 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When distributing, pay attention to the negatives both inside and outside the parentheses. Imagine a 1 directly after the second negative symbol in the equation:

-5-1(-2)

Don't subtract 1 from 5! Instead multiply -1 by -2 (you're distributing, remember?)

A negative multiplied by another negative equals a positive!

-5+2

-5+2=-3

By definition we have to:
 Acute triangle - It is a triangle that has all acute angles. An acute angle is one whose degree of measurement is less than 90.
 Therefore, Charlene's definition is correct.
 Charlene said:
 triangle is a triangle whose three interior angles have measures less than 90 °

Which is equivalent to RootIndex 3 StartRoot 8 EndRoot Superscript x?
sergeinik [125]

Solving  RootIndex 3 StartRoot 8 EndRoot Superscript x we get =2^x

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find equivalent to RootIndex 3 StartRoot 8 EndRoot Superscript x

Writing in mathematical form:

(\sqrt[3]{8})^x

Solving:

We know 8= 2x2x2= 2^3

and \sqrt[3]{x}=x^{\frac{1}{3}}

Applying these rules:

=((2^3)^{\frac{1}{3}})^x

=(2^{\frac{3}{3}})^x\\

=2^x

So, solving  RootIndex 3 StartRoot 8 EndRoot Superscript x we get =2^x

Four people at pia’s pottery shop each make 29 mugs and 18 pottery bowls three people at Jason’s craft shop each make the same n
BartSMP [9]

The seven people made 383 objects in all

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Four people at pia’s pottery shop each make 29 mugs and 18 pottery bowls
  • Three people at Jason’s craft shop each make the same number of mugs and twice as many pottery bowls

We need to find how many objects the seven people made in all

∵ Four people at pia’s pottery shop each make 29 mugs

∵ Three people at Jason’s craft shop each make the same

    number of mugs

∴ Seven people in the two shops made 29 mugs each

∴ The total number of mugs = 7 × 29

∴ The total number of mugs = 203

∵ Four people at pia’s pottery shop each make 18 pottery bowls

∵ Three people at Jason’s craft shop each make twice as

    many pottery bowls

- Multiply the number of bowls by 2

∴ Three people at Jason’s craft shop each make 2 × 18 = 36

   pottery bowls

∴ The total number of pottery bowls = (4 × 18) + (3 × 36)

∴ The total number of pottery bowls = 72 + 108

∴ The total number of pottery bowls = 180

Now add the total number of mugs and the total number of pottery bowls to find the total number of objects the seven people made

∵ The total number of mugs is 203

∵ The total number of pottery bowls is 180

∴ The total number of objects = 203 + 180

∴ The total number of objects = 383

The seven people made 383 objects in all

A car travels 180 miles in 4 hours. Find the car’s speed in feet per minute. (There are 5,280 ft in 1 mile)
FinnZ [79.3K]

Given :

Distance travelled , d = 180 miles.

Time taken , t = 4 hours.

To Find :

Speed in feet per minutes.

Solution :

Distance in feet is , d = 180×5280 = 950400 feet.

Time taken , t = 4×60 = 240 minutes.

Speed is given by , s=\dfrac{Distance}{Time \ Taken}

S=\dfrac{950400}{240}\ ft/min\\\\S=3960\ ft/min

Hence, this is the required solution.
