Lila wrote an equation of the cost for printing brochures, where x represents the number of brochures and y represents the total

cost. The total cost for 35 brochures is $41.45. The total cost for 65 brochures is $55.55. Step 1: Write the ordered pairs (35, 41.45) and (65, 55.55). Step 2: Find the slope. M = StartFraction 55.55 minus 41.45 Over 65 minus 35 EndFraction = 0.47 Step 3: Find the y-intercept to write the equation in slope intercept form. Y minus 55.55 = 0.47 (x minus 35). Y minus 55.55 = 0.47 x minus 16.45. Y = 0.47 x + 39.1. Which explains the error that Lila made? Lila made in error in Step 1 by reversing the ordered pairs. Lila made an error in Step 2 by not using the slope formula. Lila made an error in Step 3 when she did not use the x- and y-coordinates from the same ordered pair. Lila made an error in Step 3 when she did not use the distributive property correctly when multiplying.

Answer:

The answer is C. Lila made an error in Step 3 when she did not use the x- and y-coordinates from the same ordered pair.

Hope this helps!

Given the vectors, a=3i+4j, b=-2i+5j, c=10i-j, d=-1/3i+5/2j, find -0.4a-0.3b+0.2d=?
sveta [45]

Answer:

-\frac{2}{3}i - \frac{13}{5}j

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.4(3i + 4i) - 0.3(-2i + 5j) + 0.2(-\frac{1}{3}i + \frac{5}{2}j)

-1.2i - 1.6j + 0.6i - 1.5j - \frac{0.2}{3}i + 0.5j

Converting to fraction form;

-\frac{6}{5}i + \frac{3}{5}i - \frac{1}{15}i - \frac{8}{5}j - \frac{3}{2}j + \frac{1}{2} j

<u>Solving the i part;</u>

\frac{-18i + 9i - i}{15} = -\frac{2}{3}i

<u>Solving the j part;</u>

\frac{-16j-15j+5j}{10} = -\frac{13}{5}j

So -0.4a - o.3b + 0.2d =  -\frac{2}{3}i - \frac{13}{5}j

The area of a room is 396 square feet. The length is x+3, and the width is x+7 feet. Find the dimensions of the room
Marrrta [24]
This is an odd problem. The length and width look like they should be interchanged. Anyway I'll solve it and we'll talk about the results.
(x +7) (x + 3) = 396
x^2 + 7x + 3x + 21 = 396
x^2 + 10x + 21 = 396 Subtract 21 from both sides.
x^2 + 10x = 396 - 21
x^2 + 10x = 375
x^2 + 10x - 375 = 0 This probably factors.
(x + 25)(x - 15)
x + 25 = 0
x = - 25 which makes no sense. Negatives do not describe room dimensions.
x - 15= 0
x = 15. this is fine.

x+3 = 15 + 3 = 18
x + 7 = 15 + 7= 22

Check
=====
Area = L * W = 18 * 22 = 496. It does check.
22 should be the length

18 should be the width.

Consider this equation: -2x - 4 + 5x = 8 Generate a plan to solve for the cariable. Describe the steps that will be used.
nordsb [41]
We are given the function –2x – 4 + 5x = 8 and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:

-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.

3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.

7+6x14-9=37 insert parentheses
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

7+6\times(14-9)=37

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

7+6\times14-9

If we evaluate the expression as it is  we will get;

7+84-9=82

But we want to insert parenthesis so that we will use PEDMAS to obtain 37 as the result.

The only way this can be achieved is when we insert the parenthesis as shown below;

7+6\times(14-9)=7+6(5)=7+30=37
