2 x minus 2 Lisa’s Method 2 (x minus 2) + 2 = 2 x minus 2 + 2 = 2 x Whose method is correct and why? Lisa’s method is correct because 2 (x minus 2) equals 2 x minus 2. Lisa’s method is correct because 2 (x minus 2) equals 2 x. Jaleel is correct because 2 (x minus 2) equals 2 x minus 2. Jaleel is correct because 2 (x minus 2) equals 2 x minus 4.

Answer:

(D)Jaleel's method is correct because 2(x-2)=2x-4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jaleel and Lisa are simplifying the expression 2(x-2)+2 as shown.

J$aleel's Method: \left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2 (x -2) + 2 \\= 2 x - 4 + 2 \\= 2 x - 2\end{array}\right

L$isa's Method: \left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2 (x-2) + 2 \\= 2 x -2 + 2 \\= 2 x\end{array}\right

We can see that Jaleel's method is correct because:

2(x-2)=2x-4.

When you expand, you must multiply the term outside by all the terms inside the bracket.

The correct option is D.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Z = 2.1\ is\ higher\ than\ 1.96, we\ reject\ H_o

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation of given question is described below:

Here, the test of hypothesis states that

H_o : Mean = 28.6

H_a : Mean\ which\ is\ not\ equals\ 28.6

The test statistic is

Z = \frac{(\bar X - Mean)}{\frac{Population\ standard\ deviation}{vn} }

Z = \frac{(30.06 - 28.6)}{\frac{4.18}{6} }

= 2.1

According to the given data α = 0.05,

So, the major value is

IZ(0.025)I = 1.96

(refer to the standard normal table) .

Finally

Z = 2.1\ is\ higher\ than\ 1.96, we\ reject\ H_o

The average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 15 is about −4.667. How does the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 20 compar
Amanda [17]
First we calculate the ambio rate from x = 0 to x = 15:
 We have:
 R = ((80-10) / (0-15))
 R = -4.666666667
 We now calculate for the entire interval:
 from x = 0 to x = 20:
 R = ((80-2) / (0-20))
 R = -3.9
 Answer:
 What is the average rate of change over the entire slide?
 R = -3.9
 The average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 15 is about -4.667. How does the average rate change from x = 0 to x = 20 compare to this number?
 The percentage difference is:
 (-3.9 / -4.666666667) * (100) = 83.57142857%
 100-83.57142857 = 16.42857143%

How many miles per hour is this? (one furlong is 18 mile, and a fortnight is 14 days. a furlong originally referred to the lengt
WITCHER [35]

the complete question is

While driving in an exotic foreign land you see a speed limit sign on a highway that reads 180,000 furlongs per fortnight. How many miles per hour is this? (One furlong is 1/8 mile, and a fortnight is 14 days. A furlong originally referred to the length of a plowed furrow.)

Step 1

<u>convert (furlongs per fortnight) to (miles per fortnight)</u>

180,000 furlongs per fortnight=180,000*(1/8)=22,500 miles per fortnight

Step 2

<u>convert miles per fortnight to miles per hour</u>

1 day=24 hour

14 day=24*14=336 hours

22,500 miles per fortnight=22,500/336=66.96 mph

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

66.96 mph

Which quadratic equation is equivalent to (x – 4)2 – (x – 4) – 6 = 0?
Viktor [21]

I hope choices must be given in the problem.

I am showing the method to find the equivalent equation of the above equation. You can match with your given choices.

First step is to expand the first term. So,

(x-4)² = (x - 4)(x - 4) Since a²= a*a

= x² - 4x - 4x + 4 * 4 By multiplying.

= x² -8x + 16 Combine the like terms.

So, (x - 4)² - (x -4) - 6

= x² - 8x + 16 - x + 4 - 6

= x² - 9x + 14 Combine the like terms.

So, equivalent equation of the above equation is x² - 9x + 14 = 0.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The given coordinates of the vertices of rectangle ABCD are A(−2,2),B(4,2),C(4,−2).

We are to plot D on the graph.

Since ABCD is a rectangle, the abscissa of D will be that of A and the ordinate of D will be that of C.
