We are given 15-7 here and we have to express it as sum.

Let us first understand the property to be use here.

We can write (a-b) as (a+(-b))

For example:

If we have 7-2, we can rewrite it as 7+(-2)

and then we can combine them to get 5

Now let us use the above property for our question,

We are given,

15-7

rewriting it as addition,

15+(-7)

+ and - on multiplication will be (-)

so +(-7) will remain -7 only

Answer: 15-7 = 15+(-7)

aksik [14]

Correct Answer: First Option

Explanation:

There are two ways to find the actual roots:

a) Either solve the given quadratic equation to find the actual roots

b) Or substitute the value of Possible Rational Roots one by one to find out which satisfies the given equation.

Method a is more convenient and less time consuming, so I'll be solving the given equation by factorization to find its actual roots. To find the actual roots set the given equation equal to zero and solve for x as given below:

$2x^{2} +2x-24=0\\ \\ 2(x^{2} +x-12)=0\\ \\ x^{2} +x-12=0\\ \\ x^{2} +4x-3x-12=0\\ \\ x(x+4)-3(x+4)=0\\ \\ (x-3)(x+4)=0\\ \\ x-3=0, x=3\\ \\ or\\\\x+4=0, x=-4$

This means the actual roots of the given equation are 3 and -4. So first option gives the correct answer.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Product B

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the number of ounces i the bottle by the price of the bottle. Product A has a unit price of $0.17 and Product B has a unit price of $0.20. Therefore Product B has a lower unit price :))

What is the surface area of the right cone below?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

$SA=54\pi\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the cone is given by the formula

$SA=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl$

where

r is the radius of the base

l is the slant height

we have

$r=3\ units\\l=15\ units$

substitute

$SA=\pi (3)^{2}+\pi (3)(15)$

$SA=54\pi\ units^2$

I need to find both of the solutions to the equation 100+(n-2)^ = 149

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

100+(n-2)² = 149

100-100+(n-2)² = 149-100

(n-2)² = 49

(n-2)² - 49 =0 but 49=7²

(n-2)² - 7² =0 use identity : a²-b²=(a-b)(a+b)

(n-2-7)(n-2+7)=0

(n-9)(n+5)=0

n-9=0 or n+5=0

n=9 or n=-5
