Answer:

Sample Response: Since this is a subtraction problem, Jeremy needed to distribute the negative to the terms in the numerator. Jeremy only distributed it to the x2-term, and not to 15. Instead, he kept the 15 positive. When he combined like terms, he got a result of 5 for the constants. The correct result is x + 5.

nasty-shy [4]
<span>If it is a right prism, then the cross-section area will be considered a rectangle. Each lateral face will be perpendicular to the base, and if we cut the plane it will be perpendicular to the bases and the resulting angles of the cross-section would all be simply right angles. 
Hence,

ryzh [129]

Two thirds of a straight angle
solniwko [45]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

Two thirds of a straight angle is 120°

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>First, we start by defining the straight angle:</u>

A straight angle is an angle whose measure is 180°

<u>Now,</u> we want to calculate two thirds of a straight angle

<u>To get that fraction</u>, we will multiply the measure of the straight angle by \frac{2}{3}

<u>This means that:</u>

\frac{2}{3} of a straight angle = \frac{2}{3} * 180 = 120 degrees

Hope this helps :)
