The correct next step Amy could take is to factor (x^2 - 16) on the left side of the equation to yield (x + 4)(x – 4)(x + 2) = 0.
The equation is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{(x^2 - 16)(x + 2) = 0}[/tex]
The possible next steps are:
1. Expand the equation as follows
[tex]\mathbf{x^3+2x^2-16x-32 = 0}[/tex]
2. Express x^2 -16 as a difference of two squares as follows
[tex]\mathbf{(x + 4)(x- 4)(x + 2) = 0}[/tex]
However, the correct step in this case is to factor x^2 - 16 as a difference of two squares to give [tex]\mathbf{(x + 4)(x- 4)(x + 2) = 0}[/tex]
This is so, because the question says Amy is trying to solve for variable x.
This step will ensure that she gets the possible values of x, unlike expanding the whole equation .
Hence, the correct next step is [tex]\mathbf{(x + 4)(x- 4)(x + 2) = 0}[/tex]

The first term of an arithmetic sequence is 4 and the tenth term is 67.
What is the common difference? Show your work or explain your answer.
Answer:
d = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Give a₁₀ = 67 and a₁ = 4 , then
a₁ + 9d = 67
4 + 9d = 67 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
9d = 63 ( divide both sides by 9 )
d = 7

A machine takes 15 minutes to scan 1,125 pages. At this rate, how many pages can the machine in a hour?
Answer:
4500 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
an hour has 60 minutes. This means in 1 hour the machine will scan 60/15 more pages. 60/15 =4.
1125*4 =4500 pages/hour
In one hour the machine will scan 4500 pages.
What are algebraic expressions?In mathematics, an expression or mathematical expression is a finite combination of symbols that is well-formed according to rules that depend on the context.Mathematical symbols can designate numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping to help determine order of operations and other aspects of logical syntax.Given is that a machine takes 15 minutes to scan 1,125 pages.
The machine takes 15 minutes to scan 1,125 pages.
Then, in 1 minute, it will scan (1125/15) = 75 pages.
So, in 1 hour, it will scan -
x = 75 x 60
x = 4500
Therefore, in one hour the machine will scan 4500 pages.

At the school dance, between 6 and 7pm, 10 students per minute arrived. If there are 2050 students in the school,
what percent of them arrived at the dance between 6 and 7pm?
Answer:
600 is 29.268292682927% of 2050.
29.30% rounded off 1 decimal place (tenths)
29.27% rounded off 2 decimal places (hundredths)
Step-by-step explanation:
6-7pm is 1 hr.
1hr = 60 min
10 students per min
60 min * 10 = 600
600 ÷ 2050 = 0.29268292682927 = 29.268292682927%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Catherine walks her dog 3/4 a mile everyday.

There are 7 days a week and she walks 3/4 a mile everyday so weekly she walks 3/4 * 7 = 5 1/4 mile a week.
The probability of event A is 0. 48, the probability of event A and B is 0. 21, and the probability of events A or B is 0. 89. What is the probability of event B? 0. 09 0. 20 0. 27 0. 62.
Probabilities are used to determine the chances of an event
The probability of event B is 0.62
The probabilities are given as:
[tex]\mathbf{P(A) = 0.48}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(A\ and\ B) = 0.21}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(A\ or\ B) = 0.89}[/tex]
To calculate the probability of event B, we make use of the following formula
[tex]\mathbf{P(A\ and\ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\ or\ B)}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{0.21 = 0.48 + P(B) - 0.89}[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]\mathbf{P(B)= -0.48 +0.21 + 0.89}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(B)= 0.62}[/tex]
Hence, the probability of event B is 0.62
