Allen is showing his work in simplifying −8.3 + 9.2 − 4.4 + 3.7. Identify any errors in his work or in his reasoning.

Step Work Reasoning

−8.3 + 9.2 − 4.4 + 3.7 Original problem

1 −8.3 + 9.2 + 4.4 + 3.7 Additive inverse

2 −8.3 + 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7 Commutative property

3 −8.3 + (4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7) Associative property

4 −8.3 + 17.3 Simplify

5 9 Simplify

A: He did not make any errors.

B: Step 1: He wrote −4.4 incorrectly as + 4.4.

C: Step 2: He identified changing the order of the numbers as the commutative property, which is incorrect.

D: Step 3: He identified changing the grouping of the numbers as the associative property, which is incorrect.

Answers

Answer 1

In 1. He did not use the correct of making it an additive inverse. Usually to make additive inverse, one has to add the same numbers but opposite signs with it to result for a zero.

So the answer for step 1. would be... - 8.3 + 8.3 + 9.2 - 9.2 - 4.4 + 4.4 + 3.7 - 3.7

In 2. he also had errors because commutative property states that we can place the numbers in a different format but the result number will always be the same.

So the original problem is −8.3 + 9.2 − 4.4 + 3.7  which results 0.2                                     but in Allen's workout: −8.3 + 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7 results 9

Actually the answer is B.  cuz A is incorrect because he made errors. D is also incorrect because changing the grouping of numbers are commutative property. And step 2 is actually commutative so its not incorrect.

Answer 2
answer above is correct!

Una empresa que trabaja en un mercado de competencia perfecta tiene una función de costos totales CT=Q^3-45Q^2+600Q+1.200 Las funciones de oferta y demanda de este mercado son: Qo=5P-300 y Qd=2.860-8P. Recuerde que la condición para maximizar beneficios dice que la empresa habrá de producir una cantidad tal que haga igualar sus costos marginales con el precio de equilibrio de mercado.

Answers

Answer:

La cantidad producida para maximizar las ganancias es de 915 unidades

Step-by-step explanation:

Pregunta: Calcule cuánto producirá para maximizar las ganancias.

La función de costo dada se presenta de la siguiente manera;

CT = Q³ - 45 · Q² + 600 · Q + 1200

La función de suministro es Qo = 5 · P - 300

La función de demanda es Qd = 2860 - 8 · P

A precio de equilibrio, tenemos;

Qo = Qd

Por lo tanto;

5 · P - 300 = 2860 - 8 · P

13 · P = 2.860 + 300 = 3.160

P = 3160/13

Por lo tanto;

Q = 2860 - 8 × (3160/13) = 11900/13 ≈ 915,38

La cantidad producida que maximiza las ganancias es de aproximadamente 915 unidades.

El costo total CT = 915³ - 45 × 915² + 600 × 915 + 1200 = 728,935,950

Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2 = c2

Answers

Answer: [tex]b=\sqrt{95}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for b, we want to use the Pythagorean Theorem as given.

b and 7 are the legs, and 12 is the hypotenuse.

[tex]7^2+b^2=12^2[/tex]      [exponent]

[tex]49+b^2=144[/tex]     [subtract both sides by 49]

[tex]b^2=95[/tex]               [square root both sides]

[tex]b=\sqrt{95}[/tex]

Now we know [tex]b=\sqrt{95}[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

y = -x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1x +b

Using the point for x and y we can calculate b

-2 = -1(5)+b

-2 = -5+b

Add 5 to each side

-2+5 = b

3 = b

y = -x+3

How is adding and subtracting radical expressions similar to adding and subtracting variables ?????

Answers

Answer: To add or subtract radicals, the indices and what is inside the radical (called the radicand) must be exactly the same. If the indices and radicands are the same, then add or subtract the terms in front of each like radical. If the indices or radicands are not the same, then you can not add or subtract the radicals.

Answer:

combining like terms. if the radicand is the you can combine the radical. this is the same as combining variables as long as the variable is the same if that makes sense

Step-by-step explanation:

so like you can add 7a and 3a because they have the same variable a. you can combined 2 root 2 and 4 root 2 because the radicand is same <3

If the sum of seven odd consecutive numbers is 231, find the middle number.

Answers

this is your answer, good luck buddy

Answer:

33

Step-by-step explanation:

(1+x) + (3+x) + (5+x) + (7+x) + (9+x) + (11+x) + (13+x) = 231

7x + 49 = 231

7x = 231 - 49

7x = 182

x = 182/7

x = 26

To find the middle number;

7 + x

= 7+26

= 33

Sam feels that students score better on math tests that take place on Fridays. The school provides Sam with the school math test average, but they cannot separate them by date taken. The school is too large for him to ask every student, so he randomly selects a sample of willing students' test scores after the next Friday's math test. He uses the method of hypothesis testing to compare the Friday scores against the true average of all scores. Frame the correct set of hypotheses for his research. Decide where the rejection region will lie.

there are unspecified number of cows and hens in a den. if there are total of 30 heads and 80 legs in a den, find the number of cows and hens in a den.​

Answers

Let x be the number of cow.

Number of hens=180-x.

Since cows have 4 legs and hens 2,

So, 4x+2(180-x)=420.

or, 4x+360–2x=420

or, 2x=420–360

or, 2x=60

or,x=30.

So, number of cows is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 2/5 of the bag is 60 candy. By taking this information we can conclude that 1/5 of the bag is 30 candy. We know that 1/5 of the bag is 30, so 30 times 5 is 150 candy.

Now that we have found out that there is 150 candy total we can know divde 150 by 3 to find out how much candy is in 1/3 of the bag.

150/3 = 50 Candy

1/3 of the bag represent 50 candy.

What is the 100th term of the arithmetic sequence below?

Answers

Answer:

a₁₀₀ = 697

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

Here a₁ = 4 and d = a₂ - a₁ = 11 - 4 = 7 , then

a₁₀₀ = 4 + (99 × 7) = 4 + 693 = 697

The velocity of a particle moving along a straight line is given by v(t)=6t2+4t−5 cm/sec at time t seconds with initial position s(0)=3 cm. What is the position of the particle at t=2 seconds, in cm?

Answers

Answer:

s(2) = 17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the velocity function is;

v(t) = 6t² + 4t − 5 cm/sec

Integral of velocity gives distance.

Thus;

s(t) = ∫v(t) = ∫6t² + 4t − 5

s(t) = 2t³ + 2t² - 5t + c

We are told that s(0)=3 cm

Thus;

s(0) = 2(0)³ + 2(0)² - 5(0) + c = 3

Thus; c = 3

Thus;

s(t) = 2t³ + 2t² - 5t + 3

At t = 2 secs

s(2) = 2(2)³ + 2(2)² - 5(2) + 3

s(2) = 17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can setup an equation in terms of k and j:

a school has 2500 pupils. when 52 boys and 1/9 of the girls are absent, the number of the boys present is equal to the number of girls. how many does doe he school have​

Answers

Given :

a school has 2500 pupils. when 52 boys and 1/9 of the girls are absent, the number of the boys present is equal to the number of girls. how many pupils does the school have ?

Solution :

Let the number of boys be x

Data :

Total pupils = 2500

Absent no. of boys and girls = 52 and 1/9

Now,

First of all we need to get the number of girls then add it with the no. of boys absent and then subtract the whole from 2500 to get the required answer.

Remaining no of pupils = 2500 - 52 ➝ 2448

Hence, the no. of girls absent = 1/9 of 2448 ➝ 272

Therefore,

Total no. of pupils absent = 52 + 272 ➝ 324

No. of pupils present = 2500 - 324 ➝ 2176

Henceforth, 2176 pupils are present

PLEASE HELP ASAPBarney was a very inventive scientist and tried to perform the same experiments as those by famous scientists from long ago. One of the most challenging experiments was to roll out a very thin film of gold and put X-ray film in a circle around it. The difficult part was to get ahold of some radioactivity that he could shoot at the thin film for gold. One day, he ran into The Great Gazoo and told him his goal. The Great Gazoo said he had the perfect substance for him that was radioactive and should work. The element was named after him and had the symbol Gz. Barney quickly went back to his lab to run the experiment. What Barney noticed is that all the radioactive particles went through the gold film and none of them ricocheted back, but all went straight through the gold. Being puzzled, he quickly went to the lab to analyze this unknown radioactive substance. He found that the atomic number was 119, the mass number was 305.
