Part 1:
Write an algebraic expression to describe the depth of the scuba diver after any number of minutes.




Part 2:

Describe what the variable represents in this situation.

Answers

Answer 1
-3.8 - 0.5m <== ur expression

the variable (m) represents number of minutes
Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]-3.8-0.5x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A scuba diver is 3.8 meters below the surface of the water.

So, Depth of scuba driver is - 3.8 m

He is descending at a rate of 0.5 meters per minute.

So, Rate = -0.5 m . min

So,Distance traveled in x minutes = -0.05 x

So, The depth after x minutes = -3.8-0.5x

So, an algebraic expression to describe the depth of the scuba diver after any number of minutes is  -3.8-0.5x

The variable x represents the no. of minutes .

What is 12x3 – 9x2 – 4x + 3 in factored form?

Answers

The factors of the given polynomial 12x^3-9x^2-4x+3  are

(4x-3) (3x^2-1).

Given: Polynomial  12x^3-9x^2-4x+3        

We have factorized the given polynomial.

What is the meaning of factors?

The factor means a number that can be multiplied or divided to produce a given number.

Consider the given polynomial 12x^3-9x^2-4x+3.

We will factorize using a grouping of terms,

Taking  3x^2 common from the first two terms and -1 common from the last two terms, we have,

3x^2(4x-3)-1(4x-3)

     

Now, again taking (4x-3) common,  we have,

(4x-3)(3x^2-1)

Thus, The factors of the given polynomial are (4x-3)(3x^2-1).

Final answer:

The factored form of 12x3 - 9x2 - 4x + 3 is (3x2 - 1)(4x - 3).

Explanation:

The expression 12x3 - 9x2 - 4x + 3 can be factored as follows:

First, identify any common factors among the terms. In this case, the greatest common factor (GCF) is 1.

Next, group the terms:

12x3 - 9x2 - 4x + 3 = (12x3 - 9x2) + (-4x + 3)

Factor out the GCF from each group:

12x3 - 9x2 = 3x2(4x - 3)

-4x + 3 = -1(4x - 3)

Combine the factored terms:

(3x2 - 1)(4x - 3)

Therefore, the factored form of 12x3 - 9x2 - 4x + 3 is (3x2 - 1)(4x - 3).

Keith buys a bag of dog food. The bag contains 16 1/2 cups of food. If his dog eats 1 3/8 cups a day, how long will the bag last?

Answers


[tex]16 \frac{1}{2} = 16.5[/tex]
[tex]1 \frac{3}{8} = 1.375[/tex]
[tex]16.5 \div 1.375 = 12 \: days[/tex]


The number of days required to feed dog food will be 12.

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression is the combination of numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also be used to denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that Keith buys a bag of dog food. The bag contains 16¹/₂ cups of food. If his dog eats 1³/₈ cups a day,

The time will be calculated as:-

T = ( 16¹/₂ ÷ 1³/₈ )

T = ( 16.5 ÷ 1.375 )

T = 12 days

Therefore, the number of days required to feed dog food will be 12.

The rectangular backboard of a basketball court needs to be assembled. Its area is given as 18,900 cm2 and the width as 1.8 m.

What is the backboard’s length in metres?

Answers

Answer: 
1.05

Explanation: 
The formula for area is:
A = l • w 
So to find the length, you would rearrange to make:
l = A ÷ w 
1.8 m = 180 cm 
So: 
l = 18,900 ÷ 180 
l = 105 cm 
105 cm = 1.05 m

Answer:

1.05 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular backboard is A = 18900 cm²

And the width is w = 1.8 m = 1.8 ×100 = 180 cm

The area of the rectangle is given by

[tex]A=l\cdot w[/tex]

Substituting the known values

[tex]18900=l\cdot 180\\\\l=\frac{18900}{180}\\\\l=105\text{ cm}[/tex]

Thus, the length of the backboard's is 105 cm = 1.05 m

Veronica is shopping for school clothes. She wants to buy pants and shirts. The cost of her clothes can be found using the expression 30x + 25y where x is the number of pants and y is the number of shirts. She will also have to pay 8% tax. If Veronica buys two pants and eight shirts, what expression could be used to determine the total cost of the bill including 8% tax?

Answers

Hey there.

I'll list the variables so we're clear.

= 2, y = 8

So far the expression looks like this: (i'll come back to the 8%)

30(2) + 25(8) 

60 + 200 = 260

Cool, now we have the price before tax. We can add the sales tax by multiplying $260 by 8% as a decimal.

260 · 0.08 = 20.80

260 + 20.80 + 280.80

The total cost of Veronica's bill is $280.80

Cheers!


Final answer:

To find the total cost of Veronica's school clothes including 8% tax, first calculate the cost before tax with her specific quantities of pants and shirts, and then add the tax. The final expression shows a total cost of $280.8.

Explanation:

Veronica is shopping for school clothes, and the cost of her clothes can be found using the expression 30x + 25y, where x is the number of pants and y is the number of shirts. She will also have to pay 8% tax. If Veronica buys two pants and eight shirts, the expression to determine the total cost of the bill including 8% tax would be:

First, substitute x = 2 (pants) and y = 8 (shirts) into the expression to find the total before tax: 30(2) + 25(8).Calculate the cost before tax: 60 + 200 = 260.Calculate the total with 8% tax: 260 + (0.08 × 260).The final expression to determine the total bill is: 260 + 20.8 = 280.8.

I suck a writing proofs in geometry.... please someone explain it to me, i cant seem to reconize what's going on. I need major help in properties of congruent proofs.

Answers

Congruence Properties

In earlier mathematics courses, you have learned concepts like the commutative or associative properties. These concepts help you solve many types of mathematics problems. There are a few properties relating to congruence that will help you solve geometry problems as well. These are especially useful in two-column proofs, which you will learn later in this lesson!

The Reflexive Property of Congruence

The reflexive property of congruence states that any shape is congruent to itself. This may seem obvious, but in a geometric proof, you need to identify every possibility to help you solve a problem. If two triangles share a line segment, you can prove congruence by the reflexive property.
