The value of the expression if x = -1/2 is 15

Given the expression below shown;

f(x) = -6(x - 2)

If the value of x is -1/2, hence;

f(-1/2) = -6(-1/2 - 2)

Simplify

f(-1/2) = -6(-5/2)

f(-1/2) = 6 * 5/2

f(-1/2) = 3 * 5 = 15

Hence the value of the expression if x = -1/2 is 15

Distributive property is the term for breaking a larger number apart into smaller numbers that can be multiplied together to get a specific result.

Firstly, to distribute means to divide something or give a share or part of something.

Distributive property explains that multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.

Therefore, distributive property is the term for breaking a larger number apart into smaller numbers that can be multiplied together to get a specific result.

Answer:

p ≈ 7.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

using the Sine Rule in the triangle

[tex]\frac{p}{sinP}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{r}{sinR}[/tex] ( substitute values )

[tex]\frac{p}{sin40}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{sin62}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

p × sin62° = 10 × sin40° ( divide both sides by sin62° )

p = [tex]\frac{10sin40}{sin62}[/tex] ≈ 7.3 m ( to the nearest tenth )

Answer:

[tex]\fbox {p = 7.3 m}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying the Law of Sines :

The probability that you pick a striped shirt AND a blue suit  is 1/4 AND a pink tie is 3/8.

According to the statement

Number of blue suit = 1

Number of black suit = 2

Number of brown suit = 1

Number of blue ties = 2

Number of red ties = 3

Number of pink ties = 3

Now we find the probability by its formula

Probability that picked suit is blue = blue suits/ total number of suits

Probability = 1/4

Now,

Probability that picked tie is pink = Pink tie / total number of ties

Probability = 3/8

So, The probability that you pick a striped shirt AND a blue suit  is 1/4 AND a pink tie is 3/8.

The probability of winning 15 out of the 22 games is [tex]P = 0.099[/tex]

We know that the probability of winning on the arcade game is 0.568.

Then the probability of losing is:

P = 1 - 0.568 = 0.432

The probability of winning 15 out of 22 games is given by the equation:

[tex]P = C(22, 15)*(0.568)^{15}*(0.432)^{7}[/tex]

Where C(22, 15) is the number of combinations of 15 elements that we can make with a set of 22 elements, given by:

[tex]C(22, 15) = \frac{22!}{(22 - 15)!*15!} = \frac{22!}{7!*15!} = \frac{22*21*20*19*18*17*16}{7*6*5*4*3*2*1} = 170,544[/tex]

Answer:

-70

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given this arithmetic sequence:

-2, -6, -10, -14, ...

And we want to find the 18th term in it.

The 18th term can be found using this formula:

1st term + common difference(desired term-1)

The desired term is the term that we are looking for. In this case, it would be the 18th term, so substitute 'desired term' with 18.

1st term + common difference(18-1)

So, let's find the first term and the common difference.

The 1st term is the first term (number) that appears in the sequence. In this case, that number would be -2.

The common difference can be found by doing second term minus first term.

Remember that we know that the first term is -2. The second term is the second number that appears in the sequence, which would be -6.

So, do -6 subtract -2.

-6 - - 2

-6 + 2

-4

The common difference is -4.

So, we can plug -2 and -4 into the formula.

-2 - 4(18-1)

Now, doing the order of operations, first, subtract 1 from 18.

-2-4(17)

Now multiply -4 and 17 together.

-2 -68

Subtract -68 from -2.

-70

The 18th term of the sequence is -70.

A. The Highest Points Of The Graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A nonperiodic function is one that generates a graph without a regular recurring pattern over a fixed time interval. A repeating section of a graph is called the period.

The area of the convex polygon is 21.5 square units

The vertices are given as:

(0,5), (-1,2), (4,4), (-3,-4) and (2,0)

The area is then calculated as:

A = 0.5 * |x1y2 - x2y1 +x2y3 - x3y2 + ....... |

So, we have:

A = 0.5 * |-1 * 5 - 2 * 0 + 0 * 4 - 5 * 4 + 4 * 0 - 4 * 2 +2 * -4 - 0 * -3 - 3 * 2 + 4 * 1|

Evaluate

A = 0.5 * |-43|

Remove the absolute bracket

A = 0.5 * 43

This gives

A = 21.5

Hence, the area of the convex polygon is 21.5 square units

Since the jet bomber arrived over its Target at the same time as its fighter jet escorted, it took the jet bomber 0.34 h to reach the target.

To find the number of hours, we need to solve simultaneous equations.

Simultaneous equations are pair of equations which contain two unknowns.

Let

So, D = vt

D = 500t  (1)

Also, D = VT

D = 60T  (2)

Since  jet bomber traveling 500 mph arrived over its Target at the same time as its fighter jet escorted which left the same fate 2.5 hours after the bomb took off.

T = t + 2.5

So, D = 60(t + 2.5)  (3)

D = 500t  (1)

D = 60(t + 2.5)  (3)

Equating equations (1) and (3), we have

500t = 60(t + 2.5)

500t = 60t + 150

500t - 60t = 150

440t = 150

t = 150/440

t = 15/44

t = 0.34 h

So, it took the jet bomber 0.34 hours to reach the target.

If the time taken by 14 inches wide is one hour then the blade of 12 inches wide will take 1 hour 17 minutes to mow a lawn.

What is width?

The width of something is the measurement of one side of a body. It is generally less than length of that body or shape.

How to calculate time?

We have been given time of 1 hour if blade is 14 inches wide and we have to calculate time taken by 12 inches wide blade:

It will be as 14/12* 1 hour

=14/12

=1.167

=1.17 hour

Hence the time taken by the blade of 12 inches wide will be 1 hour and 17 minutes.

Answer:

70 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called inverse proportion.

1hr : 14in

x hr : 12in

Ask yourself, what do you do to 14 to get 12? To find this out, we do:

14 / 12 = 1.16666667

Since the blade is smaller, it will take longer. So, we times 1hr by 1.16666667 to get

1.16666667 hrs =

1.17 hours (rounded)

This is 70.2 mins, or 1hr 10 mins
