What is
Solution 1
The first step for solving this expression is to reduce the fraction with 2.
3 ×  \frac{1}{4}
Now multiply 3 by the numerator (top of the fraction) to find your final answer.
 \frac{3}{4}
This means that the correct answer to your question is going to be  \frac{3}{4} ,, or 0.75 in decimal form.

Question
3(x - 9) = -39 solve and check solution
Solution 1
The answer is x= -4

3(x-9)= -39
divide both sides by 3 
x-9= -13
add 9 to both sides
x= -4

3(-4-9)= -39
-12-27= -39
Solution 2
3(x-9)=-39

3x-27=-39
    +27  +27
3x=-12
/3   /3

x=-4

Question
A plumber charges $100 to come to a house and $95 dollars per hour that he is there. If the total cost of the plumber’s visit to a house was $385, how many hours was the plumber working at the house?
Solution 1
3 hours.

First, you have to subtract 100 from 385 to find the total cost of hours at the house. Then, since he charges $95 every hour, you have to divide 385/95 and you get 3 as your answer. Hope this helped :) .

Question
What is the sum of the polynomials (-x^2+9)+(-3x^2-11x+4). • -4x^2-2x+4 • -4x^2-11x+13 • 2x^2+20x+4 • 2x^2+11x+5
Solution 1
I think the answer is -4x^-11x+13
Solution 2
The first step for solving this expression is to remove the first set of parenthesis.
-x² + 9 + (-3x² - 11x + 4)
Now,, remember that when there is a "+"sign in front of the parenthesis,, then the parenthesis in the expression remains the same. This means that all you need to do for the second side of the expression is remove the parenthesis.
-x² + 9 + -3x² - 11x + 4
Collect the like terms that have an exponent of two.
-4x
² + 9 - 11x + 4
Add the regular numbers together.
-4x² + 13 - 11x
Lastly,, use the commutative property to reorder the terms and get your final answer.
-4x² - 11x + 13
Since we cannot simplify this expression down any further,, our final answer is going to be -4x² - 11x + 13 or option B.

Question
Which associations best describe the data in the table?  Variable m 9   6   5  1  3   4  2  8   7  Variable n 33 24 18 3 10 14 7 32 26 Choose exactly two answers that are correct. A. linear association B. negative association C. nonlinear association D. positive association
Solution 1
In order to find out the association, you need to plot the data. Given that m is x, and n is y, after plotting, the graph shows a positive linear association. The graph rises from left to right. So the answer is letter D.
Question
the expression 5n+2 can be used to find total cost in dollars of bowling where n is the number of games bowled 2 represents the cost of shoe rental. How much will it cost vincent to bowl 3 games?
Solution 1
So justsubsitue 3 for n
5(3)+2
15+2
17
answer is 17

Solution 1
Answer : the triangle in question is a right triangle.

~~

Why??

The pythagorean theorem is,

 {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}

Plug in the numbers,

 {3}^{2} + {4}^{2} = {5}^{2}



This is true
