Trisha says that since 4(3s + 2) and 5(7s + 3) both equal 20 when s=1, the expressions are equivalent. Is she correct? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Trisha is not correct in claiming that these mathematical expressions 4(3s + 2) and 5(7s + 3) both equal 20 when s = 1.

What are mathematical expressions?

Mathematical expressions are the combinations of variables, numbers, and arithmetic operators without the equation symbol (=).

The basic mathematical or arithmetic operators are addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication.

Mathematical expressions are not the same as equations.  Equations show that two or more mathematical expressions are equal or equivalent.

In this situation, the equality of the two expressions can be proved by substituting s with 1, as follows:

Let s = 1

4(3s + 2) = 4(3 + 2) = 4 x 5 = 20

5(7s + 3) = 5(7 + 3) = 4 x 10 = 40

We know that 20 ≠ 40.

Thus, Trisha is not correct in claiming that the two mathematical expressions are equal when s = 1.

why is 6 divided by zero, zero and zero divided by six is undefined?​

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason a number divided by zero is undefined is as follows.

Every operation, addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division, is carried out between two numbers and must have a single correct answer.

For example 1 + 5 = 6. The only correct answer to 1 + 5 is 6. There is no other correct answer to that addition. The same is true of any multiplication, subtraction, or division. Another example: 8/2 = 4. No other correct solution exists to the division of 8 by 2 other than 4.

Division is defined in terms of multiplication.

The definition of dividing a number by another number is:

a divided by b equals c if and only if b * c = a.

For example, 10/5 = 2 if and only if 5 * 2 = 10. 5 * 2 does equal 10, so it is correct that 10/5 = 2.

Now let's try dividing by zero and see the problem that arises.

Let's try to divide 8 by 0.

8/0 =

Since we are not used to dividing by zero, we don't really know what the answer should be, but we can try different answers.

Let's say 8/0 = 8

Then by the definition of multiplication, we need 0 * 8 to equal 8, but we know that 0 * 8 = 0, so the answer of 8/0 cannot be 8. Let's try a different answer.

8/0 = 0, then we need 0 * 0 to equal 8, but 0 * 0 = 0, not 8, so 0 also does not work.

We can generalize and try

8/0 = k, but then that requires 0 * k to equal 8. Since multiplication by 0 always has a result of 0, there is no number k that will multiply by 0 and give 8. This means that a number divided by 0 cannot give a result.

Now let's try one more thing.

What about 0 divided by 0.

Let 0/0 = 1. Then 0 * 1 = 0. It seems to work, but here there is a different problem. We could also say that 0/0 = 2 since 0 * 2 = 0; 0/0 = 3 since 0 * 3 = 0, etc. and now 0/0 can equal every number. The result of a division must be a unique answer, not all numbers.

When we try to divide a non-zero number by 0, no number works in the definition of division, so dividing a non-zero number by 0 is undefined. When we try to divide 0 by 0, every number works. Since there is no unique solution, 0/0 is also undefined. Therefore, division by zero is undefined.

Now the last part of your question.

What about 0 divided by 6?

0/6 = 0 if and only if 6 * 0 = 0. Well, 0 * 6 does equal zero. There is no other number that you can use as the quotient of 0/6 and have the corresponding multiplication equal zero, so 0/6 is indeed 0, and that operation is defined.

0 divided by any number other than zero is a defined division and equals 0.

Conclusion:

(any number)/0 is undefined

0/(any number other than zero) is defined and equals zero

Answers

The area of a circle is:

Area = PI x r^2 ( r is the radius which is half the diameter)

Using the information in the problem:

254.34 = 3.14 x r^2

Divide both sides by 3.14:

81 = r^2

Take the square root of both sides:

r = 9

The diameter = 2r = 2(9) = 18 cm

Answer:

ik this is late so sry but um hope this helps someone else in the future?

Step-by-step explanation:

We’re going to see how the masses of objects affect the gravitational force between them. Since gravitational force between two objects depends on the mass and distance between them, as you can see in the chart, as the mass of the objects multiplies, so does the gravitational force between them. To find the actual gravitational force between the two objects, you take the mass of both objects and multiply them. Let’s try and find the gravitational force between them. First, we have to find the mass of the object, so we’ll take the mass of objects 1 and 2 in the first equation. So let’s start with object 1, 1x10 to the 20th power which equals 10 to the 20th power, now object 2, 1x10 to the 20th power which equals 10 to the 20th power. Now we multiply the masses to get the gravitational force of 10 to the power of 40.

Answer:

2(4z − 3 − 1) = 166 − 46

8z − 8 = 120

8z = 128

z = 16

pls give the brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to multiply 2(4z - 3 - 1 ). so 2 * 4z = 8z. so then you would do 2 * (-3) = -6. then you would do the same with -1. 2* (-1) = -2.

now you have to put it back in equation form. 8z - 6 - 2 = 166 - 46. now you have to combine like terms. -6-2 = -8. 166 - 46 = 120. and then put it back into equation form. 8z - 8 = 120. then you add 8 to 120. 120+8 = 128. now to find z all you have to do is divide 128/8 = 16

z = 16
