A company manufactures skateboards. Each skateboard requires 1 6/7 hours of labor to assemble and 2 1/2 hours of labor to finish and stain. The cost of labor to the company is $36.00 each hour. Find the product 36\left(1\frac{6}{7}\ +\ 2\frac{1}{2}\right)36(1 7 6 ​ + 2 2 1 ​ ) using the distributive property. Describe what each individual term in the expression represents in the context of this situation after you distribute the 36, AND describe what the final result represents. Show your work, and explain

Answer:

The product of 4 and m is -8.

Without numbers: The product of four and the variable m is negative eight.

Step-by-step explanation:

4m means m is multiplied by 4. The result of the multiplication operation is called a "product." The equal sign translates to "is".

The sentence 'Four times a certain number equals negative eight' corresponds to the equation 4m = -8, indicating that multiplying a number by four yields negative eight.

The sentence to represent the equation 4 m = -8 might be: "Four times a certain number equals negative eight." This sentence encapsulates the equation by specifying that the product of the number m and four is equivalent to negative eight, implying that m will have a negative value since it is equal to a negative number when multiplied by a positive.

Answer:

A =  84 inches^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula for the area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 b*h

Let's substitute what we know

We need the units to be the same

Convert 7 ft to inches

1 ft = 12 inches

Multiply both sides by 7

7 ft = 84 inches

A = 1/2 *84*2

A =  84 inches^2

Answer:

The answer is the proof so it is long.

The question doesn't define u(n), but it's not hard to guess.

Group G with operation ∘

For all a and b and c in G:

1) identity: e ∈ G, e∘a = a∘e = a,

2) inverse: a' ∈ G, a∘a' = a'∘a = e,

3) closed: a∘b ∈ G,

4) associative: (a∘b)∘c = a∘(b∘c),

5) (optional) commutative: a∘b = b∘a.

Define group u(n) for n prime is the set of integers 0 < i < n with operation multiplication modulo n.

If n isn't prime, we exclude from the group all integers which share factors with n.

Identity: e = 1. Clearly 1∘a = a∘1 = a. (a is already < n).

Closed: u(n) is closed for n prime. We must show that for all a, b ∈ u(n), the integer product ab is not divisible by n, so that ab ≢ 0 (mod n). Since n is prime, ab ≠ n. Since a < n, b < n, no factors of ab can equal prime n. (If n isn't prime, we already excluded from u(n) all integers sharing factors with n).

Inverse: for all a ∈ u(n), there is a' ∈ u(n) with a∘a' = 1. To find a', we apply Euclid's algorithm and write 1 as a linear combination of n and a. The coefficient of a is a' < n.

Associative and Commutative:

(a∘b)∘c = a∘(b∘c) because (ab)c = a(bc)

a∘b = b∘a because ab = ba.

Answer:

y = 3x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is helpful to be acquainted with the parts of at least a couple of different forms of the equation for a line.

You are given the equation of a line in "slope-intercept" form. It looks like ...

... y = mx + b . . . . . . . where m=-1/3 and b=-1

The coefficient of x, which is m, is the slope of the line. That is -1/3 for the given line.

The relationship between the slopes of perpendicular lines is that they multiply to give -1. We say each is the opposite reciprocal of the other. If we let "m" stand for the slope of the perpendicular line, it satisfies the equation ...

...(m)(-1/3) = -1

... m = -1/(-1/3) = 3 . . . . . the slope of the perpendicular line is 3.

____

Here's where another form of the equation for a line is useful. We can write the "point-slope" form* as ...

... y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . for a line of slope m through point (h, k)

We want our line of slope = 3 to go through the point (1, 5), so its equation can be ...

... y = 3(x -1) +5 . . . . . . . variation of "point-slope" form

The given equation is in slope-intercept form, and the question asks for "the" equation of the line, so we probably should write our answer in the same form as the given equation. We can do this by eliminating the parentheses and simplifying the equation we have.

... y = 3x -3 +5 . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

... y = 3x +2 . . . . . . collect terms

The graph shows our result is at least plausible: it looks like it is perpendicular, and it goes through the given point.

*Comment on point-slope form

Usually, you will see "point-slope" form written as ...

... y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . . standard version of "point-slope" form

When our intent is to use this form to get to slope-intercept form, it is more convenient to add k to this equation to get ...

... y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . . occasionally useful version
