On the first day, she covered 1/2 mile, and on the last day, her distance was 1 1/4 miles. Converted, 1/2 becomes 2/4 and 1 and 1/4 becomes 5/4. Therefore, 2/4 plus how many 1/4 equals 5/4 indicates 3 additional 1/4 intervals. By adding one extra to the first day, we find 3 plus 1 equals 4. In total, it sums up to 4 days.

A tooth-whitening gel is to be tested for effectiveness. A group of 85 adults have volunteered to participate in the study. Of t
babunello [11817]

Response:

(a) 3, 5, and 6

Detailed explanation:

In this study, 43 participants will be treated with a gel containing tooth-whitening agents, while the remaining 42 will receive a placebo. Consequently, a placebo is in use.

The selection process for the 43 individuals receiving the gel will be random.

Post-experiment, the whiteness levels of both groups will be compared to analyze the gel's effect.

For true randomness in the experiment, options 3, 5, and 6 are applicable.

(b)

In order for the experiment to be double-blind, the evaluators analyzing the whiteness, as well as the participants, must not know which individuals were given the whitening gel versus the placebo.

The side length, s, of a cube is x – 2y. If V = s3, what is the volume of the cube? x3 – 6x2y + 12xy2 – 8y3 x3 + 6x2y + 12xy2 +
Leona [12618]

V = x³ - 6x²y + 12xy² - 8y³

V = (x - 2y)³

   = (x - 2y)(x - 2y)(x - 2y) ( start by expanding the first pair of factors )

   = (x² - 4xy + 4y²)(x - 2y) ( multiply the terms from the first group with those in the second )

   = x³ - 4x²y + 4xy² - 2x²y + 8xy² - 8y³ ( combine similar terms )

  = x³ - 6x²y + 12xy² - 8y³

Alicia, Brandon, and Charlene wanted to solve the proportion x/4.24 = 6.82/2.2 which of the students used a correct method?
Inessa [12570]
x/4.24 = 6.82/2.2
x = (4.24*6.82)/2.2
x = 1.36

Explanation:
Starting from x/4.24 = 6.82/2.2
, multiply both sides by 4.24 to obtain 4.24*6.82 = 2.2x

On a coordinate plane, 3 triangles are shown. Triangle B C D has points (1, 4), (1, 2), (5, 3). Triangle B prime C prime D prime
Svet_ta [12734]

The transformation sequence that maps ΔBCD to ΔB"C"D" is:

Reflection across the y-axis combined with a translation of 6 units in the x direction and -5 units in the y direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break down the reflection across the y-axis, horizontal translation, and vertical translation:

1. For point (x, y), reflecting it across the y-axis gives the point (-x, y).

2. Translating point (x, y) h units to the right results in (x + h, y), and h units to the left results in (x - h, y).

3. If point (x, y) is moved k units up, it becomes (x, y + k), and if moved k units down, it is (x, y - k).

∵ The vertices of triangle BCD are (1, 4), (1, 2), (5, 3).

∵ The vertices of triangle B'C'D' are (-1, 4), (-1, 2), (-5, 3).

∵ The x-coordinates of ΔB'C'D' have the same absolute value as those of ΔBCD but with opposite signs, indicating that ΔB'C'D' results from reflecting ΔBCD across the y-axis.

∵ The vertices of triangle B'C'D' are (-1, 4), (-1, 2), (-5, 3).

∵ The vertices of triangle B''C''D'' are (5, -1), (5, -3), (1, -2).

∵ The reflected x-coordinate -1 becomes +5, and -5 becomes +1,

thus the x-coordinates of triangle B'C'D' are increased by 6.

∵ The images of 4, 2, and 3 yield -1, -3, and -2 respectively,

hence subtracting 5 from the y-coordinates of triangle B'C'D' leads us to ΔB"C"D" through a translation of 6 units right and 5 units down ⇒ (x + 6, y - 5).

The transformation sequence that maps ΔBCD to ΔB"C"D" is:

Reflection across the y-axis combined with a translation of 6 units in the x direction and -5 units in the y direction.
