Which of the following is equivalent to the algebraic expression below after it has been fully simplified?

4k(k−3m)−(2k2−5km+m2)4k(k - 3m) - (2k^2 - 5km + m^2)
Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2k2−7km−m22k^2 - 7km - m^2

Cevap

The fully simplified expression is 2k2−7km−m22k^2 - 7km - m^2.
The correct expression is derived by first multiplying 4k4k by both terms in (k−3m)(k - 3m) to get 4k2−12km4k^2 - 12km. Next, distributing the negative sign through the trinomial changes the signs to yield −2k2+5km−m2-2k^2 + 5km - m^2. Finally, grouping and combining like terms yields 4k2−2k2=2k24k^2 - 2k^2 = 2k^2 and −12km+5km=−7km-12km + 5km = -7km. The −m2-m^2 term has no like terms to combine with, leaving it unchanged. The final simplified form is 2k2−7km−m22k^2 - 7km - m^2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute 4k4k into the binomial (k−3m)(k - 3m).
4k2−12km4k^2 - 12km
Expanding the first part of the expression removes the first set of parentheses.
2
Distribute the negative sign across the trinomial (2k2−5km+m2)(2k^2 - 5km + m^2).
−2k2+5km−m2-2k^2 + 5km - m^2
Subtracting a polynomial requires reversing the sign of every term inside the parentheses.
3
Group and combine all like terms.
(4k2−2k2)+(−12km+5km)−m2=2k2−7km−m2(4k^2 - 2k^2) + (-12km + 5km) - m^2 = 2k^2 - 7km - m^2

Cevap: (−3)×(−4)−10(-3) \times (-4) - 10

Cevap

The expression (−3)×(−4)−10(-3) \times (-4) - 10 produces a positive integer.
The expression (−3)×(−4)−10(-3) \times (-4) - 10 evaluates to a positive integer because the product of −3-3 and −4-4 is a positive 1212, and subtracting 1010 from 1212 leaves 22.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the first expression: −5+(−2)-5 + (-2).
−5+(−2)=−7-5 + (-2) = -7.
Adding a negative integer to a negative integer results in a smaller negative integer.
2
Evaluate the second expression: 4−3×24 - 3 \times 2.
4−6=−24 - 6 = -2.
Following the order of operations (PEMDAS), multiplication is performed before subtraction.
3
Evaluate the third expression: −∣−8∣+5-|-8| + 5.
−8+5=−3-8 + 5 = -3.
The absolute value of −8-8 is positive 88. The negative sign outside makes it −8-8. Adding 55 results in a negative integer.
4
Evaluate the fourth expression: (−3)×(−4)−10(-3) \times (-4) - 10.
12−10=212 - 10 = 2.
Multiplying two negative integers yields a positive integer (1212). Subtracting 1010 from 1212 leaves a positive integer.

The simplified expression is 9a109a^{10}.
The correct result is found by distributing the exponent of 2 to both factors inside the parentheses. The coefficient 3 is squared to become 9, and the exponent 5 is multiplied by 2 to become 10, resulting in 9a109a^{10}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Apply the power of a product rule by distributing the outer exponent to both the numerical coefficient and the variable inside the parentheses.
32⋅(a5)23^2 \cdot (a^5)^2
When a product is raised to a power, each independent factor inside the parentheses must be raised to that power.
2
Simplify the numerical coefficient by calculating its square.
9⋅(a5)29 \cdot (a^5)^2
The exponent 2 indicates multiplying the base by itself: 3×3=93 \times 3 = 9.
3
Apply the power of a power rule to the variable by multiplying the inner exponent by the outer exponent.
9a109a^{10}
According to exponent laws, (xm)n=xm⋅n(x^m)^n = x^{m \cdot n}, so the new exponent is 5×2=105 \times 2 = 10.

An inventory manager calculates the total number of pallets, hh, that can be stored in a warehouse section using the following linear equation:

3h+6=453h + 6 = 45

What is the value of hh?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 13

Cevap

The correct value for the variable is 13.
The correct value is found by performing the inverse operations in the correct order. First, subtract 6 from both sides to get 3h = 39. Then, divide both sides by 3 to find that h = 13.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Isolate the term with the variable by subtracting 6 from both sides of the equation.
3h=45−63h = 45 - 6
3h=393h = 39
This removes the constant term from the left side, keeping the equation balanced.
2
Solve for hh by dividing both sides of the equation by 3.
h=393h = \frac{39}{3}
h=13h = 13
Dividing by the coefficient of the variable isolates hh completely.

A specialized aerospace alloy is manufactured by combining titanium and aluminum in a ratio of 7:47:4 by weight. If a batch of this alloy contains 140 kilograms140\text{ kilograms} of titanium, what is the total weight of the batch?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 220 kg220\text{ kg}

Cevap

The total weight of the batch is 220 kg220\text{ kg}.
The given ratio indicates the alloy consists of 77 parts titanium and 44 parts aluminum, making 1111 parts in total. Because the 77 parts of titanium weigh 140 kg140\text{ kg}, each single part weighs 20 kg20\text{ kg} (140÷7140 \div 7). Multiplying the 1111 total parts by 20 kg20\text{ kg} per part results in a total weight of 220 kg220\text{ kg}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the weight of a single ratio part based on the known titanium content.
140 kg÷7 parts=20 kg per part140\text{ kg} \div 7\text{ parts} = 20\text{ kg per part}
Since the ratio of titanium to aluminum is 7:47:4, the 140 kg140\text{ kg} corresponds exactly to the 77 parts of titanium.
2
Calculate the total number of parts in the alloy mixture.
7 parts (titanium)+4 parts (aluminum)=11 total parts7\text{ parts (titanium)} + 4\text{ parts (aluminum)} = 11\text{ total parts}
The total weight is composed of both the titanium and the aluminum parts combined.
3
Multiply the total number of parts by the weight of a single part.
11 parts×20 kg per part=220 kg11\text{ parts} \times 20\text{ kg per part} = 220\text{ kg}
This yields the combined weight of the entire batch.

What is the final value of pp?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The correct value for the variable is 3.
The correct answer is 3. Distributing the terms on both sides yields 4p−10+3p=−3p+24+2p−104p - 10 + 3p = -3p + 24 + 2p - 10. Combining like terms results in 7p−10=−p+147p - 10 = -p + 14. Adding pp to both sides and adding 10 to both sides gives 8p=248p = 24. Dividing by 8 isolates the variable, resulting in p=3p = 3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the coefficients to remove parentheses on both sides of the equation.
4p−10+3p=−3p+24+2p−104p - 10 + 3p = -3p + 24 + 2p - 10
To simplify the equation, all terms inside parentheses must be multiplied by their outer coefficients. Note that 23×6p=4p\frac{2}{3} \times 6p = 4p and 23×−15=−10\frac{2}{3} \times -15 = -10.
2
Combine like terms on each side of the equation independently.
7p−10=−p+147p - 10 = -p + 14
Combining variable terms and constant terms on the same side simplifies the equation structure before isolating the variable.
3
Move all variable terms to one side of the equation.
8p−10=148p - 10 = 14
Adding pp to both sides cancels the −p-p on the right side, grouping all unknowns on the left.
4
Isolate the variable by moving constants to the other side and dividing.
8p=24⇒p=38p = 24 \Rightarrow p = 3
Adding 10 to both sides moves the constant, and dividing both sides by the coefficient 8 solves for pp.

A renewable energy company is installing a chain-link fence around a newly constructed rectangular solar farm. The solar farm measures 120120 yards in length and 8585 yards in width. The fence will enclose the entire perimeter, with the exception of two access gates that each measure 55 yards wide. If the fencing material costs $22\$22 per linear yard, what is the total cost of the fencing material in dollars?

Cevap: 8800

Cevap

The total cost of the fencing material is 8800 dollars.
The total perimeter of the solar farm is 410410 yards (120+120+85+85120 + 120 + 85 + 85). Subtracting the 1010 yards for the two 55-yard gates leaves 400400 yards of fencing to be installed. Multiplying 400400 yards by the $22\$22 per yard cost gives a total of $8800\$8800.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total perimeter of the rectangular solar farm.
P=2×(120+85)=2×205=410P = 2 \times (120 + 85) = 2 \times 205 = 410 yards.
The perimeter formula for a rectangle is P=2(L+W)P = 2(L + W), which represents the total boundary length before any openings are considered.
2
Determine the total width of the two access gates.
2×5=102 \times 5 = 10 yards.
Since there are two gates and each is 55 yards wide, their combined width must be subtracted from the total perimeter.
3
Calculate the actual length of fencing needed.
410−10=400410 - 10 = 400 yards.
The fencing covers the perimeter minus the space left open for the access gates.

What is the value of the exponent kk?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3; k=3; k = 3; three

Cevap

3
First, the numerator (3x4)2(3x^4)^2 simplifies to 9x89x^8. Substituting this back yields 9x89xk=x5\frac{9x^8}{9x^k} = x^5. The coefficients cancel out, and applying the quotient rule to the variables gives x8−k=x5x^{8-k} = x^5. By equating the exponents, we get 8−k=58 - k = 5, which means k=3k = 3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Apply the power of a product rule to the numerator.
(3x4)2=32⋅(x4)2=9x8(3x^4)^2 = 3^2 \cdot (x^4)^2 = 9x^8
When raising a product to a power, you must raise every factor inside the parentheses to that power.
2
Substitute the simplified numerator back into the equation and simplify the numerical coefficients.
9x89xk=x8xk\frac{9x^8}{9x^k} = \frac{x^8}{x^k}
The coefficients 99\frac{9}{9} cancel out to 1, making it easier to isolate the variable base.
3
Apply the quotient rule for exponents on the left side of the equation.
x8xk=x8−k\frac{x^8}{x^k} = x^{8-k}
When dividing exponential expressions with the same base, you subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator.
4
Set the resulting exponent equal to the exponent on the right side of the original equation and solve for kk.
8−k=5⇒k=38 - k = 5 \Rightarrow k = 3
Since the bases on both sides of the equation are the same (xx), their exponents must be equal.

A homeowner is planning to enclose a rectangular residential lot with a new privacy fence. The lot has a length of 2020 yards and a width of 4545 feet. The fencing material costs $12.50\$12.50 per linear foot. If the homeowner needs to leave a 66-foot opening for a driveway gate, what will be the total cost of the fencing materials?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $2,550\$2,550

Cevap

The total cost of the fencing materials is $2,550\$2,550.
The correct answer is found by first converting all units to feet. The length of 2020 yards is equal to 6060 feet. The total perimeter of the rectangular lot is 2×(60+45)=2102 \times (60 + 45) = 210 feet. Subtracting the 66-foot gap for the gate leaves 204204 linear feet of fencing required. Multiplying this by the cost of $12.50\$12.50 per foot yields a total cost of $2,550\$2,550.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the length of the lot from yards to feet.
20 yards×3=60 feet20 \text{ yards} \times 3 = 60 \text{ feet}
All measurements must be in the same unit (feet) because the fencing cost is given per linear foot.
2
Calculate the total perimeter of the rectangular lot.
P=2×(60+45)=2×105=210 feetP = 2 \times (60 + 45) = 2 \times 105 = 210 \text{ feet}
The fencing will go around the entire boundary of the rectangular lot.
3
Subtract the length of the driveway gate from the total perimeter.
210−6=204 feet210 - 6 = 204 \text{ feet}
Fencing material is not needed for the space where the gate will be installed.
4
Calculate the total cost by multiplying the fencing length by the cost per foot.
204×$12.50=$2,550204 \times \$12.50 = \$2,550
The total cost is the required length in feet multiplied by the price per linear foot.

7t−20=3t+167t - 20 = 3t + 16
Simplifying each side individually makes it easier to balance the equation.
3
Subtract 3t3t from both sides of the equation.
4t−20=164t - 20 = 16
This groups all the variable terms on one side of the equation.
4
Add 20 to both sides and divide by 4.
4t=36  ⟹  t=94t = 36 \implies t = 9

Cevap

The product rule matches to -12a^6/b^3, the quotient rule matches to 2b^4/a^4, the power of a product rule matches to 16a^12b^20, and the negative exponent simplification matches to a^4/25.
Matching each pair correctly requires correctly identifying and applying four distinct fundamental laws of exponents: the product rule (adding exponents), the quotient rule (subtracting exponents), the power of a product rule (multiplying exponents), and the rules for evaluating zero and negative exponents.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Simplify (3a4b2)(−4a2b−5)(3a^4b^2)(-4a^2b^{-5}) using the product rule for exponents.
−12a6b−3-12a^6b^{-3}, which simplifies to −12a6b3\frac{-12a^6}{b^3}.
When multiplying expressions with the same base, add their exponents and multiply their numerical coefficients.
2
Simplify 16a3b68a7b2\frac{16a^3b^6}{8a^7b^2} using the quotient rule for exponents.
2a−4b42a^{-4}b^4, which simplifies to 2b4a4\frac{2b^4}{a^4}.
When dividing expressions with the same base, subtract the denominator's exponent from the numerator's exponent and divide the numerical coefficients.
3
Simplify (2a3b5)4(2a^3b^5)^4 using the power of a product rule.
16a12b2016a^{12}b^{20}.
When raising a product to a power, raise the numerical coefficient to that power and multiply each variable's exponent by the outer power.
4
Simplify (5a−2b0)−2(5a^{-2}b^0)^{-2} using the zero and negative exponent rules.
First, b0=1b^0 = 1. Then evaluate 5−2a45^{-2}a^4, which simplifies to a425\frac{a^4}{25}.
Any non-zero term raised to the zero power equals 1. Negative exponents indicate the reciprocal of the base.

A botanist has 120120 tulip bulbs, 168168 daffodil bulbs, and 216216 crocus bulbs. She wants to plant them in separate rows such that each row contains only one type of flower, and every row has the exact same number of bulbs. What is the greatest number of bulbs she can plant in a single row?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 24

Cevap

24
The greatest number of bulbs per row must perfectly divide the total count of each flower type without remainders. Therefore, we calculate the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 120, 168, and 216. The prime factorizations reveal the common factors are 232^3 and 313^1, which multiply to 24.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the mathematical operation required by the scenario.
The problem asks for the greatest number that divides 120, 168, and 216 evenly. This means finding the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).
Each row must have the same number of bulbs and only one flower type, meaning the row size must be a common divisor of all three total quantities.
2
Find the prime factorization of 120, 168, and 216.
120=23×3×5120 = 2^3 \times 3 \times 5, 168=23×3×7168 = 2^3 \times 3 \times 7, and 216=23×33216 = 2^3 \times 3^3.
Prime factorization is a systematic method to determine the common factors of multiple large numbers.
3
Identify the common prime factors and select their lowest powers.
The common prime factors are 2 and 3. Their lowest powers across the three numbers are 232^3 and 313^1.
The GCF is formed by multiplying the lowest powers of all prime factors that appear in every number's factorization.
4
Calculate the GCF.
23×3=8×3=242^3 \times 3 = 8 \times 3 = 24.
Multiplying the selected prime factors yields the greatest possible number of bulbs per row.

Cevap

The correct order from least to greatest is: 0.15×40−14.4÷1.20.15 \times 40 - 14.4 \div 1.2, followed by 10.5−3.2×2.510.5 - 3.2 \times 2.5, then (4.2−1.8)÷0.6+0.5(4.2 - 1.8) \div 0.6 + 0.5, and finally 2.4×0.5+1.8÷0.32.4 \times 0.5 + 1.8 \div 0.3.
Evaluating each expression using the correct order of operations yields final decimal values of 7.27.2, 2.52.5, −6.0-6.0, and 4.54.5. Arranging these values numerically from least to greatest provides the correct structural sequence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the first expression: 2.4×0.5+1.8÷0.32.4 \times 0.5 + 1.8 \div 0.3.
1.2+6=7.21.2 + 6 = 7.2
According to the order of operations, multiplication and division are performed left-to-right before addition.
2
Evaluate the second expression: 10.5−3.2×2.510.5 - 3.2 \times 2.5.
10.5−8.0=2.510.5 - 8.0 = 2.5
Multiplication must be performed before subtraction.
3
Evaluate the third expression: 0.15×40−14.4÷1.20.15 \times 40 - 14.4 \div 1.2.
6.0−12=−6.06.0 - 12 = -6.0
Perform multiplication and division first. Then subtract the larger value from the smaller value, resulting in a negative number.
4
Evaluate the fourth expression: (4.2−1.8)÷0.6+0.5(4.2 - 1.8) \div 0.6 + 0.5.
2.4÷0.6+0.5=4+0.5=4.52.4 \div 0.6 + 0.5 = 4 + 0.5 = 4.5
Operations inside parentheses take highest priority, followed by division, and finally addition.
5
Order the evaluated results from least to greatest.
−6.0<2.5<4.5<7.2-6.0 < 2.5 < 4.5 < 7.2
Arranging the numerical values based on their algebraic magnitude provides the final sequence.
