(3x2)(−2x4) = 3(−2)x2∙4 = 6x8 can you find whats wrong with this problem

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the equal sign

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The final correct result is:[tex](3x^2)(-2x^4) = -6x^6[/tex]

Given that:

The expression: [tex](3x^2)(-2x^4) = 3(-2)x^{2\times4} = 6x^8[/tex]

The error is in the second step of the simplification:

[tex](3x^2)(-2x^4) = 3(-2)x^{2\times4} \\(3x^2)(-2x^4) = 6x^8[/tex]

[tex](3x^2)(-2x^4) = 3(-2)x^{2\times4} = 6x^8[/tex]

The second step is incorrect. The correct rule for multiplying powers with the same base is to add the exponents, not multiply them.

Here, add the power of x is 2 and 4, that is,

2 + 4 = 6

And multiply the coefficient of x as:

The coefficient of x are 3 and (-2).

So, the multiplication as:

3 × (-2) = -6

The correct simplification should be:

[tex](3x^2)(-2x^4) = 3\times(-2) \times x^{2+4}\\(3x^2)(-2x^4) = -6x^6[/tex]

So, the multiplication as:

3 × (-2) = -6

So, the final correct result is:

[tex](3x^2)(-2x^4) = -6x^6[/tex]

Hence, the error occupied in second step.

Its A because the ratio from females to males ls 5:3

Answer:

B. He should focus on females because the ratio of females to males is 5:2.

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the graph, you can see that there are 25 females and 10 males. The ratio for this is 25:10, but we can simplify by dividing both sides by 5! 25/5=5, and 10/5=2, so the simplified ratio of 25:10 is 5:2. If you look at all of the answer choices, you really don't have to look at the words a lot; there's only one choice that includes the ratio 5:2. That choice is B, so B is the answer!

E.Each person gets 5 slices of French toast.

The answer is "A" because you would have everyone get 2 pieces and you would give everyone 2/5 which would evenly divide 12 pieces

Suppose that y is directly proportional to x, and y = −16 when x = −2. What is the constant of proportionality?

A) −8
B) −
1
8
C) 1
8
D) 8

Answers

Answer:

In the given expression the constant of proportionality is  k = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity P is said to be directly proportional to Q if they vary in proportion to each other.


Here, P ∝ Q ⇔  P = kQ : k = Proportionality Constant


Now, here given y ∝ x   and x =  -2, y = -16

Now, y ∝ x ⇒  y =  kxor, (-16)   = k (-2) or, k = 16/2  = 8 ⇒ k = 8So, for k = 8, y ∝ x 

Hence, in the given expression the constant of proportionality is  k = 8.
