Answer:

$30$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

$5(x + 4) + 5(2 - x)$

Note: <em>The value of "x" is undefined because the given sum is not an equation. Thus, I will simplify the expression as much as possible. </em>

Let us simplify all the distributive properties stated in the expression.

Apply the distributive property rule <u>[a(b + c) = ab + ac]</u>

$\implies5(x) + 5(4) + 5(2) - 5(x)$

Since 5(x) is being subtracted from 5(x), we get:

$\implies 5(x) + 5(4) + 5(2) - 5(x)$

$\implies 5(4) + 5(2)$

Finally, let us simplify the sum of the product of (5 and 4) and (5 and 2).

$\implies20 + 10$

$\implies \boxed{30}$

Answer:

10,600

Step-by-step explanation:

The bacteria grew in 2 hours by 800. Divide that and that it by 400 per hour.

Since it is a proportional rate, we can assume that the rate continue through till midnight.

Since midnight is 12 hours after noon then the bacteria grow 400 (12)=4800.

We add this to the population at noon 5800+4800=10,600.

Answer:

total change in time when you used 5 clues is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

if you have 3 free clues, then 5-3 =2

That means you used 2 additional clues. 2 clues means 5*2 min reduced which is 10 mins reduced. The total time you have is x and the total time left is x-10 after you used the two clues.
