So, -(a-3b) becomes -1(a-3b). Then, this becomes 5a-1a+3b. There is +3b because there is a double negative. So, 5-1=4, so your answer is 4a+3b. Pls brainliest
Let n represent the amount Colin earned on Sunday.
On Sat. he earned n/2; on Sun. he earned n; and on Friday he earned (1/2)(n/2).
Then n/2 + n + n/4 = $70
Mult. all terms by 4 to eliminate fractions:
2n + 4n + n = $280
7n = $280 => n = $40
Colin earned n/2, or $20, on Saturday; n, or $40, on Sunday; and n/4, or $10, on Friday.
Note that $20 and $40 and $10 add up to $70, as they must.
The volume of the rectangular prism can be express in standard polynomial as follows:
x³ + 12x² + 35x
<h3>How to find the volume of a rectangular prism?</h3>
volume of a rectangular prism = lwh
where
- l = length
- w = width
- h = height
Therefore,
let
height = x
width = x + 5
length = x + 5 + 2 = x + 7
Therefore,
volume = x(x + 5)(x + 7)
volume = x(x² + 7x + 5x + 35)
volume = x(x² + 12x + 35)
volume = x³ + 12x² + 35x

Answer: the cost of one medium sized jug is $60
the cost of one large sized jug is $10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one medium sized jug.
Let y represent the cost of one large sized jug.
Jack bought 2 medium sized jugs and 3 large sized jugs for 150 dollars. This means that
2x + 3y = 150 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Jill bought 4 medium jugs and 12 large jugs for 360 dollars. This means that
4x + 12y = 360 - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes
8x + 12y = 600
8x + 24y = 720
Subtracting, it becomes
- 12y = - 120
y = - 120/ - 12
y = 10
Substituting y = 10 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 3 × 10 = 150
2x + 30 = 150
2x = 150 - 30 = 120
x = 120/2 = 60
Divide 3.90 by 6: 3.9/6=.65. They each paid 65¢ :)
