Answer:

The distributive property allows you multiply a sum in parenthesis by multiplying each addend separately, then add the products.

Step-by-step explanation:

How to use the distributive law example.

2(x+4) = 16

To use the distributive law in this example multiply 3 by all terms in the parenthesis. Multiply 2 and x, then 2 and 4 to open the parenthesis.

2x+8=16

That is how you use the distributive law.

To continue solving, subtract 8 from both sides.

2x+8-8=16-8

2x=8

Divide 2 from both sides.

2x/2=8/2

x=4

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.

Honey and Money are twin brothers. Mother wants to equally divide a rectangular shaped cake of 5cm wide and 6cm long. Find the l

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Length of rectangular cake = 5 cm

Breadth of rectangular cake = 6 cm

Area of rectangle = 5 cm × 6 cm =30 cm²

If cake is equally distributed between Honey and Money, then areas of two parts should be equal.

So, Amount of cake that Honey and money got $\frac{30}{2}=15$

Share of each (Honey and Money)=15 cm²

So, if the third cake if it was cut diagonally ,the cake must have some height.

Let the height of cake be H.

So, Height of third cake $=\sqrt{L^2+B^2+H^2}\\\\=\sqrt{5^2+6^2+H^2}\\\\=\sqrt{61+H^2}$

If , H=0 that is height is negligible having 0 thickness,

Then the Length of third cake, which is divided into two parts=√61=7.81 cm

2.3×10⁹=(1×10³)(2.3×10^n)

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2.3 × $10^{9}$ = (1 × 10³)(2.3 × $10^{n}$ )

(1 × 10³)(2.3 × $10^{n}$ ) = (1)(2.3) × (10³)( $10^{n}$ ) = 2.3 × $10^{3+n}$

2.3 × $10^{3+n}$ = 2.3 × $10^{9}$ ⇒ 3 + n = 9 ⇒ <em>n = 6</em>
