\huge\text{Hey there!}

\huge\textbf{What is the distributive formula?}

\mathsf{a(b + c)}

\mathsf{= a(b) + a(c)}

\mathsf{= ab + ac}

\huge\textbf{What is the equation?}

\mathsf{2(-2 - 4)}

\huge\textbf{What are we simplifying?}

\mathsf{2(-2 - 4)}

\mathsf{= 2(-2) + 2(-4)}

\mathsf{= -4 - 8}

\mathsf{= -12}

\huge\textbf{How are you going to translate to}\\\\\huge\textbf{easier terms?}

\mathsf{2(-2 - 4)}

\mathsf{= 2(-6)}

\mathsf{= -12}

\huge\textbf{What is the ANSWER to the question?}

\huge\boxed{\mathsf{-12}}\huge\checkmark

\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve in parentheses.

2(-2-4)

=

2(-6)

Next, multiply 2 by -6.

Which equals -12.

So therefore using the distributive property shown above, the answer would be -12.

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

5x+8x+2x =180

Combine like terms

15x = 180

Divide by 15 on each side

15x/15 =180/15

x=12

A construction firm is trying to decide which of two models of a crane to purchase. Model A costs $90,000 and requires $4,000 pe
liraira [26]
Let's say hmm let's use the figures in thousands, so
model A costs 90 + 4 per year, so... ok.. after "t" years, then the cost for model A is then 90 + 4*t, or A = 90 + 4t.

now, model B is 70 + 10 per year, so,... after "t" years, model B is then
B = 70 + 10 * t, or B = 70 + 10t.

if we were to assume A < B, namely the cost of A is less than B, what would the years be? namely, what's "t"?

\bf A\ \textless \ B\implies 90+4t \ \textless \  70 + 10t\implies 90-70 \ \textless \  10t-4t&#10;\\\\\\&#10;20 \ \textless \  6t\implies \cfrac{20}{6}\ \textless \ t\implies \cfrac{10}{3}\ \textless \ t\implies 3\frac{1}{3}\ \textless \ t&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{3 years and }\frac{1}{3}\textit{ or \underline{3 years and 4 months}}

after that period, then A becomes cheaper than B.
