\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

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.

Help please!! How do I solve this
egoroff_w [7]
This is an exponential equation. We will solve in the following way. I do not have special symbols, functions and factors, so I work in this way
 2 on (2x) - 5 2 on x + 4=0 =>. (2 on x)2 - 5 2 on x + 4=0  We will replace expression ( 2 on x) with variable t => 2 on x=t  =. t2-5t+4=0 => This is quadratic equation and I solve this in the folowing way => t2-4t-t+4=0 =>     t(t-4) - (t-4)=0 => (t-4) (t-1)=0 => we conclude t-4=0 or t-1=0 => t'=4 and t"=1 now we will return t' => 2 on x' = 4 => 2 on x' = 2 on 2 => x'=2 we do the same with t" => 2 on x" = 1 => 2 on x' = 2 on 0 => x" = 0 ( we know that every number on 0 gives 1). Check 1: 2 on (2*2)-5*2 on 2 +4=0 =>                   2 on 4 - 5 * 4+4=0 => 16-20+4=0 =. 0=0 Identity proving solution. 
Check 2:   2 on (2*0) - 5* 2 on 0 + 4=0 => 2 on 0 - 5 * 1 + 4=0 => 
1-5+4=0 => 0=0  Identity provin solution.

The answer is 3/4! The number line is separated into four parts and it’s on the third line- so 3/4 of an inch!

For 5 points and brainliest to the best correct answer, find the missing measures.<br> Thank you
zzz [600]

Answer:

  • x = 7
  • y = 97°
  • z = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The markings on the figure show this to be a parallelogram. That means opposite sides are congruent. Because the sides are parallel, "alternate interior" angles are also congruent.

__

Angle y forms a linear pair with the one marked 83°, so is supplementary to it:

  y = 180°-83° = 97°

__

The angle marked y is an exterior angle to the triangle containing the angle marked (7x -5)°. As such, it is equal to the sum of the remote interior angles, the one marked (7x -5)° and the unmarked one that is congruent to (3x +32)°.

  (7x -5) +(3x +32) = 97 . . . . . angle relations in the left-side triangle

  10x +27 = 97 . . . . . . . collect terms

  10x = 70 . . . . . . . . subtract 27

 x = 7 . . . . . . . . divide by 10

__

The side marked Z is congruent to the opposite parallel side, so ...

  z = 19

__

The missing measures are ...

  • x = 7
  • y = 97°
  • z = 19

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can also find the value of y by adding up the interior angles of the right-side triangle. The one not shown there is "alternate interior" to the one marked (7x -5)°, hence has the same measure. This gives ...

  (7x -5) +(3x +32) +83 = 180

Subtracting 83° from both sides gives the equation we used above.

A bag contains tiles of different colors. Jackson randomly selects a tile from the bag and returns the tile to the bag after rec
quester [9]

Answer:

2/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer choices to this question do not make sense since probability is a measure that is always <= 1.0

Based on the number of times a particular colored tile is drawn we can assume that at the minimum there are 6 green, 20 red, 7 blue, 8 purple and 4 black tiles

Total number of tiles = 6 + 20 + 7 + 8 + 4 = 45

Probability of drawing a green tile = 6/45 = 2/15

What digit(s) can be in the one's place of a number that has 5 as a factor?
max2010maxim [7]
Any number that ends with a 0 or a 5 would be a multiple of 5 because as you multipy numbers by 5 you start to see a pattern in the ones place of 5,0,5,0,5,0,5,0,... And so on forever
