Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Ashley and Adam spent a total of 31 hours on their projects so: 3x+2+4x-6 = 31

3x+2+4x-6 = 31

7x-4 = 31

7x = 35

x = 5

Distributive property of <br>4x 567

Maksim231197 [3]

567 = 500+60+7

4*567 = 4*(500+60*7)

4*567 = 4*500 + 4*60 + 4*7 ... see note below

4*567 = 2000 + 240 + 28

4*567 = 2268

--------

note: multiply the outer term 4 by each term inside the parenthesis to use the distributive property. The general distributive property is a*(b+c) = a*b+a*c. This can be extended to a*(b+c+d) = a*b+a*c+a*d. You can have as many terms as you like inside the parenthesis.

Prove that sin20sin40sin60sin80=3/16

never [62]

We'll use the following properties of sine and cosine to prove this:

$sin(a)\cdot sin(b) = \frac12(cos(a-b) - cos(a+b))$

$cos(a)\cdot cos(b) = \frac12(cos(a+b) + cos(a-b))$

$cos(180+a) = cos(180-a)$

Then it's just a matter of filling it in...

sin20sin40 * sin60sin80 = 1/2(cos20 - cos60) * 1/2 (cos20 - cos140) =

1/8( cos40 + 1 - cos160 - cos120 - cos40 - cos80 + cos80 + cos200) =

1/8(1 - cos160 - cos120 + cos200) =

1/8(1 - cos160 - cos120 + cos160) =

1/8(1 - cos120 ) = 1/8( 1 + 1/2 ) = 3/16

To solve X/0.4 = 10, you would: Add 0.4 Subtract 0.4 Multiply 0.4 Divide by 0.4

Mrac [35]

Multiply by 0.4 on both sides to cancel the original 0.4 and change the 10
