Answer:
The simplified form would ve -19 - 4x
Step-by-step explanation:
Before we combine anything, we first must expand the expression by distributing the -3 to the terms in the parenthesis.
-7 - 3(4 - 2x) - 10x
-7 - 12 + 6x - 10x
Now we can combine the terms with and without variables.
-19 - 4x
Consider number 17. You know that
17=9+8.
Then for negative numbers you have the same rule (with respect to sign -):
-17=(-9)+(-8).
Since (-9)+9=9+(-9)=9-9=0, you have that
-17+9=(-9)+(-8)+9=(-9+9)+(-8)=0+(-8)=-8.
Answer: -17=(-9)+(-8).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the associative property for addition. In informal language, it says under addition, the order of the addition is not critical.
The ratio of length to width would change slightly, before adding on to the dimensions, the ratio is 6 : 2.5 with the added dimensions, the ratio would change to 8 : 4.5 with simple math you can see that 2.5 is less then half of 6 while 4.5 is more then half of 8
