If Dave has 15 dollars and must spend 8 dollars of it on a book, then he will have 7 dollars left. If he then buys two of the same cards for his friends, the most he will be able to spend is half of 7 dollars for each of them, which will be 3 dollars and 50 cents.
15.28 I think it is the answer bc it said total so u add all the numbers. I added them and it gave me 15.28
Yes you can! Say you have 5(2 + x) + 3x. The answer would be 10+8x because when you use the distributive property you will end up getting 5*2 5*x and once you multiply, it's obvious 5 times 2 is 10 and 5 times x will equal 5x. Then you add 5x and 3x and get 8x. So, the simplified expression here is 10+8x. When you have this as an answer it's proving your answer right. You can without using the distributive property. We can have 10+5x+3x and it will be your simplified expression. It's the same thing with equations too.
THE ANSWER IS LYFE 3432423
Im pretty sure it would be doubling the length of each side
