<h2>Answer:</h2>

The answer is:

  • 19, because the number of books is 95 over 4 divided by 5 over 4
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Samantha has a shelf that is 95 over 4 inches wide.

i.e. thickness of shelf=95/4 inches

Also, each book is 5 over 4 inches thick

This means that the thickness of one book is: 5/4 inches

Now,let n be the total number of books that could be arranged in the shelf.

This means that:

\text{Number\ of\ books\ arranged}=\dfrac{\text{Thickness\ of\ shelf}}{\text{Thickness\ of\ one\ book}}

i.e.

n=\dfrac{\dfrac{95}{4}}{\dfrac{5}{4}}\\\\i.e.\\\\n=\dfrac{95\times 4}{5\times 4}\\\\i.e.\\\\n=\dfrac{95}{5}\\\\i.e.\\n=19

Namely, how many times does 5/4 go into 95/4?   well, let's just divide,

\bf \cfrac{\quad \frac{95}{4}\quad }{\frac{5}{4}}\implies \cfrac{95}{\underline{4}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{4}}{5}\implies \cfrac{95}{5}\implies 19

The Distributive Property allows you to say that 3(x − 1) = 3x −
Serga [27]

Answer:

3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the distributive property each value inside the parenthesis will be multiplied by the value outside the parenthesis.

In the expression 3(x - 1) it will look like:

(3 . x) - (3 . 1)

Then we multiply both value separately giving us:

3x - 3

So in conclusion it would be right to assume that.

3(x - 1) = 3x - 3
