30000L is larger than 3kL
The distributive property....u r basically multiplying the number outside of the parenthesis by everything inside the parenthesis...this gets rid of the parenthesis.
3(-4x + 8)...distribute the 3 thru the parenthesis
(3 * -4x) + (3 * 8) ...take that 3 and multiply it by every number in the parenthesis..to get rid of the parenthesis
-12x + 24 <===
4(x - 6y) =
(4 * x) - (4 * 6y) =
4x - 24y <===
6(5 - q) =
(6 * 5) - (6 * q) =
30 - 6q <===
1/2(c - 8) =
(1/2 * c) - (1/2 * 8) =
1/2c - 4 <===
-3(5 - b) =
(-3 * 5) - (-3 * b) =
-15 - (-3b) =
-15 + 3b <===
(d + 2)(-7)....re-arrange
-7(d + 2) =
(-7 * d) + (-7 * 2) =
-7d + (-14) =
-7d - 14 <===
The answer isw c because when i first looked at it i was like its a then i soveled the problem out
Answer:
4 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the cyclists is the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle. The hypotenuse is √2 times the length of the legs in such a triangle, so each cyclist must have ridden 8 miles in 2 hours.
Their speed is (8 mi)/(2 h) = 4 mi/h.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Consider an isosceles right triangle with leg lengths 1. Then the Pythagorean theorem tells us the length of the hypotenuse is ...
c² = a² +b² . . . square of hypotenuse is sum of squares of legs
c² = 1² +1² . . . . both legs are 1 in our example triangle
c² = 2
c = √2
That is, the hypotenuse is √2 times the leg length.
