Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property of multiplication is a very useful property that lets you simplify expressions in which you are multiplying a number by a sum or difference. The property states that the product of a sum or difference, such as 6(5 – 2), is equal to the sum or difference of the products – in this case, 6(5) – 6(2).

 

Remember that there are several ways to write multiplication. 3 x 6 = 3(6) = 3 • 6.

3 • (2 + 4) = 3 • 6 = 18.

 

Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition

 

The distributive property of multiplication over addition can be used when you multiply a number by a sum. For example, suppose you want to multiply 3 by the sum of 10 + 2.

 

3(10 + 2) = ?

 

According to this property, you can add the numbers and then multiply by 3.

3(10 + 2) = 3(12) = 36. Or, you can first multiply each addend by the 3. (This is called distributing the 3.) Then, you can add the products.

 

The multiplication of 3(10) and 3(2) will each be done before you add.

3(10) + 3(2) = 30 + 6 = 36. Note that the answer is the same as before.

 

You probably use this property without knowing that you are using it. When a group (let’s say 5 of you) order food, and order the same thing (let’s say you each order a hamburger for $3 each and a coke for $1 each), you can compute the bill (without tax) in two ways. You can figure out how much each of you needs to pay and multiply the sum times the number of you. So, you each pay (3 + 1) and then multiply times 5. That’s 5(3 + 1) = 5(4) = 20. Or, you can figure out how much the 5 hamburgers will cost and the 5 cokes and then find the total. That’s 5(3) + 5(1) = 15 + 5 = 20. Either way, the answer is the same, $20.

 

The two methods are represented by the equations below. On the left side, we add 10 and 2, and then multiply by 3. The expression is rewritten using the distributive property on the right side, where we distribute the 3, then multiply each by 3 and add the results. Notice that the result is the same in each case.

Answer:

93°, 89°, 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠1 and ∠4 are supplementary angles:

m∠1 + m∠4 = 180°; m∠1 = 93°

∠2 and ∠4 are vertical angles:

m∠2 = m∠4 = 87°

∠3 and ∠4 are supplementary angles:

m∠3 + m∠4 = 180°; m∠3 = 93°

jolli1 [7]
I believe the answer is C - 60 inches. 60 x 2 = 120, which is both lengths, and since he width is half the length, then 30 x 2 = 60. So 130 (length) + 60 (width) = 180. So 60 inches would be the maximum length for both sides.
