Question:

Expand and simplify 5(x - 1) - 3(x + 4)

Answer:

1.) Use the distributive property to solve this equation:

5(x - 1) = 5x - 5

3(x + 4) = 3x + 12

2.) Put it in the equation:

5x - 5 - 3x + 12

3.) Group them:

5x - 3x - 5 + 12

4.) Simplify:

2x - 7
which is the answer.



Hope this helped! :))

So first it’s 5x-5-3x-12( got this using distributive property)
Now we simplify by combining like terms so 5x-3x=2x
And -5-12=-17
Ending to be 2x-17

Answer:

2.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the length of segment AB and the length of segment BC. To find their midpoints, we can divide their length by 2.

Let's find the midpoint of AB.

  • Segment AB: 10 cm
  • Midpoint of AB: 10/2 = 5 cm

Next let's find the midpoint of BC.

  • Segment BC: 5.2 cm
  • Midpoint of BC: 5.2/2 = 2.6 cm

In order to find the difference between these midpoints, we can subtract the midpoint of AB by the midpoint of BC.

  • 5 cm - 2.6 cm = 2.4 cm

Therefore, the difference between the midpoints of AB and BC is 2.4 cm.
