I'm not sure what you mean by the five step plan, but to get the answer, just think about the clues. 

     (c = number of cats)

      8 fewer dogs than cats can be written:    c - 8

since we know how many dogs there are:   c - 8 = 12

                Now, just solve for the variable:   c = 20

Hope I helped :)

16x-4 = 4x-28
16x-4x -4 =-28
12x-4=-28
12x=-28+4
12x=-24
12x/12=-24x/12

Use distributive property to write in expanded form 3(6+7)=
Kisachek [45]

Expanded form of 3( 6 + 7) is 3 \times 10+9 \times 1

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Need to use distributive property to write the expanded form of 3(6 + 7)

Let’s understand what is distributive property.

The distributive property states that multiplying a sum by a number gives the same result as multiplying each addend by the number and then adding the products together.

According to distributive property, for numbers a , b and c

a(b+c)=a \times b+b \times c  ----- eqn 1

3(6 + 7) can be rewritten as 3 ( 6 + 4 + 3 ) = 3 ( 10 + 3 )

Now in our case a = 3 , b = 10 and  c = 3  

On substituting the values of a , b and c in equation 1 we get

3(10+3)=3 \times 10+3 \times 3=3 \times 10+9 \times 1

So expanded form of 3( 6 + 7) is 3 \times 10+9 \times 1

5.<br> A number is squared, then multiplied by 6. The result is 54. What was the number?<br> Answer:
madam [21]

Answer:

± 3

Step-by-step explanation:

let n be the number then the number squared is n² , so

6n² = 54 ( divide both sides by 6 )

n² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )

n = ± \sqrt{9} = ± 3

That is the number is 3 or - 3
