For this case we must indicate an expression equivalent to:

By definition we have that the distributive property establishes that:

Then, applying the property to the given expression we have:

Thus, an equivalent expression is:

ANswer:

a - b ≤ 25
b - yes
c - 26 ( draw the picture for your explanation)
The minimum distance will be along a perpendicular line to the river that passes through the point (7,5)
4x+3y=12
3y=-4x+12
y=-4x/3+12/3
So a line perpendicular to the bank will be:
y=3x/4+b, and we need it to pass through (7,5) so
5=3(7)/4+b
5=21/4+b
20/4-21/4=b
-1/4=b so the perpendicular line is:
y=3x/4-1/4
So now we want to know the point where this perpendicular line meets with the river bank. When it does y=y so we can say:
(3x-1)/4=(-4x+12)/3 cross multiply
3(3x-1)=4(-4x+12)
9x-3=-16x+48
25x=51
x=51/25
x=2.04
y=(3x-1)/4
y=(3*2.04-1)/4
y=1.28
So now that we know the point on the river that is closest to Avery we can calculate his distance from that point...
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2
d^2=(7-2.04)^2+(5-1.28)^2
d^2=38.44
d=√38.44
d=6.2 units
Since he can run at 10 uph...
t=d/v
t=6.2/10
t=0.62 hours (37 min 12 sec)
So it will take him 0.62 hours or 37 minutes and 12 seconds for him to reach the river.
Answer
Find out the how much did each student recieve .
To prove
Let us assume that each student earned in the bake sell be x .
As given
Three students earned $48.76 at the bake sell.
The students split the earnings evenly i.e earning is divided into three equal parts .
Than the equation becomes

Solving the above
x = $16.25(approx)
Therefore the each student recieve $16.25(approx) .
Hence proved
