1) 8y + 9 2) 2n + 4 3) 3d + 5h

rearrange the equations and combine like terms. combine the terms with the same variables and add / subtract them.

for example number 1:

9y - 11 + 20 - y

is the same thing as

9y - y + 20 - 11

and now you can easily combine them:

8y + 9

i hope this helps!

In the book 365 Penguins, the family received a new penguin each day. They received their first penguin on January 1st and this

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

181 penguins on the last day of June.

250th penguin on 7 September.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that in the book 365 Penguins, the family received a new penguin each day. They received their first penguin on January 1st and this pattern continued throughout this non-leap year.

First of all we need to find number of days in January to June.

January has 31 days, February has 28 days (Not a leap year), March has 31 days, April has 30 days, May has 31 days and June has 30 days.

$\text{Days from January to June}=31+28+31+30+31+30$

$\text{Days from January to June}=181$

Since penguin family receives 1 penguin each day, so 181 penguins will be in 181 days.

Therefore, the penguin family will have 181 penguins on the last day of June.

Now, we need to find the day, which will be on 250th day.

We already know that 181st day would be 30th June.

We know that July and August each has 31 days, so we will add 62 days to 181 that is $181+62=243$ .

243rd day would be 31st August.

Now, we will add 7 days to 243 days to get 250th day.

Since next month to August is September, therefore, the family will receive 250th penguin on 7 September.

Explain how to solve -4(1.75 + x) =18

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

first change any decimal to a whole. -4(175+x)=18. Then times -4 by 175 and x, -700+ 4x =18. Then add +700 to -700 which equals just 4x ,then add +700 to 18, which is 4x = 718. then divide both sides by 4 and estimate. x= 180
