1) Use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses.
.. 3(6x) -3(5) -7(3x) -7(10) = 0
.. 18x -15 -21x -70 = 0 . . . . . . finish multiplying terms
.. -3x -85 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect like terms
.. -85 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .add 3x
.. -85/3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3
.. -28 1/3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . write as mixed number
2) 5 -(6 +9x) = 9 -(4x -1)
.. 5 -6 -9x = 9 -4x +1 . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property
.. -1 -9x = 10 -4x . . . . . . . . . collect like terms
.. -1 = 10 +5x . . . . . . . . . . . . add 9x
.. -11 = 5x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10
.. -11/5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
.. -2 1/5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . write as mixed number
There is no commutative property for subtraction and division because order does matter. 6 - 5 will not give you the same answer as 5 - 6.
Answer:
A. 33x + 92y
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the problem like this and combine like terms:
40x + 58y
- 7x + 34y
--------------------
33x + 92y
Or, set up the problem like this and combine like terms:
(40x + 58y) + (-7x + 34y)
40x + 58y - 7x + 34y
40x - 7x + 58y + 34y
33x + 92y
You should get the same answer with either method.
Answer:
x=32
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides by 4.
(x/4)*(4) = (8)*(4)
In addition to the information given in the question,
the answer is going to depend on ...
-- the dimensions of the dice
-- the height of the box.
