1) The expressions are not equivalent. When you expand and multiply 2(x + 3) it becomes 2x + 6. This is not equal to 3x + 5
2) They are equivalent. Again, expand and multiply the second expression. 2(3n + 4) becomes 6n + 8. This makes both sides equal.
3) They are equivalent. In the parentheses, you are adding 3 y's and a 2. This gives you 3y + 2. Now add the additional 3y that follows the closed parentheses. You'll have 6y + 2. Now both sides are equivalent.
Original position of the submarine below the Surface = -2 2/3= -8/3
Submarine at a depth of -2 2/3 feet descended by 5 1/2 feet.
So new position of the Submarine = 
To Reach the surface submarine must rise = 0-(-49/6)
As seen from the equation the two negative sign [(-)(-)] will change into a positive sign.
At the surface the position of the submarine = +49/6 feet
A) reflection over y-axis
b) dilation with scale factor 2 (non-rigid transformation)
c) reflection over x-axis
d) stretching across y-axis, non-rigid transformation
Hello :
<span>a single expression is : A = xy +zk
x : </span> width1 y : <span>length1
z : </span>width2 k : <span>length2
A : </span><span>the total area of the two rooms
note :
A1 = xy ........</span>area of the room 1<span>
A2 = zk </span>.......area of the room 2
you substitute 5y+41 for x and get 5y+41+3y=-15 then you simplify by doing 8y+41=-51 subtract 41 from each side and divide by 8 to get y alone. That's how you get 11.5 for your answer.
