The distributive property allows us to simplify equations.

The following is a simple problem that shows how we can use the distributive property:

A florist is selling flower arrangements with 4 lilies and 3 roses. If John bought 5 arrangements, how many of each flower would he have?

5 x (4 + 3)

The distributive property says that we can distribute the 5 and simplify this to 5 x 4 + 5 x 3. By multiplying you would get 20 lilies and 15 roses or 35 flowers total.

If we do not distribute the 5, we would get 5 x 4 + 3. 20 lilies and 3 roses or 23 flowers total.

The distributive property works the exact same way with subtraction, but remember, you only distribute to the numbers inside the parentheses. Variables can be distributed the same way.


with subtractions, one must take great care. For example 5-3*(6-2) = 5-3*6+3*2. Note that the rule that the product of two negatives is a positive was used. A common mistake is to say that the expression equals 5-3*6-3*2.

While the question is vague, this may help.

The Order of Operations is the priority in which you perform operations in mathematics. The order of operation is:

- Do operations within parentheses first,
- Exponents
- Multiplication and Division, Left to right, as you encounter them
- Addition and Subtraction, Left to right, as you encounter them

An example:

5(4+2)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 =

Work the parentheses, and keep everything else unchanged: 5(4+2)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 =5 (6)2(4) - 3(3)(8)2

Now your exponents: 5 (6)2(4) - 3(3)(8)2 = 5 (36)(4) - 3(3)(64)

Now Multiplication, Left to right: 5 (36)(4) - 3(3)(64) = 720 - 576

Now Addition and Subtraction, left to right: 720 - 576 = 144

Until you get used to it, feel free to do only one operation at a time, even if multiple instances appear in the same line, such as working with our parentheses in the example above:

5(4+2)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 = 5(6)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 =5(6)2(4) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 and so on.

In triangle XYZ, A is the midpoint of XY, B is the midpoint for YZ, and C is the midpoint of XZ. Also,
azamat

Answer:

Perimeter of Δ ABC = 7 + 8 + 9 = 24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In  triangle Δ XYZ ,

A is the mid point of XY

B is the midpoint of YZ

C is the mid point of XZ

AY = 7

BZ =8

XZ = 18

The mid - point theorem states that,

The segment formed by connecting two mid - points of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half as long

AY = 7 then BC = 7 cm

BZ = 8 then AC = 8 cm

XY = 18 then AB = 9 cm

Perimeter of Δ ABC = 7 + 8 + 9 = 24 cm

Best Answer: 2 LiCl = 2 Li + Cl2
mass Li = 56.8 mL x 0.534 g/mL=30.3 g
moles Li = 30.3 g / 6.941 g/mol=4.37
the ratio between Li and LiCl is 2 : 2 ( or 1 : 1)

moles LiCl required = 4.37
mass LiCl = 4.37 mol x 42.394 g/mol=185.3 g


Cu + 2 AgNO3 = Cu/NO3)2 + 2 Ag
the ratio between Cu and AgNO3 is 1 : 2
moles AgNO3 required = 4.2 x 2 = 8.4 : but we have only 6.3 moles of AgNO3 so AgNO3 is the limiting reactant
moles Cu reacted = 6.3 / 2 = 3.15
moles Cu in excess = 4.2 - 3.15 =1.05

N2 + 3 H2 = 2 NH3
moles N2 = 42.5 g / 28.0134 g/mol=1.52
the ratio between N2 and H2 is 1 : 3
moles H2 required = 1.52 x 3 =4.56
actual moles H2 = 10.1 g / 2.016 g/mol= 5.00 so H2 is in excess and N2 is the limiting reactant
moles NH3 = 1.52 x 2 = 3.04
mass NH3 = 3.04 x 17.0337 g/mol=51.8 g
moles H2 in excess = 5.00 - 4.56 =0.44
mass H2 in excess = 0.44 mol x 2.016 g/mol=0.887 g
