When you are doing distributive property, it can only happen if a number or exponent is before the bracket. From this equation, you can solve for x like so:

7(x+5)-x=42

7x+35-x=42 -Using distributive property (Multiplication)

6x=7 -Collecting like terms.

x= 7/6 -The answer.

Therefore x would equate to 7/6.

Answer: 2(x2 + 10x + 16)

Step-by-step explanation: You need to factor the whole equation by 2. In other words divide each term by 2 and put parentheses to indicate factoring. You should get 2(x2 + 10x + 16)

What is the best way to convert metric units (I'm really bad at this...)
Vladimir [108]
Necesitas reconocer los múltiplos u submúltiplos del sistema métrico decimal si son lineales por cada nivel que avanzas multiplicas o divides con el 10
siempre y cuando la unidad de medida es el metro ese queda al centro.
Km Hm Dam m dm cm mm yo los ubico en escalera el metro queda al centro y de cualquier lugar que te posicionas,buscas a donde quieres convertir y revisas si vas a la derecha multiplicas por 10 o si vas a la izquierda divides entre 10 siempre y cuando sea un lugar a donde te vas a mover si son dos lugares es con el 100 por que 10x10 es 100 y si son tres lugares es con el 1000 porque es 10x10x10.
ejemplo 2000m convertirlos a Hm= 20 Hm dividí 2000 entre 100 porque me moví 2 lugares a la izquierda  otro ejem. 100 Dam convertirlos a cm=100000 porque 100x 1000 por que avance 3 lugares a la derecha

When a man observed a sobriety checkpoint conducted by a police​ department, he saw 671671 drivers were screened and 77 were arr
kifflom [539]

Answer:

P(\overline W)=0.98957

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of drivers Screened = 671

Number Arrested for Driving While Intoxicating = 7

If the W denotes the event of screening a driver and getting someone who is intoxicated.

The Probability of W, P(W)=\frac{7}{671}=0.01043

  • The Probability P(\overline W) is the probability of the event of screening a driver and getting someone who is not intoxicated. Simply put, it is the Probability of the Complement of W.

From Probability Theorem,

P(W)+P(\overline W)=1\\Since \: P(W)=0.01043\\0.01043+P(\overline W)=1\\P(\overline W)=1-0.01043\\=0.98957
