12%=(3+10%*x)/(20+x)
x=30
add 30 pounds of the second alloy
you add them together to get 8/8 and that simplifies to 1
Answer:
1. 6n - 15
2. x + 10
3. -4d + 15
4. true, associative property
5. distributive, commutative
Step-by-step explanation:
1. distribute 3/4 into the parentheses, so multiply 3/4 * 8 and 3/4 * -20
2. distribute the 2 into the parentheses so multiply 2 * 3x and 2 * 5, then combine like terms
3. distribute -3 into the parentheses so -3 * 4D and -3 * -5 then add like terms
4. add like terms on both sides of the equal sign and you get 10x on both sides. this is the associative property because it doesn't matter what's inside or outside the parentheses you get the same answer no matter how you add them up
5. the first part is distributive because you distributed the three into the parentheses and the second part is commutative because you switch them around and you can get the same answer
