Yes they are equivalent. This is because if you simplify each fraction : 288/12 and 240/10 they both equal 24.

Hey there!!
In order to solve this equation, we will have to use the distributive property.
What is distributive property?
We will need to distribute one term to the other terms preset.
Example : 4 ( 3x - 1 )
sing distributive property, we will have to distribute the term outside the parenthesis to the terms inside. In this case, we will have to distribute 4 to 3x and -1
( 4 × 3x ) + ( 4 × -1 )
12x + ( -4 )
= 12x - 4
This is after implementing the distributive property.
Now moving back onto the question
4 ( x + 5 ) = 3 ( x - 2 ) - 2 ( x + 2 )
Let us first solve 4 ( x + 5 )
Distribute 4 to x and 5
( 4 × x ) + ( 4 × 5 )
4x + 20
Now let's solve 3 ( x - 2 )
Distribute 3 to x and -2
( 3 × x ) + ( 3 × - 2 )
3x - 6
Solve for -2 ( x + 2 )
Distribute -2 to x and 2
( -2 × x ) + ( -2 × 2 )
-2x - 4
Now, let's get everything back together
4x + 20 = 3x - 6 - 2x - 4
Combine all the like terms
4x + 20 = x - 10
Adding 10 on both sides
4x + 20 + 10 = x - 10 + 10
4x + 30 = x
Subtracting 4x on both sides
4x - 4x + 30 = x - 4x
30 = -3x
Dividing by -3 on both sides
30 / -3 = -3x / -3
- 10 = x
<h2>x = - 10 </h2><h3>Hope my answer helps!</h3>
Given:
Vertices of a parallelogram ABCD are A(7,-4), B(-1,-4), C(-1,-12), D(7, -12).
To find:
Whether the parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square.
Solution:
Distance formula:

Using distance formula, we get




Similarly,



All sides of parallelogram are equal.


Both diagonals are equal.
Since, all sides are equal and both diagonals are equal, therefore, the parallelogram ABCD is a square.
We know that, a square is special case of rectangles and rhombus.
So, parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square. Therefore, the correct option is c.
Answer:
The identity property of multiplication, also called the multiplication property of one says that a number does not change when that number is multiplied by 1. Ex. 12x1=12
