The answer should be A, the sum of p and q.
Plug in a value for p and q to figure this out.
Here, I'm using 4 for p and 5 for q.
(x+4)(x+5)
x^2+5x+4x+20
x^2+9x+20
Here, the coefficient for the x term is 9 and 9 is the sum of p and q (4+5).
im sorry but i know x=6 if that helps
I would first add 5 and 2 together, then multiply that by 3. Finally you would subtract the 1. After solving for what is inside the parentheses you would multiply it by 2 for your final answer.
2•(3(5+2)-1)
2•(3(7)-1)
2•(21-1)
2•(20)
40
Ok let us assume x= the width of the table top
the length is 4 times the width meaning we are multiplying 4 and the width
which is x
length = 4x
your first equation would be the following:
4x+4x+x+x= whatever the perimeter is
if you drew a rectangle it would help you understand the above.
this represents the perimeter of the tabletop because we know the width is x. if you drew the rectangle there wouldn't be 1 width. opposite to the width is another line. same with the length. the length is 4x again there are 2 because in a rectangle there are 2 sets of parallel lines. that is why your equation would be 4x+4x+x+x= whatever the perimeter is- you could simplify this equation and write:
10x= whatever the perimeter is
x basically means 1x but in math we generally don't write that because we tend to write most things in simplest for.
hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=10
x=10-y
x=10-5
x=5
3y= -3x+30
3(10-y)= -3(10-y)+30
30-3y= -30+3y+30
30+30-30=6y
30=6y
y=5
