Answer:

u= 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using BIDMAS

Step 1: Expand the bracket

9(u-2) + 1.5u=8.25

9u-18+1.5u=8.25

Step 2: collect like terms

9u+1.5u=8.25+18

10.5u=26.25

Step 3: Divide both sides by 10.5 to get u

u= \frac{26.25}{10.5}= 2.5

Kelsey solved the following equation:
Tems11 [23]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.

In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.

In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.

In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.

Can you show the work for (4x-4)(x-4)
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

4x² - 20x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4x - 4)(x - 4)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

4x(x - 4) - 4(x - 4) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 4x² - 16x - 4x + 16 ← collect like terms

= 4x² - 20x + 16
