Answer: 7 (4 + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both number are divisible by 7, so we divide them both by 7.

28/7 = 4 and 42/7 =6  .  The answer is written as 7 (4 + 6)

Answer:

To express the sum of two numbers using distributive property, we factor out the highest common factor (HCF) of the two numbers (i.e. the greatest number that can divide the two numbers without remainder)

28 = 2 x 2 x 7

42 = 2 x 3 x 7

The HCF of 28 and 42 is given by 2 x 7 = 14

Therefore, we express 28 + 42 using distributive property thus: 14(2 + 3)

Four bags of peaches weigh 5.6 pounds, 3.9 pounds, 4.9 pounds, and 6.2 pounds.
Citrus2011 [14]

The answer is <u>5.25</u>

First, you need to list all of the numbers from least to greatest. Then, you remove the sides (first 3.9 and 6.2 being the least and the greatest numbers). You then have 4.9 and 5.6 so you need to add them together (getting 10.6) and divide your answer by 2 (getting 5.25).

Hope I helped and good luck :)

X=y+6<br> X+6y=20 <br><br><br> Solving systems of equations using substitution
vichka [17]
To get the answer we can subsittute first equation into second.
x+6y=20
y+6+6y=20
6+7y=20        /-6
7y=14        /:2
y=2
Now we can back substitute
x=y+6
x=2+6
x=8
Finally we get
x=8
y=2
