First you have to put like terms together:
bf+af+be+ae
Now you factor the first two terms and then the two last terms:
f(b+a)+e(b+a)
Now you factor even further. By putting what is in parentheses by what is outside the parentheses:
(b+a)(f+e)
What you got is correct as mine is too. I hope this formula helps for future problems:
ax+bx+ac+bc=x(a+b)+c(a+b)
=(a+b)(x+c)
true transformation is a dilation
Answer: The b-value is the middle number, the number next to the X
Answer:
1/2 is the fractional part of cookie which was eaten by Dan.
Step-by-step explanation:
Dan has 2 1/2 cookies and ate 1/2, so we can just subtract the 2 1/2-1/2
which cancels out the 1/2, which is the fractional part.
He has 2 cookies left.
Let us assume the regular price of each tube of paint = r.
0.50 off each tube.
New price of each tube = r - 0.50.
She buy 6 tubes.
Total price of 6 tubes = 6×(r-0.50).
We are given total price = $84.30 .
Therefore, we can setup an equation
6×(r-0.50) = 84.30.
Distributing 6 over (r-0.50), we get
6r - 3.0 = 84.30
Adding 3.0 on both sides, we get
6r - 3.0+3.0 = 84.30+3.0
6r = 87.30
Dividing both sides by 6, we get
6r/6 = 87.30/6
r = 14.55
<h3>Therefore, required equation is
6(r-0.50) = 84.30 and the regular price of each tube of paint is $14.55.</h3>
