So you have to distribute the 2 into the 5x-7. So you will have 2(5x)-2(7) which equals 10x-14. So the answer is 10x-14

Answer:

10x-14

Step-by-step explanation:

The Distributive property says that a(b+c) = ab+ac

In my example you distribute the value on the outside to the things on the inside

In your problem, you have a two on the outside that needs to be distributed to a 5x and a -7.

1) two multiplied by 5x equals 10x giving you the first part of your answer!

2) two multiplied by -7 equals -14 giving you the second part of your answer!

Put the two values together to get 10x-14

Let me know if you have any further questions :)

Step-by-step explanation:

This would come out too 5 movies because 20-4= 16 16-2.99=5.3 but it is impossible to buy 5.3 movies so you would round it down to 5

Help please :) about to post more too

Answer:

Lets say test tubes = t, and beakers = b

1 pack of (t) is $4 less than 1 pack of (b)

Since i have no prior information we are going to use variables for this equation:

1t (1 pack of test tubes) is $4 less than 1b (1 set of beakers)

so to quantify the equation, we have 8t and 12b.

if b is a number that IS quantifiable such as $5 we can easily figure out this answer.

Lets use and example that 1 set of beakers is $8, if we multiply $8 by 12 (the number of sets of beakers), we get: 96

Using the same example, if 1t is $4 less than 1b than 1t = $4. So, if we multiply $4 by 8 (the amount of packs of test tubes), we get: 32

If you take both of those numbers: 96, and 32 and you divide them you get 3. so that means that 1t = 3b

Answer = 1t = 3b

This may not be correct due to the little information that i got however i hope that, that works out for you :)
