If i am reading this question correctly it states "How many math assignments can he complete in 8 hours" leaving out the science assignments because it states he'd do them tomorrow its simple math. 8 divided by 2 which is 4 math assignments he can complete in 8 hours.

Answer: 4 exercises.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Gerald has 8 hours to complete a set of assignments if x is the number of math assignments and y is the number of physics assignments, we need to solve the equation:

2x + y = 8

Now, we know that Gerald decides to leave the science assignments for the next day, so on this first day we do not have physics assignments, which implies that y = 0

So now we have the equation 2x = 8

x = 8/2 = 4

x = 4

So we the maximum number that Gerald can complete in 8 hours is equal to 4 (in the situation in which he left the science assignments for the other day)

Use any order, any grouping to write an equivalent expression: 3(2x) + 4y(5) + (4 x 2 x z)
enyata [817]

Answer:

We conclude that the equivalent expression is:

3\left(2x\right)+4y\left(5\right)+\left(4\times \:2z\right)=6x+20y+8z

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

3\left(2x\right)+4y\left(5\right)+\left(4\times \:2z\right)

Remove parentheses: (a) = a

=3\times \:2x+4\times \:5y+4\times \:2z

Multiply the numbers: 3 ×  2 = 6

=6x+4\times \:5y+4\times \:2z

Multiply the numbers: 4 × 5 = 20

=6x+20y+4\times \:2z

Multiply the numbers: 4 × 2 = 8

=6x+20y+8z

Thus, we conclude that the equivalent expression is:

3\left(2x\right)+4y\left(5\right)+\left(4\times \:2z\right)=6x+20y+8z
