The answer is 18:24 because 9x2 is 18 & 12 x 2 is 24 so that’s the only one that makes any sense so yea!
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
That is the answer. The complex numbers have opposite real parts.
Explanation:
The distributive property tells you that multiplication distributes over addition. In equation form, it looks like ...
a(b +c) = ab +ac

<h3>Groups and Multiples of Groups</h3>
The parentheses are a grouping symbol. In the above equation, they indicate that the sum (b+c) is to be treated as a group. When it is multiplied by 'a', everything in the group is multiplied by 'a'.
In the real world, there are many ways things are grouped. Baseball cards are packaged together with bubble gum; Cracker Jacks® are packaged together with a prize; left gloves are packaged together with right gloves; a bicycle is a package that has a frame, 2 wheels, a seat, handlebars. If you purchase a number of any of these packages, each of the items in the package is part of your purchase that number of times.
For example, 3 bicycles will have 3 frames, 3×2 = 6 wheels, 3 seats, 3 sets of handlebars. In algebraic form, this might look like ...
3(f +2w + s + h) = 3f +6w +3s +3h
__
<h3>Eliminating Parentheses</h3>
Using the distributive property to eliminate parentheses is like regrouping the contents of the packages so like items are grouped together. In our above example, the 3 frames were grouped together when we considered that part of the group of 3 bicycles. <em>The multiplier multiplies every member of the group</em>.

<h3>Adding Parentheses</h3>
The reverse of the distributive property tells us we can regroup items into sets. It tells us we can take 3 frames, 6 wheels, 3 seats, and 3 handlebars and group them together in a way that makes 3 bicycles, each having a frame, 2 wheels, a seat, and handlebars.
3f +6w +3s +3h = 3(f +2w + s + h)
Often, we're asked to choose the multiplier to be the <em>greatest common factor (GCF) </em>of the numbers of things in the group. That makes each group as small as possible. The multiplier only needs to be <em>a</em> common factor, not necessarily <em>the greatest</em> common factor.
The total area of the complete lawn is (100-ft x 200-ft) = 20,000 ft².
One half of the lawn is 10,000 ft². That's the limit that the first man
must be careful not to exceed, lest he blindly mow a couple of blades
more than his partner does, and become the laughing stock of the whole
company when the word gets around. 10,000 ft² ... no mas !
When you think about it ... massage it and roll it around in your
mind's eye, and then soon give up and make yourself a sketch ...
you realize that if he starts along the length of the field, then with
a 2-ft cut, the lengths of the strips he cuts will line up like this:
First lap:
(200 - 0) = 200
(100 - 2) = 98
(200 - 2) = 198
(100 - 4) = 96
Second lap:
(200 - 4) = 196
(100 - 6) = 94
(200 - 6) = 194
(100 - 8) = 92
Third lap:
(200 - 8) = 192
(100 - 10) = 90
(200 - 10) = 190
(100 - 12) = 88
These are the lengths of each strip. They're 2-ft wide, so the area
of each one is (2 x the length).
I expected to be able to see a pattern developing, but my brain cells
are too fatigued and I don't see it. So I'll just keep going for another
lap, then add up all the areas and see how close he is:
Fourth lap:
(200 - 12) = 188
(100 - 14) = 86
(200 - 14) = 186
(100 - 16) = 84
So far, after four laps around the yard, the 16 lengths add up to
2,272-ft, for a total area of 4,544-ft². If I kept this up, I'd need to do
at least four more laps ... probably more, because they're getting smaller
all the time, so each lap contributes less area than the last one did.
Hey ! Maybe that's the key to the approximate pattern !
Each lap around the yard mows a 2-ft strip along the length ... twice ...
and a 2-ft strip along the width ... twice. (Approximately.) So the area
that gets mowed around each lap is (2-ft) x (the perimeter of the rectangle),
(approximately), and then the NEXT lap is a rectangle with 4-ft less length
and 4-ft less width.
So now we have rectangles measuring
(200 x 100), (196 x 96), (192 x 92), (188 x 88), (184 x 84) ... etc.
and the areas of their rectangular strips are
1200-ft², 1168-ft², 1136-ft², 1104-ft², 1072-ft² ... etc.
==> I see that the areas are decreasing by 32-ft² each lap.
So the next few laps are
1040-ft², 1008-ft², 976-ft², 944-ft², 912-ft² ... etc.
How much area do we have now:
After 9 laps, Area = 9,648-ft²
After 10 laps, Area = 10,560-ft².
And there you are ... Somewhere during the 10th lap, he'll need to
stop and call the company surveyor, to come out, measure up, walk
in front of the mower, and put down a yellow chalk-line exactly where
the total becomes 10,000-ft².
There must still be an easier way to do it. For now, however, I'll leave it
there, and go with my answer of: During the 10th lap.
Y= 1x because the slope is 1 because rise over run 1
