Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is two times.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property is multiplying the coefficient in front of parentheses into the parentheses. You have two sets of parentheses both with a coefficient that needs to be distributed.

The first time you use it is on 2(x+5), distributing the 2.

The second time you use it is on the -3(2x+7), distributing the -3

Please let me know if you have questions :)

What is the area, in square centimeters, of the isosceles trapezoid below?
charle [14.2K]
Both triangles area:
4.2 x 8.2 = 34.44

you don’t need to divide by two cause there’s two triangles anyways.

also, you get 8.2 by subtracting the total length by the top length. (13.5-5.3)

rectangle:
4.2 x 5.3 = 22.26

the total area is 56.7cm squared

30 fortyths into a decimal​
lana [24]

Answer:

0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent means 'per 100'. So, 30% means 30 per 100 or simply 30/100. If you divide 30 by 100, you get 0.3 (a decimal number). So, to convert from percent to decimal, simply divide by 100 and remove the '%' sign. There is a easy way to convert from percent to decimal: Just move the decimal point 2 places to the left.

Hope this helps :)

pls give brainliest :p

Determine the slope of the line that passes through each pair of points. (-2,1) and (0,-2)
AysviL [449]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 2)

m = \frac{-2-1}{0+2} = \frac{-3}{2} = - \frac{3}{2}

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other. Once you know the constant of proportionality you can find an equation representing the directly proportional relationship between x and y, namely y=kx, with your specific k.
