Answer:

x-y

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must distribute:  

4(x-y)= 4x-4y

-3(x-y)=-3x+3y

4x-4y-3x+3y

Then combine like terms:

(be careful of negatives)

4x-<em>4y</em>-3x+<em>3y</em>

x-y

Sarah had 25 candies. Sarah gave 25 of the candies to her sister. Of the amount left, she gave 2/3 to her friend. How many candi
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

She has 5 candles left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total of candy Sarah has = 25candies

If Sarah gave 2/5 of the candies to her sister, the total amount she gave her sister will be 2/5 of 25

2/5 of 25 = 10

The remaining candy left will be 25-10 which is 15.

If she gave 2/3 of the amount left to her friend, the amount she gave her friend will be 2/3×15 = 10candies.

If one side of a square is increased by 8 cm and an adjacent side decreased by 2 cm, a rectangle is formed whose perimeter is 40
sveta [45]
<h3>Answer:  7 cm</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

x = side length of the original square (measured in cm).

One side increases by 8 cm to go from x to x+8. At the same time, an adjacent side decreases from x to x-2 (aka it decreases by 2 cm).

The x by x square turns into a x+8 by x-2 rectangle.

L = x+8 = length

W = x-2 = width

P = perimeter of rectangle

P = 2(L+W)

P = 2(x+8+x-2)

P = 2(2x+6)

P = 4x+12

The perimeter of this rectangle is 4x+12, which is set equal to the stated perimeter 40 cm. We'll use this to solve for x.

P = 40

4x+12 = 40

4x = 40-12

4x = 28

x = 28/4

x = 7

The square originally had side lengths of 7 cm.

Increasing this by 8 cm gets us x+8 = 7+8 = 15 cm. So L = 15.

Also, W = x-2 = 7-2 = 5 cm is the width.

Then note how P = 2(L+W) = 2(15+5) = 40 to help confirm the answer.
