The correct answer is option 2.

3 = 0

x - a = 0

x = a

x + b = 0

x = -b

We do not multiply any of these values by 3 because in a way, 3 is acting as another "zero" of the equation. Though, as shown above, it does not equal 0, it still does not apply to any of the other equations solved above.

Hope this helps!! :)

I like to start with changing fractions to decimals. It seems easier that way.
5/8 = 0.625 cups

Now divide 4 by 0.625
4 / 0.625 = 6.4

Noor can offer 6 cups with an extra 2/5 of a cup left. He can offer the 2/5 of a cup to a friend, so he can offer 7 friends some hot chocolate!

Answer:

37 units

Step-by-step explanation:

$\boxed{distance = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2} }}$

Using the distance formula above,

distance between (15, -17) and (-20, -5)

$= \sqrt{[15 - ( - 20)]^{2} + [ - 17 - ( - 5)] {}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{(15 + 20)^{2} + ( - 17 + 5)^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{35 ^{2} + ( - 12) {}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{1225 + 144} \\ = \sqrt{1369} \\ = 37 \: units$
