Let Cynthia's age be C, then Abigail's age A

since Abigail is 8 years older, her age A = C+8.

20 years ago Cynthia's she was C-20 and Abigail was A-20=3(C-20)

A-20=3C-60
A=3C-40
but we just said A=C+8
so 3C-40=C+8
2C=48
C=24
A=24+8=32

Cynthia's age is 24 and Abigail's age is 32

write an expression that shows how you can multiply 9x475 using expanded form and the distributive property

kari74 [83]

To multiply 9x475 using expanded form and the distributive property, you will break 475 into three numbers, multiply each of them by 9, and add the products together:

475 = 400 + 70 + 5

400x9 = 3600
70x9 = 630
5x9 = 45

3600 + 630 + 45 = 4,275
