Carey solves the equation 4(2x-1)+5=3+2(x+1) by applying the distributive property on both sides of the equation. The result is

8x-4+5=3+2x+2 . Carey then wants to combine like terms. Which are the terms Carey should combine? 8x + 2x –4 + 5 + 3 + 2 –4 + 5 and 3 + 2 4 + 5 and 3 + 2 Mark this and return

Answer:

Given the equation: 4(2x-1)+5 = 3+2(x+1)                    .....[1]

Distributive property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, then the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

i.e, a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c

Applying distributive property, in [1]we get;

4 \cdot(2x) -4 \cdot 1 + 5 = 3 +2 \cdot x + 2\cdot 1

Simplify:

8x -4 + 5 = 3 + 2x + 2          .....[2]

Like terms are those terms that have the same variables and powers

Combine like terms on each side in equation [2];

8x +(-4+5) = (3+2) +2x

Simplify:

8x + 1 =5 + 2x

The terms which Carey combine are; -4 +5 and 3 + 2

suppose for everyone cup of rice I add 2 3/4 cups of water. If I add 2 1/2 cups of rice, how much cups of water do I add?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

6 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1 cup of rice is added to 2 3/4 water

We are to determine the Amount of water to be to 2 1/2 cups of rice

Let the unknown number for water be x

So let's solve

1 cup of rice=11/4 water

5/2 cup of rice=x water

Cross multiply

x=5/2×11/4

x=55/8

X=6 7/8

Therefore,6 7/8 water is needed

8 < 4(x+1) show your work
kati45 [8]
8 < 4 (x + 1)   Use the Distributive Property
8 < 4x + 4       Subtract 4 from both sides
4 < 4x             Divide both sides by 4
1 < x
