Can you combine like terms without formally showing the distributive property? Explain.
blsea [12.9K]
Yes you can! Say you have 5(2 + x) + 3x. The answer would be 10+8x because when you use the distributive property you will end up getting 5*2 5*x and once you multiply, it's obvious 5 times 2 is 10 and 5 times x will equal 5x. Then you add 5x and 3x and get 8x. So, the simplified expression here is 10+8x. When you have this as an answer it's proving your answer right. You can without using the distributive property. We can have 10+5x+3x and it will be your simplified expression. It's the same thing with equations too.

Mark wrote the highest score he made on his new video game as the product of 70 X 6000. Use the Associative and Commutative Prop
sesenic [268]
I think in commutative properties of multiplication:
70 x 6000 = 70 x 6000
420,000   =  420,000

I don't know associative properties, only commutative properties. Sorry :(

a kid sits on top of a 12 foot slide, looking down with an angle of depression of 25 degrees. find the height of the slide
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Height of slide = 5 feet (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of slide = 12 feet

Angle of depression = 25°

Find:

Height of slide

Computation:

Length of slide = Hypotenuse

Height of slide = Perpendicular

Using trigonometry function;

Sin θ = Perpendicular / Hypotenuse

Sin 25 = Height of slide / 12

0.422 = Height of slide / 12

Height of slide = 12 x 0.422

Height of slide = 5.064

Height of slide = 5 feet (Approx.)
