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.
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 :(
Answer:
15 green pieces.
Step-by-step explanation:
8x = 24
x = 3.
So you need 3 times the amount of green pieces for every yellow piece.
3 * 5 green pieces = 15 green pieces
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.)
Make them both improper fractions
13/3 divided by 11/9
Divide = multiply reciprocal
13/3 * 9/11 = 117/11 = 10 7/11
