2335 = 55x + 0.45(300)
2335 = 55x + 135.....distribute through the parenthesis
2335 - 135 = 55x.....subtraction property
2200 = 55x ....division property
2200/55 = x ...simplify
40 = x.....she spent 40 days on the trip

Find the Product and Combine similar terms.<br>1. -1(7+4b) =<br>2. x(x²–2xy+y²) =<br>3. -5x(-3+x) =​
sergejj [24]
-1(7+4b) - distribute the -1 to the expression
(-1 * 7) + (-1 * 4b) — ( + and - = - )when it is multiplied
= -7 - 4b — there is no like term to added to subtracted so it will stay as like

x(x^2 - 2xy+y^2) distribute x to all
= x(x^2) - x(2xy) + x(y^2)
= x^3 - 2x^2y + xy^2 in multiplication exponent add to similar variable
No like term to connect

-5x(-3+x)
= -5x(-3) -5x(+x). (- and - is +)
= 15x -5x. similar variable x so connect the like connect like term by subtracting them
= 10x

If the supplement of an angle is two-third of itself ,then its supplement is
stich3 [128]
( 'x' is not 144 .)
 
The supplement of an angle is (180 - x) .
The problem says that (2/3) of 'x' is equal to (180 - x) .

180 - x = 2/3 x

Multiply each side by 3 :
( Note:  3 x 180 = 540 .)

540 - 3x = 2x

Add 3x to each side:

540 = 5x

Divide each side by 5 :

<u>x = 108°</u> .

if 5000000 invested at 4% interest compounded continuously how much will the investment be worth in 30 years
umka21 [38]
For this you use A=Pe^(rt)
A=furutre amount
P=present amount
e=natural base
r=rate in decimal
t=times in years

A=?
P=5000000
r=0.04
t=30

A=5,000,000e^(0.04*30)
A=5,000,000e^(1.2)
A=16600584.613683

There are 34 Pre-K children and 29 kinder garden children on the playground, some boys and some girls. The ratio of boys to girl
Natali [406]

There are 27 boys on the playground.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of Pre-K children = 34

No. of kindergarten children = 29

Total no of children = 29+34 = 63

Ratio of boys to girls = 3:4

Total ratio = 3+4 = 7

Therefore,

boys proportion = \frac{3}{7}

Total number of boys = \frac{3}{7}\ of\ total\ number\ of\ children

Total\ number\ of\ boys = \frac{3}{7} *63\\Total\ number\ of\ boys = \frac{189}{7} \\Total\ number\ of\ boys = 27

There are 27 boys on the playground.
