For A. the muddy water will slowly begin to decrease because it's been left out in the sun, some of the water will begin to evaporate.
(I don't know about B, or C, but I tried my best on A.)
Make sure to put in your own words. :)
The answer would be 12x^3+ 2x + 4
Answer:
6 donuts
Step-by-step explanation:
first divide the cost of the donuts by the amount of donuts per box
6 donuts:
2.10 ÷ 6 = .35 per donut
12 donuts
5.40 ÷ 12 = .45 per donut
18 donuts
7.20 ÷ 18 = .40 per donut
24 donuts
12 ÷ 24 = .50 per donut
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.
In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.

<em>Additional comment</em>
This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.
In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.
In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.
Ok let’s solve it
5(x-2)^2-20=0
first let’s foil (x-2)
5(x^2-4x+4) -20=0
now distribute the 5
5x^2 -20x +20 -20 = 0
combine like terms
5x^2-20x=0
take the gcf
5x(x-4)=0
x=0, 4
solutions are (4,0) and (2, -20) because the original vertex form a(x-h)^2+k
