Answer:

7(3+5)=7(3)+7(5)\\15-10=5(3-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both expressions are examples of the <em>distributive property</em>, which basically says "if I have <em>this </em>many groups of some size and <em>that</em> many groups of the same size, I've got <em>this </em>+ <em>that</em> groups of that size altogether."

To give an example, if I've got <em>3 groups of 5 </em>and <em>2 groups of 5</em>, I've got 3 + 2 = <em>5 groups of 5 </em>in total. I've attached a visual from Math with Bad Drawings to illustrate this idea.

Mathematically, we'd capture that last example with the equation

5(3)+5(2)=5(3+2). We can also read that in reverse: 3 + 2 groups of 5 is the same as adding together 3 groups of 5 and 2 groups of 5; both directions get us 8 groups of 5. We can use this fact to rewrite the first expression like this: 7(3+5)=7(3)+7(5).

This idea extends to subtraction too: If we have 3 groups of 4 and we take away 1 group of 4, we'd expect to be left with 3 - 1 = 2 groups of 4, or in symbols: 4(3)-4(1)=4(3-1)=4(2). When we start with two numbers like 15 and 10, our first question should be if we can split them up into groups of the same size. Obviously, you could make 15 groups of 1 and 10 groups of 1, but 15 is also the same as <em>3 groups of 5</em> and 10 is the same as <em>2 groups of 5</em>. Using the distributive property, we could write this as 15-10=3(5)-2(5)=5(3-2), so we can say that 15-10=5(3-2).

Chistopher is 20 years younger than ishaan. Ishaan and chistopher first met two years ago. Fourteen years ago, ishaan was 3 time
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Ishaan is 49 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of Christopher be 'C'.

Let the present age of Ishaan be 'I'.

From the given data, we can form equations which will help us solve the problem.

Christopher is 20 years younger than Ishaan. This means:

C = I - 20                  . . . (1)

Fourteen years ago, Ishaan would have been (I -14) years old and Christopher (C - 14) years old.

From the data, I - 14 = 3(C - 14)         . . . (2)

Substituting the value of C in Equation 2, we get:

I - 14 = 3(I - 20 - 14)

⇒ I - 14 = 3(I - 34)

⇒ I - 14 = 3I - 112

⇒ 2I = 112 + 14 = 98

⇒ I = 49

So, Ishaan is 49 years old.
