Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.

Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is

x + 1125

After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that

(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)

x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500

10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500

9x = 675

x = 675/9

x = 75

Porky's current weight is

75 + 50 = 125 lbs

Kobe's current weight is

(75 + 1125) + 50

= 1250 lbs

What property is 7+(4+6)=7+n
Ket [755]

This looks like "half" a property. I'm assuming you mean something that looks like this:


IF a + b = a + c, THEN b = c. In the expression in your problem, the role of a is being played by 7. The role of b is played by (4 + 6), and the role of c is played by n.


The conclusion would be that 4 + 6 = n.


But you asked about what the property is called. The likely name is the subtraction property of equality. How did we go from a + b = a + c to the conclusion b = c? We subtracted a from both sides of the equation.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

y = -x² + 60x + 256 in²

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>Before we begin, remember the following:</u>

yᵃ × yᵇ = yᵃ⁺ᵇ

<u>Now, for the given problem:</u>

We know that the area of the rectangle is the product of its dimensions (length and width)

<u>This means that:</u>

Area of rectangle = length × width

<u>Now, we are given that:</u>

length of game board = x+4 in

width of game board = -x+64 in

<u>Substitute with the givens in the rule it as follows: </u>

Area of rectangle = length × width

Area of board game = (x+4)(-x+64)

<u>Use the distributive property, compute the product and gather like terms as follows:</u>

Area of board game = (x+4)(-x+64)

Area of board game = x(-x) + x(64) +4(-x) +4(64)

Area of board game = -x² + 64x - 4x + 256

Area of board game = -x² + 60x + 256 in²

Hope this helps :)

Plug in the values of p and q where you see them in the equation:

-(2+4)2 / (-6) - Distribute the -1 
(-2-4)2 / (-6) -  Distribute the 2
(-4-8) / (-6) - Subtract what's inside the parenthesis
(-12) / (-6) - Divide
