To find an equivalent expression to −4(x − 1) + 2 we can use the distributive property.

For Example, A(B + C) = AB + AC

= -4(x - 1) + 2

= (-4 * x) + (-4 * -1) + 2

= -4x + 4 + 2

= -4x + 6

Best of Luck!

There are 12 baseball trading cards in 4 packages. each package has the same number of cards. Write a rule in words for the numb

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Rule in words:

The number of packages Justin needs to buy to get x cards is x divided by 3.

Rule as an algebraic expresssion:

$y=x/3$

Explanation:

This is a direct variation problem.

Since each package has the same number of cards, the number of cards is proportional to the number of packages.

12 baseball cards in 4 packages means that there are 12/4 = 3 cards per package, so:

The number of cards is 3 times the number of packages.

The number of packages is the number of cards divided by the number of 3.

So, the rule in words for the number of packages Justin needs to buy x cards is one third of x. This table may help you to visualize it:

Number of packages: 1 2 3 4 5

Number of cards: 3 6 9 12 15

To find the algebraic expression that describes the same rule, you can set the following proportion:

$\frac{12}{4} =\frac{x}{y}$

Where y is the number of packages and x is the number of cards.

And from that you solve for y:

$\frac{12}{4} =\frac{x}{y}\\ \\ 12y=4x\\ \\ y=4x/12\\ \\ y=x/3$

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS GEOMETRY PROBLEM!! SHOW WORK!!

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Solution given:

In right angled triangle

ABC.

with respect to <C=40°

opposite side=AB

adjacent=BC=DE=30ft

now

relationship between opposite side and adjacent

is given by tan angle

tan 40°=oppo/adjacent

tan40°=AB/30

AB=tan40*30

AB=25.2

Now 

height of flagpole =AB+BE=25.2+5=30.2ft

option 4th is a required answer
