Answer:
9(x +y)
Step-by-step explanation:
You observe that both terms have a coefficient of 9. The distributive property lets you factor that out, so you can rewrite the expression as ...
9x +9y = 9(x +y)
_____
It might help to think of parentheses as a "bag." The expression 9(x+y) tells you the contents of one bag is (x+y) and you have 9 of them. You could think of x, and y as representing two different physical objects, for example, perhaps a ball and a cube.
The first expression, 9x +9y, tells you that you have 9 of each of these objects. The distributive property says this could be the result of dumping the contents of 9 bags, each containing one each of the objects. The expression 9(x+y) is the version of the expression that shows these objects as being grouped into 9 bags.
Answer:
12 and 24
Step-by-step explanation:
2 numbers, x in this case, with one being twice the other, one of them will be 2x, equals 36. Your equation would look like this: 2x+x=36. Simplify it to get 3x=36, divide the 3 and you get 12. 12 will be your small number then multiply by 2 to get your large one, 24.
Answer:
y = -3x + 21
Step-by-step explanation:
(5,6)
y = mx + b
6 = -3 × 5 + b
solving for b
b = 6 - (-3)(5)
b = 21
Therefore,
y = -3x + 21
