Answer: 2-(2x+40) or (2x+40)-2

Step-by-step explanation: If you wanted to solve the problem, you have to do the stuff in the parentheses before you do the stuff out of the parentheses. In the parentheses, you will have to solve 2x before you do anything else. When you solve 2x, the answer to that, add it to 40. Then the answer in the parentheses, subtract it by 2 and you can get the answer.

1/5+1/7+3/21 the answer is

inessss [21]

Answer:

<h2>17/35</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to get all the fractions with a common denominator before we can solve the problem.

The only fractions that have a common multiple are 1/7 and 3/21, so we'll add these first and then add 1/5.

1/7 = 3/21

Add

$\frac{3}{21} + \frac{3}{21} =\frac{6}{21}$

6/21 = 30/105

1/5 = 21/105

$\frac{30}{105} + \frac{21}{105} = \frac{51}{105}$

Simplify

$\frac{51}{105} / \frac{3}{3} =\frac{17}{35}$

<h3>ANSWER: 17/35</h3>

I'm always happy to help :)

Every weekday, Mr. Jones bikes from his home to his job. Sometimes he rides along two roads, the long route that is shown by the

notka56 [123]

Answer:

(A)6 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we determine the value of a using Pythagoras Theorem.

$Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2\\17^2=a^2+15^2\\a^2=17^2-15^2\\a^2=289-225\\a^2=64\\a^2=8^2\\a=8$ km$

Therefore:

Distance along the long route = 8 + 15 =23 km

Distance along the shortcut =17 km

Difference =23-17 =6km

Therefore, Mr. Jones bikes 6km less when he takes the shortcut instead of the long route.
