Answer: A. 30+(-12)+70

Step-by-step explanation:

Commutative property of addition is given by : a+b = b+a , where a and b can be any expression of real numbers.

It basically changes the order of the so that simplification of any expression becomes easier.

In A. we use this property as

30+(-12)+70 = 30+[(-12)+70]

= 30 + [70+(-12)]  [we switched order of (-12) and 17]

= 30+70-12

= 100-12

= 88

The rest of the expression already arranged accordingly, there is no need to apply commutative property to change the order of the numbers.

So the correct option is A. 30+(-12)+70.

Find the value of x.
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u><em>Midpoint Theorem</em></u> states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

so

In this problem

(x+5)=\frac{1}{2}(3x-1)

solve for x

Multiply by 2 both sides

2x+10=3x-1

subtract 2x both sides

10=3x-1-2x

10=x-1

Adds 1 both sides

x=11

A train leaves at 14:56 and arrives at 16:43. It travelled at an average speed of 135 km/h. How far did it travel? Give your ans
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

240.8

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Calculate time taken

16:43 - 14:56 = 1 hour and 47 minutes

→ Write the speed formula and make distance the subject

Speed = Distance ÷ Time ⇔ Distance = Speed × Time

→ Convert 1 hour and 47 minutes into decimal format

1.78333333 or  1\frac{47}{60}

→ Substitute values into formula

135 ×  1\frac{47}{60}  = 240.75
