2. Distributive Property
4 is distributed and multiplied inside the parenthesis to x and -5.
4. Subtraction Property of Equality
x is subtracted from both sides of the equation.
4x - x - 22 = x - x + 3
3x - 22 = 3
5. Subtraction Property of Equality
22 is added to both sides of the equation.
3x - 22 + 22 = 3 + 22
3x = 25
6. Division Property of Equality
3 is divided from both sides of the equation.
= 
x =
False because the factor tree for 61 is 1 and 61
Answer:
(a) 4
(b) 4 * (7+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Let's first start by prime factorizing (finding the prime factors) 28 and 12:
12: 2*2*3
28: 2*2*7
We can see here they both share a common factor of 2*2, which is 4, therefore the GCF is 4.
(b) Factor a 4 out from the equation:
This gives us:
4 * (7+3)
Answer: x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
1) subtract 4 from both sides (-5x = 25)
2) divide -5 from both sides (x = -5)
Then you have the answer!
Answer:
7 sheets of paper
Step-by-step explanation:
$40-$19=$21
$21/$3=7 sheets of paper.
In words:
I did 40 minus 19 to get 21, and the divided 21 by 3 to get 7 sheets of paper.
