In this question, you're trying to figure out what property is being represented.

Your answer would be the Distributive Property

This is your answer because as you can see, you are "distributing" the 2 to the variables inside the parenthesis.

When you distribute the number, you would be multiplying, in which in this case there is multiplication.

Therefore, Distributive property would be the correct answer.

Trava [24]

Answer:

4 / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Fred fraction = 2/3

Sarah formed a fraction by dividing her number line into 6 equal pieces. This is given as;

x / 6

Since her fraction is equal to that of fred, we have;

x / 6 = 2 / 3

x = 6 * 2 / 3 = 4

Sarah Fraction = 4 / 6

Find the midpoint of the line segment with the given endpoints. (-3,-7) and (3,0)

Crank

The coordinates of the midpoint:
$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$
x₁,y₁ - the coordinates of one endpoint
x₂,y₂ - the coordinates of the other endpoint

$(-3,-7) \\
x_1=-3 \\ y_1=-7 \\ \\
(3,0) \\
x_2=3 \\ y_2=0 \\ \\
\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}=\frac{-3+3}{2}=\frac{0}{2}=0 \\ \\
\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}=\frac{-7+0}{2}=\frac{-7}{2}=-3.5 \\ \\
\boxed{(0,-3.5)} - \hbox{the midpoint}$

Answer: 11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Gallons of corn syrup used: 8
Pieces of candy produced: 1,776
gallons of corn syrup per hour: 52

If we apply proportions:

8 /1,776 = 52/x

Where x is the pieces of candy made per hour.

Solving

x = 52x1, 776 /8

x = 11,544

11,544 pieces of candy are made per hour.
