The estimated sum of 196 and 482 is 700.
We do estimates when we do mental calculation. We relate the number to the nearest number that can easily be computed mentally.
196 is near 200 so we round it up to 200
482 is near 500 so we round it up to 500
Thus, 200 + 500 = 700.
700 is the estimated sum.
Answer:
x - 5 = 3x + 1
-6 = 2x
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
It is impossible to solve for 2 unknown variables in an equation. In order to solve this, you must think mentally.
What two numbers can you add to make 22?
A good example is 15 and 8.
Can 15 and 8 be divided into smaller numbers?
Yes.
15/3 = 5
8/2 = 4
^
Notice how I'm dividing by the coefficient? *3*c and *2*f
So C can be 5 and F can be 4.
3(5) + 2(4) = 22
15 + 8 = 22
22 = 22
Answer:

--- Distributive property
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Ferns = 4
Palms = 2
Lillies = 10
Shrubs = 8
Required
Show the total cost of plants as an expression
Shorten it using the distributive property
First, represent Ferns with F; Palms with P; Lilies with L and Shrubs with S;
So, 4 Ferns = 4F
2 Palms = 2P
10 Lilies = 10L
8 Shrubs = 8S
Total Plants = Summation of the above parameters

The above expression represents the total plants bought;
Now, to apply the distributive property; we simply look for a common factor;
In this case, the common factor is 2;
So,
becomes


350,000 because the ten thousands is 40,000 so you would look to the right of the four and it’s a six so you would add a one to the four to make it a five and replace all other numbers behind the five with zeros
