How do you use distributive property to find the answer of 75 divided by 3

1 answer:

7 0

The distributive property of 75/3 may look like:

75/3 = 30/3 + 30/3 + 15/3

It's easier to count 30/3 than 75/3, so I did it twice and then I had 15 left, because 75 - (30 + 30) = 15.

That's basicly how you do it - just try to find the easiest number to divide (smaller then the given dividend).

Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below:

In Triangle ABC shown below, side AB is 6 and side AC is 4.

Which statement is needed to prove that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length?

Answer

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 4.

Segment AD is 12 and segment AE is 4.

Segment AD is 12 and segment AE is 8.

Answer:

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

side AB = 6

side AC = 4

Now we need to prove that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length.

Solution:

Now AD + DB = AB also AE + EC = AC

DB = AB - AD also EC = AC - AE

Now we take first option Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Substituting we get;

DB = 6-3 = 3 also EC = 4-2 =2

From above we can say that;

AD = DB and EC = AE

So we can say that segment DE bisects Segment AB and AC equally.

Hence From Midpoint theorem which states that;

"The line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is congruent to one half of the third side."

Hence Proved.

Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. Solve the equation by completing the square. x2 + 20x + 82 =

VikaD [51]

7=x^2+20x+82
0=x^2+20x+75

What adds to 20 and multiplies to 75? 5 and 15.

x^2+5x+15x+75
x(x+5) 15(x+5)
(x+15) (x+5)

Zeroes are x= -5 and x= -15
