7 times as much as the sum of 1/3 and 4/5
Vlada [557]
7( \frac{1}{3} +  \frac{4}{5} )

=7( \frac{1(5)}{3(5)} +  \frac{4(3)}{5(3)} )

=7( \frac{5}{15} +  \frac{12}{15} )

=7( \frac{17}{15})

=\frac{7}{1} ( \frac{17}{15})

=\frac{119}{15}

= 7\frac{14}{15} ≈ 7.93

Multiplying monomials and binomials
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

28w^2-476w

Step-by-step explanation:

The general rule we are going to use to multiply this out is the distributive property. Which is:

a(b+c) = ab + ac

<u>Note:</u> x * x = x^2

Now multiplying, we get:

28w(w-17)\\=28w*w-28w*17\\=28w^2-476w

This is the multiplied out form, answer.

What is the equation in point slope form of a line that passes through the point (–8, 2) and has a slope of 1/2?
Kamila [148]
Point slope equation: 
y-y1=m(x-x1) 
m=slope

So we simply plug in our given information: 
x1=-8 
y1=2
m=1/2

y-2=1/2(x-(-8)  

2 minus signs next to each other make a positive 

Final answer: 
y-2=1/2(x+8)
