X=6,-6
3x= 18
X=18/3
X= 6,-6
Here, you just want to solve it by finding a common denominator.
1/5+2/7, because she read 1/5 and 2/7 of the book on separate days. The common denominator is 35.
7/35+10/35
=17/35
So that's how much of the book she read before Saturday.
Now it says that on Sunday she read 5/9 of the remaining pages, meaning:
1-17/35 should give us our answer
35/35-17/35=18/35
But since it says she read 5/9 of the remaining pages, we need to multiply 18/35 by 5/9 to get what 5/9ths of 18/35 is.
(18/35)(5/9)=2/7
Therefore she read 2/7ths of the book on Sunday.
Answer: $23..50 see attachment for the explanation.
Answer:
6.2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Use pythagorean theorem to find b:
b = √(2.8² - 2.7²) = √0.55 = 0.7 (nearest tenth)
Perimeter of triangle = sum of all its sides = 2.8 + 2.7 + 0.7
Perimeter = 6.2 meters
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
