Answer:

37 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

you should try and write each of the steps into an equation of x. Where x is the boxes she started with

so, she had x boxes, she bought 7 (that's addition) and then half of those boxes (that's division) got destroyed in the fire and she has 22 left (that's your total).

you can write the equation like this:

(x+7)/2 = 22

then, you solve

(x+7) = 44

x = 37

she originally had 37 boxes

58 boxes at first I got this by adding 22+7 which is 29 then multiplied two since it said half got destroyed and 29x2 is 58. So then I did 58/2 which us 29 minus the 7 she brought which is 22 and she has 22 left! I hope you understand lol

Determine which of the following situations requires the distributive property in order to simplify the expression. Select all s
ipn [44]

Answers

9(x + y)

(7 - a)(b)

 

The Distributive Property is used in algebraic expressions to multiply a single term and two or more terms which are inside a set of parentheses.

 

In the case of x(2y), there is only one term inside the parenthesis

In the case of 9(x ∙ y), the distributive property is not used because (x ∙ y) = xy which means only one term will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (9)

 

In the case of 9(x + y), the distributive property is used because the two terms in the parenthesis (x and y) will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (9)

9(x + y) = 9*x + 9*y (by applying the distributive property)

 

In the case of (7 ∙ a)(b), the distributive property is not used because (7 ∙ a) = 7a which means only one term will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (b)

 

In the case of (7 - a)(b), the distributive property is used because the two terms in the parenthesis (7 and -a) will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (b)

(7 - a)(b) = 7*b - a*b (by applying the distributive property)

 

In the case of (2 ∙ x) ∙ y, the distributive property is not used because (2 ∙ x) = 2x which means only one term will be multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (y)
