Hello there! We are given the following equation and want to simplify it:

First, let's use the Distributive Property:
For this step, we are going to let:
After applying this version of the Distributive Property, we are given the equation:

We're going to use the distributive party again, but a slightly different version that's almost the same as first:
Using this on both terms of the equation changes the equation to:

Now, we just remove the parenthesis and combine like terms

This should be your answer. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:
<DAB= 98
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
I think you are supposed to assume that this is a parallelogram. In that case the two labeled angles are intended to be equal (one of the properties of a parallelogram).
Equation
2x + 36 = 3x - 5 Add 5 to both sides
2x + 36 + 5 = 3x - 5 + 5 Combine
2x + 41 = 3x Subtract 2x from both sides
2x - 2x + 41 = 3x - 2x Combine
41 = x
Answer
<DAB = 2x + 36
<DAB = 2*41 + 36
<DAB = 82 + 36
<DAB = 98
Combine costs
59.99(3) + 75 = 179.97 + 75
179.97 + 75 = $254.99 (total cost)
Now add tax: 8% = 0.08
254.99 * 0.08 = 20.3992
254.99 + 20.3992 = 275.3892
Solution: bill would be around $275
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
To sovle this we must combine the numbers togther and the variables togther.
We have:
8c+6-3c-2
Lets take out the c's and combine them:
8c -3c
=
5c
Now lets take out the numbers:
6-2
=
4
Now lets put these back together and we get the expression:
5c+4
This looks like A.
Hope this helps! :D
