Remark
This is like using the distributive principle only you are going backwards. Instead of trying to remove brackets, you are trying to create them.
Solution
Since you want to take - 6 outside the brackets you should divide both terms by - 6
<em><u>- 18a</u></em>: - 18a/- 6 = 3a which is left inside the brackets.
<em><u>-30:</u></em> - 30/-6 = 5
- 6(3a + 5)
Answer
-6(3a + 5)
42 - 2x is the answer because x is the variable standing in for the number that will be multiplied by 2 (2x means 2 times something) and decreased by just means minus. if you haven't gotten to doing 2x then do 42 - 2*x
Answer:
5.50x + 2y ≤ 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Romona has a total of $18 and she has to spend it on dog food.
Dry god food cost $5.50 per bag and wet dog food cost $2.00 per can.
We have to write an inequality to show the above condition.
Let the number of dry and wet dog food she buys be x and y.
The total cost of dog food must be less than $18.
Then,
5.50x + 2y ≤ 18
This is the required linear inequality.
Your answer will be 6. The reason it is six is that 24/6 = 4 and 4 X 6=24.
Add all the numbers on the shape until you get your answer
