We can just add all these numbers together because they are just addition and subtraction.

We assume the miner starts at 0 (the surface).

0 - 1200 (down) + 900 (up) - 350 (down) = -650 (C)

Can you solve the inequality 2(x-3) is less than or equal to 10 without using the distributive property? Explain.
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Yes, without using the distributive property, we get the value for the given expression 2(x - 3)  ≤ 10  as   x ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is:

2(x - 3)  ≤ 10

Yes, the given expression can be solved without using the DISTRIBUTIVE Property

Here, consider the given expression:

2(x - 3)  ≤ 10

Now, divide the  inequality by 2 on both sides, we get:

\frac{2(x-3)}{2}  \leq  \frac{10}{2}\\\implies (x - 3)  \leq 5

Now adding (+3) on both the sides, we get:

(x - 3)  ≤ 5    ⇒  (x - 3  + 3 )  ≤ 5 + 3  

or, x ≤ 8

Hence, without using the distributive property, we get the value of x ≤ 8 for the given expression 2(x - 3)  ≤ 10

wariber [46]

Answer:

46.46 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An airplane consumes 30.25 gallons of fuel in 2.8 hours of flying

so

using proportion

Find out how many gallons will it consume in 4.3 hours of flying

\frac{30.25}{2.8}\ \frac{gal}{h}=\frac{x}{4.3}\ \frac{gal}{h}\\\\x=30.25*(4.3)/2.8\\\\x= 46.46\ gal

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average number is given by :

[m + (m - 1200) + (m - 1200)(1.30 ] / 3   =

[ 2m + 1.30m - 1200 - 1560] / 3   =

[3.3m - 2760] / 3  =

[1.1 m  - 920 ]
