1. you could distribute the 2 which would give you 2m - 16 + 3 = 17
2. You could add the 2 and 3 together and the problem would be 5(m - 8) = 17
Answer:
A. I believe I hope its correct I'm sorry if its wrong:( I tried.
Answer:
x = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x - 2) = 
(x + 4) + 2
Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions
5(x - 2) =3(x + 4) + 30 ← distribute and simplify both sides
5x - 10 = 3x + 12 + 30, that is
5x - 10 = 3x + 42 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
2x - 10 = 42 ( add 10 to both sides )
2x = 52 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
to convert pounds into ounces you'd
actually multiply 16 by 30:
30 * 16
you're doing this because if one pound equals 16 ounces, if you have 30 pounds then you must've had more ounces. therefore you'd multiply.
which is 480 pounds
Enjoy!
Divide the larger one by the smaller one. 2.4 divided by 0.3 gives you 8. That means the scale factor is 8, or the larger triangle is 8 times larger than the smaller. We can prove this by multiplying 0.3 by 8 and getting 2.4
