Rounded to the nearest whole number is still 43
Answer:
f(x) = 2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for this, we need to use the Distributive Property, which allows us to multiply the number/variable outside of the parenthesis by all numbers/variables inside of the parenthesis. Once we've done that, we can attempt to simplify the equation.
Our current equation is:
7a + 3(9+5a) = 0
Let's use the Distributive Property.
3(9 + 5a)
3(9) + 3(5a)
27 + 15a
Our current equation now is:
7a + 27 + 15a = 0
Combine like-terms.
15a + 7a = 22a
22a + 27 (If this is not being solved, THIS is your answer as an expression)
Subtract 27 from both sides
22a = -27
Divide both sides by 22 to get a.
a = -27/22.
If we are not solving for a, but getting an expression, your answer is:
22a + 27.
If we are solving for a, our answer is:
a = -27/22.

This looks like common core which is never straight forward.It seems as though they are asking for the perimeter and not area,since they used feet for the distance around instead of sq.ft.
Here are the 4 inequality signs.
---> a is less than b
---> a is less than or equal to b
---> a is greater than b
---> a is greater than or equal to b
For the second and fourth lines above, the two sides may or may not be equal.
For the first and third lines above, the two sides cannot be equal.
