Y = -5
because if you have 2, then you add a negative number. it is the same thing as subtracting a positive number. in other words,
2 + (-5) = -3
is the same as
2 - 5 = -3

Andy currently runs a total of 12 miles per week. He plans to increase that number by 1.5 miles until he reaches a total of 26 m

sergejj [24]

Answer:

$1.5x+12=26$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of weeks that it will take Andy to reach his goal.

We have been given that Andy currently runs a total of 12 miles per week. He plans to increase that number by 1.5 miles, so number of miles increased in x weeks will be 1.5x and total number of miles ran in x weeks will be 1.5x+12.

Since Andy wants to reach a total of 26 miles per week, so we will equate the total number of miles ran in x weeks with 26.

$1.5x+12=26$

Therefore, the equation $1.5x+12=26$ can be used to determine x, the number of weeks that it will take Andy to reach his goal.

Which equation represents the distributive property?

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property is when you use the number on the outside of the parenthesis to multiply to the inside. So, 36+9=3(12+3), in order to solve it on the parenthesis side you would take 3 and multiply it by 12, giving you 36. Then, you would take 3 and multiply it to the other 3 which gives you 9.
