Hey there
I 've already answered this question twice
by mistake.Kindly check.
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.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
<h2>a = 400/21, b = 580/21</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Small triangles are similar. Therefore, the sides are proportional
<em>cross multiply</em>
<em>divide both sides by 21</em>
For b, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:
Answer:
x=50
See below for word problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
While shopping, you spend $125 before tax. You buy 3 dresses at the same price each and receive a $25 discount. How much is the price of each dress?
3x-25=125
3x=125+25
3x=150
x=50
2 solutions, the root to the equation is the same as the root to the solution also known as “double roots”
