Yes you can! Say you have 5(2 + x) + 3x. The answer would be 10+8x because when you use the distributive property you will end up getting 5*2 5*x and once you multiply, it's obvious 5 times 2 is 10 and 5 times x will equal 5x. Then you add 5x and 3x and get 8x. So, the simplified expression here is 10+8x. When you have this as an answer it's proving your answer right. You can without using the distributive property. We can have 10+5x+3x and it will be your simplified expression. It's the same thing with equations too.
Answer:
y - 2 = 5(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point slope form is
y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and ( x1,y1) is a point on the line
y - 2 = 5(x- -1)
y - 2 = 5(x+1)
52+23=75
10+78=88
88+75=163
that's one way
Answer: q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 70
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k <em>where a is the vertical stretch and (h, k) is the vertex.</em>
Which coordinate shifts the graph up?<em> The y-coordinate for the vertex is k.</em>
p(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60
q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60 <u>+ 10</u>
= 0.005(x - 40)² + 70
42.50$ ? 21 times 1.25 plus 13 times 1.25 = 42.50?
