Answer:
22
Step-by-step explanation:
x-1 is a midsegment.
According to the Triangle midsegment theorem, x-1 is half of the third side (42)
x-1 = 42/2
x-1 = 21
x= 22
or
2x-2=42
2x=44
x=22
Hope this helps!
23(x)-85
Substitute 12 for x
23(12)-85

Answer:
Distributive Property
Step-by-step explanation:
5y + 2 + 6 + 2y
= 5y + 2(y + 3) + 2 This is the distributive property of multiplication w.r.t. addition
= 6y − y + 2y + 10 − 4 + 2
The distributive property of multiplication with respect to addition is the one which separates each term by using multiplication and then addition.
So we see that 2 is multiplied with y and 3 and then added with the like terms. If there was a minus sign the property would be distributive over subtraction.

Answer:
- 100 mL of 75% solution
- 150 mL of pure alcohol
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity (in mL) of pure alcohol needed for the mix. Then the amount of 75% needed is (250-x). The amount of alcohol in the mixture is ...
1.00x +0.75(250 -x) = 0.90(250)
0.25x +187.5 = 225 . . simplify
0.25x = 37.5 . . . . . . . . subtract 187.5
x = 150 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.25
(250 -x) = 100 . . . . mL of 75% solution
You need 100 mL of the 75% solution and 150 mL of pure alcohol to obtain the desired mixture.
