It works because 7 x 9 x 10 is the same thing as 7 x 90, since 9 x 10 is just 90. So basically he is just writing more but the answer will still be the same.
Answer:
21 windows
Step-by-step explanation:
colleen's family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and Colleen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?
Answer: Let the number of window Colleen father would paint be x while that of her mother be y. Since her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, therefore the number of windows painted by the father x = 2y
Let the number of windows each painted by Colleen and her 2 brothers be z since they would paint the same number of windows. The total number of windows to be painted = 2y + y + z + z + z = 3y + 3z = 3(y + z).
Then number of windows needed to be painted by Colleen and her mother is given as z + y. Since Colleen painted 7 windows as her share and her mother share i.e. y + z = 7
Therefore the total number of windows = 3(y + z) = 3(7) = 21 windows
Hey there! :D
7(2x+6)=1
Use the distributive property. Multiply each number by each other.
7*2x= 14x 7*6= 42
14x+42=1
Subtract 42 on both sides.
14x= -41
Divide both sides by 14.
We know that 14 goes into -41 almost three times.
14*3= 42 (there is one left over)
-2 13/14 (we just need one more part of 14)
That is the simplified number.
I hope this helps!

Solve for x. The multiplicity of a root is the number of times the root appears.
x=-7 (multiplicity of 1)
x=3 (multiplicity of 2)
x=2-i (multiplicity of 1)
x=2+1 (multiplicity of 1)
