distributive property is a(b+c)=ab+ac

so

-(x+2)=-1(x+2)=-1(x)-1(2)=-x-2

5(2x-5)=5(2x)+5(-5)=10x-25


you get

1-x-2+2x=10x-25-x

answer is B

What is the x-value of the solution to the system of equations below?
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Let's solve for x.

x+y+z=8

Step 1: Add -y to both sides.

x+y+z+−y=8+−y

x+z=−y+8

Step 2: Add -z to both sides.

x+z+−z=−y+8+−z

x=−y−z+8

Answer:

x=−y−z+8

The area of a rectangle is 3 3/4 unit squares, and its length is 5 units. Find the width and the perimeter of this rectangle.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Width = 3/4 units or 0.75 units

perimeter of the rectangle = 23/2 = 11 1/2 units or 11.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle has two opposite sides equal in length. The 2 opposite sides are also parallel to each other.

The area of a rectangle = LW

where

L = length

W = width

The area of the rectangle = 3 3/4 units² = 15/4 units²

Length = 5 units

Therefore,

15/4  =  5W

multiply both sides by 4

15 = 20W

divide both sides by 20

W = 15/20

W = 3/4

Width = 3/4

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2L + 2W

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + W)

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(5 + 3/4)

perimeter of the rectangle = 2(23/4)

perimeter of the rectangle = 23/2 = 11 1/2 units or 11.5 units
