Answer:

x=5/2 + a/2, y= 5/2 - a/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this system using addition of the equations

x+y=5

2x =(5+a)

x=(5+a)/2= 5/2 +a/2

x=5/2 +a/2

x-y=a

y = x - a , x=5/2 + a/2

y= 5/2 + a/2-a

y= 5/2 - a/2

Answer:

tetrahedral

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the valence shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) the shape of a molecule is dependent on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

The predicted electron pair geometry may sometimes differ from the molecular geometry due to the presence of lone pairs and multiple bonds.

If we consider each nitrogen atom in N2 independently, we will notice that each nitrogen atom has four regions of electron density. Hence the electron pair geometry is tetrahedral.

Are the expressions 5 ( x - 3) and 5x + 15 equivalent? use the distributive property to support your answer

ratelena [41]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: No, they aren't. If you look at 5 and multiply (distribute) it to <u>negative</u> three you will end up with -15. And 15 is not equal to negative 15.

I hope this helps!
