Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses. Then combine like terms. (The only "like terms" are the constants.)
... = 12 +3·2y +3·(-3) . . . use the distributive property to multiply each term in parentheses by the factor 3 outside those parentheses
... = 12 +6y -9 . . . . . . . . simplify
... = 6y + (12 -9) . . . . . . group like terms together
... = 6y + 3 . . . . . . . . . . simplify
___
B) Look for factors of each term that are also found in the other term.
... 18b has factors 3×6×b
... 12 has factors 2×6
The only common factor is 6, so we factor that out using the distributive property.
... 18b -12 = 6(3b -2)

<em>Comment on factoring</em>
For factoring problems, it helps immensely if you know your times tables and some of the rules for divisibility. (Even numbers are divisible by 2, numbers ending in 0 or 5 are divisible by 5, numbers whose sum of digits is divisible by 3 are divisible by 3, for example.)
Answer:
12 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
2.5 ÷ 100 = 0.025
2.8 - 2.5 = 0.3
0.3 ÷ 0.025 = 12
Answer:
Check bolded below
Step-by-step explanation:
1)radius = 10 in (given), diameter = 2*radius = 2(10 in) = 20 in
formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(10)
circumference = 20π in
2)diameter = 12 ft (given), radius = 1/2*diameter = 1/2(12 ft) = 6 ft
formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(6)
circumference = 12π ft
3)radius = 3 m (given), diameter = 2*radius = 2(3 m) = 6 m
formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(3)
circumference = 6π m
4)diameter = 18 cm (given), radius = 1/2*diameter = 1/2(18 cm) = 9 cm
formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(9)
circumference = 18π cm
2 red ping pongs - least likely
3 green ping pongs - possible
3 blue ping pongs - possible
1 yellow ping pong - not possible
Exterior angles of polygons always add up to 360 degrees.
A pentagon has 5 sides, so divide 360 degrees by 5 sides.
360/5 = 72
One exterior angle of a regular pentagon (all 5 sides and angles are equal) is 72 degrees.
