Using the distributive property simplify this -2(x-3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago
4 0

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

-2 (x-3)

By definition we have that the distributive property establishes that:

a (b + c) = ab + ac

So, if we have:

-2 (x-3)

We take into account the law of multiplication of signs:

- * + = -\\- * - = +

So:

-2 (x-3) = - 2x + 2 * 3 = -2x + 6

Answer:

-2x + 6

The moon takes 28 days to orbit around the earth going at a distance of 2,413,000. How many kilometers does it take for the moon
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

As per the statement;

The moon takes 28 days to orbit around the earth going at a distance of 2,413,000 km

From the above information,

The ratio between Distance and Days is; \frac{2413000}{28}

then,

the distance it takes for the moon to travel one day of its orbit around the earth we have;

\frac{2413000}{28} \times 1 = \frac{2413000}{28}=86178.57 km.

Therefore, the distance in kilometer does the moon cover in 1 day is 86178.57 km

lisov135 [29]
To determine the answer of Part A draw the equilateral triangle and the to determine the coordinates of of the third charge use that triangle.
To calculate the gravitational field strength in part B from each of the charges use the following equation.

E=kcq/r2

If you would add those values then you can use the symmetry about the y axis to make the vector addition a litter easier.<span />

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding segments of similar triangles are proportional. Here, the similar triangles are ...

  ΔABC ~ ΔADE

so the relationship between the sides is ...

  BC/BA = DE/DA . . . . . . we put the unknown value in the numerator

  x/4 = 12/(4+8)

  x = 4(1) = 4

The length of side x is 4.
