Use the distributive property with factoring to find the equivalent expression. 24n + 32w = (3n + w)

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

24n + 32w = (3n + w)

We're asked to use distributive property, this means that we have to find a way that the given expression on the left hand side is equal to the given incomplete exresssion on the right hand side. In so doing, we're fulfilling the distributive property tag.

Given 3n, 3 factorises 24 into 8, and at the same time, factorises 32 into 4. Thus, we can then conclude that

24n + 32w = 8(3n + 4w)

One number is 4 times another number. The sum of their reciprocals is 5. What are the two numbers?

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The two number are:

$y=1,\:x=\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the first number

let 'y' be the second number

Given that one number is 4 times another number, the first equation is

$y = 4x$

Next, the sum of their reciprocals is 5, so

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=5$

Now, we have the system of equations

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x\\ \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=5\end{bmatrix}$

Let us solve the system of equations

$\begin{bmatrix}y=4x\\ \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=5\end{bmatrix}$

substitute y = 4x in the equation $\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=5$

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{4x}=5$

Least Common Multiple of x, 4x: 4x

Adjust fractions based on L.C.M

$\frac{4}{4x}+\frac{1}{4x}=5$

$\frac{4+1}{4x}=5$

$\:\frac{5}{4x}=5$

Multiply both sides by 4x

$\frac{5}{4x}\cdot \:4x=5\cdot \:4x$

Simplify

$5=20x$

switch sides

$20x=5$

Divide both sides by 20

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{5}{20}$

Simplify

$x=\frac{1}{4}$

For y = 4x, substitute $x=\frac{1}{4}$

$y = 4x$

$y=4\cdot \frac{1}{4}$

$y=1$

Therefore, the two number are:

$y=1,\:x=\frac{1}{4}$

<u>Verification:</u>

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=5$

substituting $y=1,\:x=\frac{1}{4}$

$\:\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}}+\frac{1}{1}=\:5\:\:$

$4+1=5$

$5 = 5$

L.H.S = R.H.S

and

$y = 4x$

substituting $y=1,\:x=\frac{1}{4}$

$y\:=\:4\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)$

$y=1$
