Problem 33
Use the distributive property on the side containing parentheses of each expression and compare it to the other side.
a) 3(5a + 3) = 15a + 9 not equal to 15a + 6
b) 2(7b - 2) = 14b - 4 not equal to 14b + 4
c) 5(2c + 3) = 10c + 15 not equal to 7c + 8
d) 3(d + 5/3) = 3d + 5 which is equal to 3d + 5
Answer for problem 33: d)
Problem 34

- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = 2x
x = -y + 6
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: y = 2(-y + 6)
- Distribute 2: y = -2y + 12
- Isolate <em>y</em> terms: 3y = 12
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 4
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define equation: x = -y + 6
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x = -4 + 6
- Add: x = 2
