Answer:

The student incorrectly used the Distributive property!

Step-by-step explanation:

The Distributive property says a(b+c)=ab+ac

In this problem the answer SHOULD be 3n-15, however the <u>student forgot to distribute the 3 to the -5</u>!

Answer: The student did not distribute correctly

Step-by-step explanation: The student did not distribute correctly. The student has 3n correct because he multiplied 3 by n but -5 is not correct. He was supposed to distribute the 3 to the -5 to get -15.

Solve this system of linear equations.separate the x- and y-value with a comma. -6x=-4-y -7x=-22+y.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

(2,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Add them together to get rid of the y.

-6x = -4 - y

-7x = -22 + y

=

-13x = -26

Then solve for x.

-13x/-13 = -26/-13

x = 2

Now plug in the x value into either equation and solve for y.

-7(2) = -22 + y

-14 = -22 + y

-14 + 22 = -22 + 22 + y

8 = y

So...

x = 2

y = 8

Jerome works as a waiter. He earns $80 each weekend plus 15% in tips based on the cost of the meals served.
Softa [21]

Answer:

He gets paid $80 each weekend, and a 15% with tips.

you would need to figure out the tips, by taking the $725 and timesing it by .15 for the percent.

which would be 108.75

you would now take 108.75 and add 80 to get what he made that weekend.

108.75+80 = 188.75 dollars
