Answer: -89

Step-by-step explanation:

So your equation is

- 9(a) - 7(x) - 9(c) - 9(b) - 7(y)

You know that (a) (b) and (c) = -1

You also know that (x) and (y) = 7

So, when you put this into the equation, it will look like this:

- 9(-1) - 7(7) - 9(-1) - 9(-1) - 7(7)

When you work that out you will get left with your answer, which is -89.

7(4x - 2) - 4(2x - 8)

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

20x + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the distributive property, where we essentially take the sum of the product of the outside number with each of the inside terms.

In 7(4x - 2), 7 is the outside number and 4x and -2 are the inside numbers, so:

7(4x - 2) = 7 * 4x + 7 * (-2) = 28x - 14

In 4(2x - 8), 4 is the outside number and 2x and -8 are the inside numbers, so:

4(2x - 8) = 4 * 2x + 4 * (-8) = 8x - 32

Now, we have:

28x - 14 - (8x - 32) = 28x - 14 - 8x + 32 = 20x + 18

The answer is 20x + 18.

if a motercycle is moving at a constant speed down the highway of 40 km/hr, how long would it the motorcycle to travel 10 km

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the motorcycle goes at a speed of 40 km/hr.

The question asks for how long it would take to travel 10 km.

Well, there are 60 minutes in an hour, since we will be translating into minutes.

Also, 10 km is 1/4 of 40 km, so it would make sense that the time length would be 1/4 of an hour as well.

1/4 of 60 minutes is 15 minutes. So it takes 15 minutes for the motorcycle to travel 10 km.

Now, if all this wordy stuff is too much to comprehend, you can also solve using proportional relationships.

$\frac{40km}{60min}=\frac{10km}{xmin}$

Now cross multiply:

$40km*xmin=10km*60min\\40x=600$

Divide both sides by 40:

$\frac{40x}{40}=\frac{600}{40}\\x=15$

Again, this shows that it wouls take 15 minutes for the motorcycle to travel 10 km.

Mrs Jenkins is buying pizza for the soccer team after practice. She estimates that each player will eat three eighths if a pizza

____ [38]

Answer:

6 3/8 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

She estimates that each player will eat three eighths if a pizza and there are 17 players.

Therefore, we have to multiply 3/8 by 17:

3 / 8 * 17 = 6.375 pizzas = 6 3/8 pizzas

They will eat 6 3/8 pizzas.
