(6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

6 - (2 - 1) = 6 - 1 = 5

The associative rule doesn't work for subtraction because you get different results when you move the parentheses.

D+100+40=180
d=180-100-40=40 (sum of all angles)
e= 100+40= 140 (exterior angle)
180-140=40
C+50+40=180
C=180-50-40= 90 (right angle)
A=50
B=180-90-50= 40

You can run 3 3/5 miles in 40 minutes. <br><br> What is your unit rate?

fiasKO [112]

Unit rate is how many units of work can you do in 1 unit of time

3 and 3/5=3+3/5=15/5+3/5=18/5

(18/5mi)/40mins
divide by 40
aka times 1/40
(18/5)(1/40)=18/200=9/100=0.9/10=0.09/1
0.09 miles per minute

What is the reason for each step in the solution of the equation? 19=5x−119=5x−1 drag and drop the reasons into the boxes to cor

shutvik [7]

The steps are duplicated.Then, first I will write the steps in the right form:

19 = 5x - 1

20 = 5x

4 = x

Now, I will write the steps with the justification

19 = 5x - 1.... start

20 = 5x ..... Reason: addtion property of equality (you get this by adding +1 to both sides of the previous equality)

4 = x .... Reason: division property of equality (you get this by dividing by 5 both sides of the previous equality)
