Answer:

$\boxed{x = p(m - n)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$= > m = n + \frac{x}{p} \\ \\ = > m = (n \times \frac{p}{p} ) + \frac{x}{p} \\ \\ = > m = \frac{pn}{p} + \frac{x}{p} \\ \\ = > m = \frac{pn + x}{p} \\ \\ = > mp = pn + x \\ \\ = > x + pn = pm \\ \\ = > x = pm - pn \\ \\ = > x = p(m - n)$

sertanlavr [38]

Call the price of a book 'b'. We know that lunch cost $3.25 so let's say $L=3.25$ we also know the total is $40. So we can write:
$T=L+5b+7$
or
$40=3.25+5b+7$
and then solve for 'b':
$29.75=5b$
$b=\frac{29.75}{5} = 5.95$

A book cost $5.95

Which shows how the distributive property can be used to evaluate 7x8 4/5?

Yuri [45]

Answer:

61 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

we realize that 8 4/5 can be written as [8 + (4/5)]

hence 7 x 8 4/5

= 7 x [8 + (4/5)]

= 7 [8 + (4/5)] (use the distributive property, see attached for reference)

= 7(8) + 7(4/5)
