Use similar triangles (see the picture I drew at the bottom)
Division is repeated subtraction, just like multiplication is repeated addition. If you divide 50 by 10, you get 5. This is also the question: How many times do you have to subtract 10 from 50 to get 0?
Answer:
<h3>
1) 7x - 5
</h3><h3>
2) 9y - 18
</h3><h3>
3) 0.5n + 4n
</h3><h3>
4) 2(w³+23)</h3><h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
1)
The product of seven and a number x: 7·x = 7x
<u>Five less than the product of seven and a number x:</u>
<h3>
7x - 5
</h3>
2)
nine times a number y: 9·y = 9y
<u>The difference of nine times a number y and eighteen:</u>
<h3>
9y - 18
</h3>
3)
half a number n: 0.5n
four times the number: 4·n = 4n
<u>Half a number n increased by four times the number:</u>
<h3>
0.5n + 4n
</h3>
4)
a number w cubed: w³
the sum of a number w cubed and twenty-three: w³+23
<u>Twice the sum of a number w cubed and twenty-three:</u>
<h3>2(
w³+23)</h3>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
13 = 6+7
276*13 = 276*(7+6)
= 276*7 + 276 *6 {distributive property upod addition}
= 1932 + 1656
= 3588
Answer:
The length of the pipe = 17 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
length = 15 feet
width = 8 feet
Pythagorean theorem,
(diagonal)² = (length)² +(width)² {all angles of rectangle are 90°}
= 15² + 8²
= 225 + 64 = 289
diagonal = √289 = √ 17 * 17
= 17 feet
