Use distributive property to write an expression that is equivalent to each expression. 8(-x-1/2)

Mathematics
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The distributive property teaches us how to properly multiply in examples like the answer I have given.

In my example : 2 * (4 + 12x) = 8 + 24x

We would take the 2 that is on the outside of the equation in the parenthesis and multiply it first with the 4, and then with the 12x. This results in 8 + 24x.  

A simplified version would be to just remove the x.  

When we do that we see that 8 + 24 is equal to 32.

What it also demonstrates is that:

2 * (4 + 12) is the same as saying 8 + 24, both equal 32.

<h2><em>so saying that you have to find something to be equal to your equation. hope it helps.</em></h2>

stepladder [879]

Answer:

4x+3y=23

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+3y=23

2x+6y=34 multiply equation by 2 to get x values equivalent, so

4x+12y=68 now subtract firs equation from this

-(4x+3y=23)

so 9y=45 and y=5

now find x:

4x+3(5)=23

4x+15=23

4x=8

x=2

So, hamburgers cost $2 and chicken nuggets $5.

EXPLAIN HOW YOU WRITE PRODUCTS WHEN THEY ARE NOT ENOUGH DIGITS IN THE PRODUCT TO PLACE THE DECIMAL POINT?
Andrews [41]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

You fill in the missing spaces with zeros.

Explanation:

When we multiply decimals, we multiply the digits the same way we would whole numbers. When we get the product, we count the number of digits in the problem that are behind a decimal point; this will be the number of decimal places in the answer. If we do not have enough spaces, we replace them with zeros.

For instance, if we multiply two numbers that are each in the hundredths place, we will have 2+2 = 4 decimal numbers in our answer. If our answer gives us only 3 digits, we place a zero in front and then place the decimal.
