Answer:

3 1/2 houses

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate we must divide 4 by 10

4 hours divided by 10 house = 1/4

1/4 houses per hour

8 hours times 0.4= 3.2 houses

Answer:

20 houses

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s make a proportion using this setup:

houses/hours=houses/hour

We know that 10 houses can be cleaned in 4 hours. We don’t know how many houses can be cleaned in 8 hours, so we can say x houses can be cleaned in 8 hours.

10 houses/4 hours= x houses/8 hours

10/4=x/8

Now we have to solve for x, by getting x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to both sides.

x is being divided by 8. The opposite of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides by 8

8(10/4)=(x/8)8

8(10/4)=x

8(2.5)=x

20=x

20 houses can be cleaned in 8 hours.

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5y + 6y + 7y = 18y......any numbers that add(or subtract) to equal 18, stick them before the y....

or it could be : 10y + 10y - 2y = 18y or 5y + 10y + 3y or 30y - 20y + 8y....I could go on forever...lol

Simplify x^2+xy-yx+y^2 + y^2+yz-zy+z^2 + z^2+zx-xz+x^2
Artemon [7]

Answer:

2x^2 + 2y^2 + 2z^2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+xy-yx+y^2 + y^2+yz-zy+z^2 + z^2+zx-xz+x^2

First step is to put all the same ones together

( FYI, xy and yx is the same thing, just like how

2 x 3 and 3 x 2 is the same thing) this time I'll bracket the groups to make it easier on the eyes

(x^2 +x^2) + (xy - xy) +( y^2 + y^2) + (yz - yz) +

(z^2 +z^2) + (zx - zx)

2x^2 + 2y^2 + 2z^2

All the others just cancel themselves out, for example, xy-xy

When anything minus themselves it will become 0
