Steps to solve:

x/5 = -9

~Multiply 5 to both sides

x/5 * 5 = -9 * 5

~Simplify

Answer:

x = -45

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply 5 to both sides:

(x/5) * 5 = (-9) * 5

x = -9 * 5

x = -45

x = -45 is your answer.

disributivity of multiplication over addition for rational numbers solve : -3/4 , 2/3 and -5/6 = 1/8 ? how ?

Nezavi [6.7K]

The distributive property of multiplication over addition for rational numbers is (a) -3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)} = [-3/4 × 2/3] + [-3/4 × (-5/6)]

<h3>Complete question</h3>

Which of the following is an example of distributive property of multiplication over addition for rational numbers

(a) -3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)} = [-3/4 × 2/3] + [-3/4 × (-5/6)]

(b) -3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)} = [3/4 × 2/3] - (-5/6)

(d) -3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)} = {2/3 + (-5/6)} - 3/4

<h3>How to determine the correct distributive property?</h3>

The distributive property of multiplication states that:

a * (b + c) = (a * b) + (a * c)

From the given question, we have:

-3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)}

This means that:

a = -3/4

b = 2/3

c = -5/6

Recall that a * (b + c) = (a * b) + (a * c)

So, we have:

-3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)} = [-3/4 × 2/3] + [-3/4 × (-5/6)]

Hence, the distributive property of multiplication over addition for rational numbers is (a) -3/4 × {2/3 + (-5/6)} = [-3/4 × 2/3] + [-3/4 × (-5/6)]

How many different committees can be formed from 99 teachers and 3434 students if the committee consists of 33 teachers and 22

xenn [34]

<span>There are 47,124 different committees you can select.

Explanation:
The number of combinations of 9 teachers taken 3 at a time is given by
</span> $_9C_3=\frac{9!}{3!6!}=84$ <span>

The number of combinations of 34 students taken 2 at a time is given by
</span> $_{34}C_2=\frac{34!}{2!32!}=561$ <span>

Together this makes 84*561 = 47124 combinations.</span>

(a-1)*(a+1) How does the expansion of this thing works?

kirill115 [55]

This is a simple formula:(a-b)*(a+b)= a^2-b^2
And it goes like this for your example: (a-1)*(a+1)=a*a+a-a-1*1=a^2-1^2=a^2-1
