Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

If we where to simplfy the 4(5d - 4) it would be 20d - 16 and that is equivalent to 20d - 16.

Answer: Yes they are equivalent

--------------

The reason why is because

4(5d - 4) = 4*(5d) + 4(-4) = 20d - 16

You multiply the outer term 4 by each term inside the parenthesis

4 times 5d = 4*5d = 20d

4 times -4 = 4*(-4) = -16

I'm using the distributive property.

---------------

Alternatively, you can start with 20d - 16 and factor out the GCF 4. Divide each term by 4 to get

20d/4 = 5d

-16/4 = -4

So after dividing each term of 20d-16 by 4, we get 5d-4 and the 4 will be pulled out to say 20d - 16 = 4(5d - 4)

As you can probably see, factoring is just thinking of distributing in reverse. Instead of multiplying each term by the same number, you divide each term by the same number. You can distribute the 4 back in to check your factorization.

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment joining the given points (0,2) and (6,4)
djyliett [7]

The coordinates of the midpoint are the average of the coordinates of the given points.

So, the x coordinate of the midpoint is the average of the x coordinates of the given point:

\dfrac{0+6}{2} = \dfrac{6}{2} = 3

And similarly, the y coordinate of the midpoint is the average of the y coordinates of the given point:

\dfrac{2+4}{2} = \dfrac{6}{2} = 3

So, the midpoint is the point (3,3)

Burka [1]

Answer:

Option B) 18 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n(A) be the shoppers who purchased at an online store

Let n(B)  be the shoppers who purchased at a locally-owned store

Let n(C)  be the shoppers who purchased at  a big-box store

n(A ∩ B) is the shoppers who purchased at an online store and at a locally-owned store

n(B ∩ C) be the shoppers who purchased at a locally-owned store and at  a big-box store

n(C ∩ A)  is the shoppers who purchased at an online store and at a locally-owned store and at an online store

From the Venn diagram,

n(A) = 109

n(B) = 34

n(C) =  107

n() = 38

n(B ∩ C) = 17

n(C ∩ A) = 57

On Comparing the Venn Diagrams, we could find that  shoppers made a purchase at an online store, a locally-owned store, and a big-box store [n( A ∩ B∩ C)] = 18

Allushta [10]

Answer:

x/8 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 8 containers have the larger capacity as the 2 totals are x and the other containers are 16 in total.

Capacity of each of the large containers = x/8 gallons.

What is the ratio of surface <br> area to volume?
Katena32 [7]
The ratio of surface area to volume is the amount of surface area per unit volume of a thing. This is an important value in various topics. In chemistry, this is an important value for chemical reactions. It can show reactivity of a solid material. Also, it has found some importance in biology because it shows how the cells are affected by the environment where that cell is found.<span />
