SSSSS [86.1K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: 18x - 2(3x + 1) = 5x - 16

First, lets distribute the -2 to the 3x and 1.

18x - 6x - 2 = 5x - 16

Now, we combine like terms.

12x - 2 = 5x - 16

Next, we add 2 to each side.

12x = 5x -14

Now, we subtract 5x from both sides.

7x = -14

Finally, we divide by 7 on both sides.

x = -2

  Statements:                             Reasons:

  18x - 2(3x + 1) = 5x - 16            Given

  18x - 6x - 2 = 5x - 16                Distributive Property of Equality

  12x - 2 = 5x - 16                       Combine like terms

  12x = 5x -14                              Addition Property of Equality

  7x = -14                                     Subtraction Property of Equality

  x = -2                                        Division Property of Equality

Answer:

28m⁷n⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first multiply 14 by 2. You would then multiply (which is really addition when it comes to exponents) your like-term exponents.

(14m²n⁵)(2m⁵) =28m⁷n⁵

14(2) = 28

m² + m⁵=m⁷

n⁵ + 0 = n⁵

1. What is the difference between the altitude rule and the leg rule?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle forms two triangles that are similar to each other and to the original triangle

The Leg Rule (or Leg geometric mean theorem) relates the length of each leg of a right triangle with the segments projected by them on the hypotenuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse. Notice the triangle used with this rule. The leg of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the hypotenuse and the projection of the leg on the hypotenuse.
