Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

4(9y - 5) = 10(3y + 17) - 40

Step 2: Solve for y

[Distributive Property] Distribute 4: 36y - 20 = 10(3y + 17) - 40
[Distributive Property] Distribute 10: 36y - 20 = 30y + 170 - 40
Combine like terms: 36y - 20 = 30y + 130
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 30y on both sides: 6y - 20 = 130
[Addition Property of Equality] Add 20 on both sides: 6y = 150
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 6 on both sides: y = 25

What number is halfway between 0.2 and 0.3

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

For numbers between 0.1 and 0.2, there is a 1 in the tenths' place: 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, and so on. For numbers between 0.2 and 0.3, there is a 2 in the tenths' place: 0.21, 0.22, 0.23, and so forth. For example, the number “seven and forty-two hundredths” can be written as 7.42.

Give an example of where you would use either the Commutative or Associative Property of Addition in a real world situation.

umka2103 [35]

So the best I could come up with is paper-rock-scissors; the operation takes two inputs and puts out the winner (assuming they are different).

So (paper rock) scissors= paper scissors = scissors,

But paper (rock scissors)= paper rock = paper.

This is a good example because it shows that associativity matters even outside of math.
