Distributive Property

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-6(t + 2) = 18

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>t</u></em>

  1. [Distributive Property] Distribute -6:                                                             -6t - 12 = 18
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 12 on both sides:                                 -6t = 30
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -6 on both sides:                                t = -5

What is the solution to the system of equation <br><br> -2x+6y=-38<br> 3x-4y=32
Alla [95]

Answer:

x= 4

y= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+6y=-38    equation 1

3x-4y=32     equation 2

using equation 1 we have:

-2x+6y=-38  

6y +38 = 2x

3y + 19 = x   equation 3

using equation 3 in equation 2 we have:

3(3y + 19) - 4y = 32

9y + 57 -4y =32

5y = 32 -57

5y = -25

y= -25/5

y = -5

so we have:

3y + 19 = x  

3(-5) +19 = x

x= 4

<h3>1.</h3>

The picture shows 5 groups of 3 bars. Each bar represents 1/10. We take the picture to mean that ...

... (15/10) / 5 = 3/10

In decimal:

... 1.5 / 5 = 0.3

<h3>2.</h3>

The picture shows 3 groups of 2 bars. Each bar represents 1/10. We take the picture to mean that ...

... (6/10) / 3 = 2/10

In decimal:

... 0.6 / 3 = 0.2

<h3>3.</h3>

The picture shows 4 groups, each consisting of 1 large square, 1 bar, and 4 small squares. We take the picture to mean that ...

... (4 + 4/10 + 16/100) / 4 = 1 + 1/10 + 4/100

In decimal:

... 4.56 / 4 = 1.14

Please note that 16/100 is equivalent to 1/10 + 6/100. In order to do the division, one of the 1/10 bars needed to be changed into 10 small squares, 10/100.

<h3>4.</h3>

The picture shows 3 groups, each consisting of 1 large square, 3 bars, and 2 small squares. We take the picture to mean that ...

... (3 + 9/10 +6/100) / 3 = 1 +3/10 + 2/100

In decimal:

... 3.96 / 3 = 1.32

What value of x and y will make the polygon a parallelogram?
o-na [289]
In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other.
That being the case,
6x = 72

x = 12

AND

x-5 = y
72 -5 = 67

y=67
x = 72

and the diagonals measure
144 and 134

X-3 and 2x-1 are factors of 2x^3-px^2-2qx+q. Find the values of p and q.
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

p =1

q = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x³ - px² + 2qx + q

(x - 3) is a factor of f(x)

⇒f(3)  = 0

2(3)³ - p*3² - 2q*3 +q = 0

2*27 - 9p - 6q + q = 0

    54 - 9p - 5q = 0

            -9p - 5q = -54 -------------------(I)

(2x - 1) is a factor of f(x)

2x - 1 = 0

      2x = 1

        \st x = \dfrac{1}{2}

f(1/2) = 0

2*(\dfrac{1}{2})^{3}-p*(\dfrac{1}{2})^{2}-2q*\dfrac{1}{2}+q=0\\\\2*\dfrac{1}{8}-p*\dfrac{1}{4}-q+q = 0\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}p =0\\\\[Multiply the entire equation by 4]\\\\4*\dfrac{1}{4}-4*\dfrac{1}{4}p=0\\\\

1 - p = 0

    -p = -1

p = 1

Substitute p =1 in equation (I)

-9*1 - 5q = -54

 -9 - 5q = -54

      -5q = -54 + 9

      -5q = -45

           q = -45/(-5)

q = 9
