We need to start from the innermost parenthesis and work our way out.
The first parenthesis is
. These are not like terms because one involves a variable, while the other is a constant term. Two terms are summable if they involve the same power(s) of the same variable(s).
So, we can take one step outwards, and we arrive to the square brackets. We have

and 2z and -13z are like terms, so we can sum them:

Finally we arrive to the whole expression, which is

Because, again, 5z and 11z were like terms.
Answer:
33 = x + (3x + 1)
x = bath bombs
So 3x is three times as many bath bombs, then the plus one makes it so that the soaps sold is more than three times the amount of bath bombs sold
Answer:
56 screws
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first we can find how many screws he needs.
So, if he uses 2 steps for 8 screws, and has 14 steps, that means he puts screws in 7 steps ( 14÷2)
then, if he uses 8 screws, each with 8 steps, we can do 8 times 7, which is 56 screws
Answer:
D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-4(8-3x)>or =6x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
open d bracket
-32+12x >or = 6x-8
collect like terms
12x-6x >or =-8+32
6x = 24
divide both sides by 6
x= 4
