Answer:

Courtney is bringing 8 snacks

Step-by-step explanation:

Chelsea's snacks are represented as 2x.

2x means <u>2 · (a number)</u>

If Chelsea brought <u>16 snacks</u> and the <u>amount of snacks represented by 2x</u>, we have to figure out <u>what times 2 equals 16.</u>

In order to find out, we have to <u>divide</u>.

16 ÷ 8 = 2

This means 2 · 8 = 16

Since the amount of snacks Courtney brings is represented as <u>"x"</u>, she would have brought 8 snacks.

Hope this helped! :)

Flauer [41]
2(x + y) + 3(x + y)

first distribute:
(multiply 2 into everything in the first parenthesis, and 3 into everything in the second)
2x + 2y + 3x + 3y
Second simplify (add all like terms (adding in this case) )
(2x + 3x) + (2y +3y)
5x + 5y

your answer is: 5x + 5y

The hands of a clock suggest an angle whose measure is continually changing. How many degrees does a minute hand move through du
katen-ka-za [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

oh, come one ! you can literally see that one ...

a full rotation on a clock is a full circle and stands therefore for 360°.

for the minute hand these 360° represent 60 minutes.

4 minutes of 60 is a fraction, a ratio, and the same ratio applies then also to 360°.

4/60 = 1/15

360 × 1/15 = 24°

so, 4 minutes represent 24°.

Line JM intersects line GK at point N. Which statements are true about the figure? Check all that apply.
ki77a [65]
See attached image

First, we must know this: Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 90°, while supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 180°. That been said, the only statement which is true is the second statement, <span>MNL is complementary to KNL

Reasons why others are False
</span>GNJ is supplementary to JNK, not complementary
MNG is supplementary to GNJ, not complementary
LNJ (not KNJ) <span>is supplementary to MNL
</span>GNM is equal to JNK, not supplementary
