It is equivalent because of the distributive property. If you multiply 4 by x and y, you get 4x and 4y.
4x + 4y = 4x + 4y
Answer:
If Sanjay wants to make 24 but the recipe makes 8, then do the recipe 3 times to get 24 (8 x 3 = 24)
135 x 3 = 405
1 x 3 = 3
2 x 3 = 6
130 x 3 = 390
1 x 3 = 3
2 x 3 = 6
So Sanjay would need the following to make 24 pancakes:
405g flour
3tsp baking powder
6tbsps sugar
390mL milk
3 eggs
6tbsps oil
3x -1 = 11
3x = 11 + 1
3x = 12
x = 4
I take it by, x2 + x, you mean 2x + x, since x = 4, then
2x + x = 2(4) + (4) = 8 + 4 =12
I believe the answer is 15 because if you divide 270/18 you get 15 <span />
