In this case u can’t use the distributive property. U just multiple whats in the parenthesis (39•5)=195 and that’s ur answer.
Let’s say if the problem said 5(2+1) u can’t use the distributive property bc u have to do what’s in the parentheses first. 5(3)=15
But If u had a problem like 2(4x+6) then u can use the distributive property. This is bc u can’t add 4x+6 bc they aren’t like terms. So u multiple the 2 by 4x which is 8x and the 2 by 6 which is 12 then ur answer would be : 8x+12
Answer:
A computer costs $225 and a printer $150.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c be the cost of a computer and p the cost of a printer, then:
3c + p = 825
4c + 2p = 1200
Multiply the first equation by -2:
-6c - 2p = -1650
Add this to the second equation:
-2c = -450
c = 225.
Now substitute c = 225 in the first equation:
3*225 + p = 825
p = 825 - 675 = 150.
Answer: The number of girls in the auditorium is represented by the algebraic expression y=(4x +72) /5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:
- <em>Number of boys added: 18
</em>
- <em>Ratio of boys to girls: 5:4
</em>
So, the total number of boys is:
x + 18
Number of girls = y
Number of boys / number of girls = 5/4
(x+18) /y = 5/4
Solving for "y"
4 (x +18) =5 y
4x +72 = 5y
(4x +72) /5 = y
The number of girls in the auditorium is represented by the algebraic expression y=(4x +72) /5
