The expression for the total amount of apples is 29x
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Sarah has 12 bags of apples
Mikaela has 17 bags of apples
Each bag has the same amount of apples inside
Let "x" be the number of apples in each bag
Then,
Sarah has 12x apples
Mikaela has 17x apples
<em><u>Wrie an expression for the total amount of apples</u></em>
Total amount of apples = 12x + 17x
<em><u>Then simplify it using the distributive property to create an equivalent expression</u></em>
By distributive property,
a(b + c) = ab + bc
Therefore,
Thus expression for the total amount of apples is 29x
15.9876 you might think I'm wrong but if you divide you can get the same result as your true answer which is 15.7075. hope I helped!:3
By the trend that is being given above, the population of New Jersey will only be 99.88% of the population from the previous year. It may be calculated through the following equation,
P(n) = P(0) x (1 - r)^n
Substituting the values from the given above,
P(n) = 79,318 x (0.9988)^(2015 - 2006)
= 78465.47
Thus, the population will approximately be 78,466.
Subtract three every time
Because a rectangle has four sides and the opposite sides are the same length, you can simply multiply each of the given sides (5 5/8 feet and 6 1/4 feet) by 2, and then add them together.
5 5/8 × 2 = 11 1/4.
6 1/4 × 2 = 12 1/2
11 1/4 + 12 1/2 = 23 3/4 or 23.75
Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 23.75 feet.
