Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This is an example of the distributive property. -3 multiplies both the 4x and the -12. The minus sign between them is NOT destroyed.

-3 * 4x = -12x

-3 * -12 = 36

Answer: - 12x + 36

Answer:

-12(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are only trying to simplify, you can factor out a 4 from (4x - 12).

The mean age and median age of 6 people in a room is 40 years. a person whose age is 60 years leaves the room. question 1. if po
FromTheMoon [43]
Mean = (total of contributors) / (number of contributors)

For the 6 people in the room, you have
   40 = (total of contributors) / 6
   (total of contributors) = 6*40 = 240

A 60-year-old left the room, decreasing the total of contributors by 60.
   (new total of contributors) = (total of contributors) - 60
   (new total of contributors) = 240 - 60 = 180

Then the new mean is
   (new mean) = (new total of contributors) / (new number of contributors)
   (new mean) = 180 / 6 = 36

The mean age of the remaining 5 people is 36.

Zinaida [17]
To find the answer, you must subtract 1632 and 74, which results in 1558, so the Transamerica Pyramid is 1558 ft tall. I hope this helps.
