23 apples are remaining after he gave the 4 to jimmy
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember how absolute values turn everything inside of it into a positive number? Like |-4|=4 and |4|=4 as well.
Well, it works the same for equations.
When you have an absolute value equation like this, you have to split it into two parts.
The positive version
| d-3.5 | ≤ 1.5
and the negative version
|-(d-3.5)| ≤ 1.5
solve for the value of d in both equation.
<em>Remember that you have to flip the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number</em>
I assume you know how to graph the inequality once you get the value for d.
d≤5 and d≥2
so
2 ≤ d ≤ 5
meaning d is between 2 and 5.
Answer:
Everything should simplify down to -9a-3 (your answer)
Step-by-step explanation:
Distributive property is basically <em>multiplying the outside number into the inside</em> parenthesis (). Basically #(a)--->#a or #(a+b)---> #a+#b
Since you're not ask to solve for anything but simplify, just multiply 3 to -3a and -1.....
so 3*-3a is -9a and 3*-1 is -3 and you have 3(-3a-1)= -9a-3
