Answer:

u = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are not shown. So, I will solve from scratch

Given

7(u -5) = 21

Required

Solve, with steps

7(u -5) = 21

Apply distributive  property

7u - 7 * 5 =21

7u - 35 =21

Collect like terms

7u = 35 + 21

7u = 56

Divide both sides by 7

\frac{7u}{7} = \frac{56}{7}

u = 8

a triangle has a base of 15 inches and an area of 82.5 square inches. What is the height of the triangle
horrorfan [7]

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height.

Replace are and base to get:

82.5 = 1/2 x 15 x height

Multiply both sides by 2:

165 = 15 x height

Divide both sides by 15:

Height = 165 / 15

Height = 11 inches.

Rewrite the expression 2(x + 5) using the Distributive Property.​
ehidna [41]

Answer:

2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To expand (using the distributive property) <u>multiply</u> the number outside the bracket i.e. in this case '2', with the <u>values inside the brackets</u>.

So multiply '2' and 'x' and '2' and 5' and add or subtract on basis of whether the second value is positive or negative.

So

2(x + 5)

= (2*x)+(2*5)

=2x+10

<em>extention note:</em> <u>be careful</u> when the symbol within the equation within the brackets is a subtraction because it implies that the second value would instead be a negative number and should be treated as such.

an example

2(x-5)

= (2*x)+(2*-5)

=2x -10

Anyhow, I hope this helped!
