Answer:
substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property states that:
a(b+c)=ab+bc.
or more generally: a(b+c+d)=ab+av+ad.
This is a very useful tool to perform multiplication.
For example, if we want to multiply 7 by 234, we can proceed as follows:
7*234=7(200+30+4)=7*200+7*30+7*4=1400+210+28=1610+28=1638
back to our problem,
4 * 24 = 4(20+4)=4*20+4*4=80+16=96 ($)
So, instead of multiplying 4 by 24, we multiplied 4 by 20 and 4, which is easier, and then added these together.
Answer:
4 * 24 = 4(20+4) [=4*20+4*4=80+16=96 ($)]
There are 64 people in the room.
Since the ratio for women increases 1 when 8 women enter the room, for every time there is 1 in the ratio there are 8 people. That means that originally you have to do 3x8 and 4x8. You get 24 and 32 which equals 56. Then when 8 more women enter the room, you get 64.
Answer: 10
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
varies directly means: 
Step 1: solve for k ⇒ 
Step 2: plug in the given value and k to solve for the missing value: 
42(5) = 21(x)

2(5) = x
10 = x
40 is considered an outlier since it it much further out on the data scale
Hope this helps!
