First ask yourselfhat needs to be dristributed.
That would be -1 (x-9)
To distribute you have to multiply the number out side of the parentheses (-1) by each term inside the parentheses( x and -9)
-1×x=-x
-1×-9=9
Now the expression is
-x+9+4x
To simplify you have to combine like terms (4x and-x)
4x-x=3x
Your answer is 9+3x or 3(3+x).
The difference is the result of a subtraction problem.
We are given two values that are being subtracted: 54 and a number, represented by 
So, represent this mathematically with 
.
Answer:
You can calculate net change by subtracting the current day's closing price for an asset from the closing price of the previous day!
Step-by-step explanation:
(What net change is) The net change theorem states that when a quantity changes, the final value equals the initial value plus the integral of the rate of change. Net change can be a positive number, a negative number, or zero.
NOT MY ANSWER OR WHATEVER I GOT IT FROM G0OGLE
Since the buses travel in opposite directions, the speed at which they distance themselves is the sum of their speeds.
One bus travels at speed s.
The other bus travels at speed s + 15.
The sum of the speeds is s + s + 15 = 2s + 15
speed = distance/time
distance = speed * time
366 = (2s + 15) * 2
183 = 2s + 15
168 = 2s
s = 84
The slower bus travels at 84 km/h.
s + 15 = 84 + 15 = 99
The faster bus travels at 99 km/h.
Check:
In 2 hours, the slower bus travels 2 * 84 km = 168 km
In 2 hours, the faster bus travels 2 * 99 km = 198 km
In 2 hours, the buses are 198 km + 168 km = 366 km apart.
Our answer is correct.
This problem boils down to 5/6 - 1/4
To subtract these fractions you need a common denominator.
I'll use 12
The first fraction becomes 10/12 and the second fraction becomes 3/12
10/12-3/12 = 7/12
So Jacob is 7/12 of a foot taller than Linda.
Also note than since 12 inches = 1 foot, you could say Jacob is 7 inches taller than Linda
