Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property does not appear to be involved in this question.

Let n represent the number of Noah's pencils. Then Andrew's total is ...

  3n +5 = 17

  3n = 12 . . . . . subtract 5 from both sides

  n = 4 . . . . . .  divide both sides by 3

Noah has 4 pencils.

Two of the angles in a triangle measure 57º and 25°. What must be the measure of the
ira [324]

The measure of the third angle in the triangle is 104 degrees

<h3>How to determine the measure of the third angles?</h3>

Let the three angles in the triangle be x, y and z.

Such that:

x = 51

y = 25

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

So, we have:

x + y  + z = 180

Substitute known values

51 + 25 + z = 180

Evaluate the sum

76 + z = 180

Subtract 76 from both sides

z = 104

Hence, the measure of the third angle is 104 degrees
