Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of months is x, and number of pairs of shoes after each month is y.

7 new pairs of shoes every 2 months means that after each month:

y = 7/2 x

We need to add the 15 pairs from start.

y = 3.5x + 15

Which ofnthe following shows the correct use of distributive property when solving 1/3(33-x)=135,2

madam [21]

Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing options are:

$A. (33 - x) = \frac{1}{3} * 135.2\\\\B. (\frac{1}{3} *33) - \frac{1}{3} x = \frac{1}{3} * 135.2\\\\C.(\frac{1}{3} * 33) - \frac{1}{3} x = 135.2\\\\D. (\frac{1}{3} * 33) + \frac{1}{3} x = 135.2$

In order to solve this exercise you need to remember the following:

1. The Distributive property states that:

$a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\a(b-c)=ab-ac$

2. The multiplication of signs:

$(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-$

In this case the exercise gives you the following equation:

$\frac{1}{3}(33-x)=135.2$

Since you need to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value, the first step you must apply in the in the procedure is to eliminate the parentheses applying the Distributive property.

Then, you must multiply everyting inside the parentheses by $\frac{1}{3}$ .
