Answer:
The expressions are not equivalent because -3(2)(5-4)+3(2-6)=-18 and -12(2)-6=-30
Step-by-step explanation:
Two expressions are said to be equal if after a number is substituted to the expression, they produce the same result (that is they have the same value).
To determine whether -3x(5-4)+3(x-6) is equivalent to -12x-6, we have to substitute the same number to the expression and see if it produces the same result.
Substituting 2 to the first expression gives:
-3×2(5-4) + 3(2 - 6) = -6 - 12 = -18
Substituting 2 to the second expression gives:
-12(2) - 6 = -24 - 6 = -30
Since -3×2(5-4) + 3(2 - 6) = -6 - 12 = -18 and -12(2) - 6 = -24 - 6 = -30, the expressions are not equivalent because they do not produce the same result.
Answer:
24 as the denominator.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 goes into 24, 4 times.
8 goes into 24, 3 times.
Add up the 13+12 to get 25 then divide 500,000 by 25 to get 2,000. Then multiply it by 13 to get 26000 and by 12 to get 24000. Subtract 26000 minus 24000 to get 2000. 2000 is your answer.
