I'm assuming your teacher wants you to distribute. If so, then you multiply the outer term 8 by each term inside (3a and 5). After that you add.
8 times 3a = 24a
8 times 5 = 40
So 8(3a+5) becomes 24a+40
We do not combine 24a and 40 as they are not like terms. So we leave 24a+40 as it is.
I think 7 would be the greatest common factor as they all have different variables. By factoring out 7 you should end up with, 2x+3y+z=
Answer:
465 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
So you have the ratio 1 cm: 110 mi, so you can multiply both sides of this ratio by 4.5 to get
4.5 cm: 465 mi
