"Use the distributive property for

The distribute property is used to simplify an expression/equation. This is done by multiplying the contents of the parenthesis by the number outside of bracket.

Answer:
4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I subtracted the cost of the first pound from the final product (3.73 - 2.38) and I got 1.35. I then divided the 1.35 by .45 (the 45 cents) to figure out how many more pounds the package was from the initial 1 pounds. 1.35/.45 is 3, plus the 1 pound from the beginning makes 4 pounds in total.

Please, see the attached file.
Thanks.
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x-8y=40
This is a linear equation, and its graph is a right line, we only need two points, because by two points only goes trough only a right line:
1) For x=0→ -5(0)-8y=40
0-8y=40
-8y=40
Dividing both sides of the equation by -8:
-8y/(-8)=40/(-8)
y=-5
Point=(x,y)→Point=(0,-5)
2) For y=0→ -5x-8(0)=40
-5x-0=40
-5x=40
Dividing both sides of the equation by -5:
-5x/(-5)=40/(-5)
x=-8
Point=(x,y)→Point=(-8,0)
With these two points (0,-5) and (-8,0) we can draw the right line.
The picture is incomplete and the width is missing.
I am going to show you how to do it using any width.
The length shown is x + 4 and the width starts with - x.
Assume the width is - x + a.
Then the area of the rectangle with dimensions x + 4 and - x + a is calculated in this way:
1) given: (x + 4) (- x + a)
2) use distribuitive property: (x)(-x) + (x)(a) + (4)(-x) + (4)(a)
= - x^2 +ax -4x + 4a
3) Combine like terms: - x^2 + (a -4)x + 4a
If the polynomial missing were - x + 7, the answer would be:
- x^2 + (7 -4)x + 4(7) = - x^2 + 3x + 28
With this you are able to get the answer using the real values.
