The right parenthesis has 4 + 5.
This can be simplified as: 
So, we have:


The left parenthesis has y + 7.
This cannot be simplified because y is a variable and 7 is a number.
<em>Hence, Sierra is correct.</em>
Answer:
6 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of pure concentrate used to make the punch. Then the total amount of concentrate in the punch is ...
0.20·10 +1.00x = 0.50(10+x)
x +2 = 0.5x +5 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
0.5x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2+0.5x
x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
6 liters of pure concentrate must be added to make a 50% punch.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use PEMDAS to complete the problem
PE doesn't matter, there's not parentheses or exponents
MD=Multiplication and Division. Do 3*6=9, now your problem looks like 9-4
AS=Addition and Subtraction. 9-4=5
Answer:
Since we have a^7 on the Numerator and after simplification... No "a" was left in the expression. It simply means that all a's in the numerator was eliminated and 2a's were left in the denominator.
To eliminate a^7 and still have 2a's as a remainder in the denominator... 'n' must be equal to 9
So
n=9
