Distributive property lets you distribute 3(3+x)
so this is the property, note: xy=x times y=x(y)
a(b+c)=(ab)+(ac)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the geometric mean theorem:
The altitude on the hypotenuse is the geometric mean of the two segments it creates.
In your triangle, the two segments are MP and PO.
MP + PO = MO
MP + 3 = 15
MP = 12
Then,

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hours it takes the larger hose to fill the pool. Then each hour, it contributes 1/x of the pool volume. Similarly, the other hose contributes a volume of 1/(1.5x) each hour.
The two hoses together contribute a volume of 1/9 of the pool volume each hour:
1/x +1/(1.5x) = 1/9
2.5/(1.5x) = 1/9 . . . . combine the fractions
22.5/1.5 = x . . . . . . multiply by 9x
15 = x
It takes the larger hose 15 hours to fill the pool alone.
Answer:
A and C
Step-by-step explanation:
Both A and C are the same shape, same size, but C is flipped over. If you were to cut out the two shapes and put them over one another, they would be the same. You can also count the blocks that are in the shape itself to see if they match.
The longer side on both has 2.5 blocks in it, the side is two blocks tall, and the smaller line has 1.5 of the block shown.
I'll will implement a sketch to show you what I mean and submit it here. Look at it if you are still confused
I hope this helps!
