Answer:
Commutative property of addition of rational numbers: Two rational numbers can be added in any order. Thus for any two rational numbers a/b and c/d, we have. (a/b + c/d) = (c/d + a/b)
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(6x+3)= -12(x+10)
<u><em>Let's do the first part:</em></u>
-4(6x+3)
<em>**distribute**</em>
-4 x 6x = -24x; -4 x 3 = -12 ->>> -24x - 12
<u><em>Let's do the second part:</em></u>
-12(x+10)
<em>**distribute**</em>
-12 x x = -12x; -12 x 10 = -120 ->>> -12x -120
-24x -12 = -12x - 120
<em>**Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign**</em>
-24x +12x -12 = -120
-12x - 12 = -120
-12x = 108
x = 108/-12
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a triangle is calculated by adding all three side lengths together
That means x + 3 + x + 4 + x + 1 = 17 add the like terms
3x + 8 = 17
3x = 9
x = 3
BC = x + 3 ➡ 6
CD = x + 4 ➡ 7
BD = x + 1 ➡ 4
-- After dog ate 1/2 of the collection, there were 29 remaining.
-- Just before dog came along, there were (2 x 29) = 58 cards.
-- That was after Dan added 5 new ones.
-- Before he added the 5 new ones, there were (58 - 5) = 53 cards.
-- When this story began, Dan had <em>53 cards</em>.
