Answer:
1st choice - 1st line- Distributive property applied incorrectly
Step-by-step explanation:
3(a-2) should be 3a-6
The amount of time Jill spent to do her homework
= 9 1/2 hours. which equals to 570 minutes.
Which means, the amount of times Jack needed to do his is
= 570 minutes x 1.5
= 855 minutes which equals to 14 1/4 hours
hope this helps
<u>Equation/Question:</u>
Solve for b. 3(b + -2)-8=-5 what is the answer?
<u>Answer/Steps to answer:</u>
1.Simplify b+-2 to b−2.
3(b−2)−8=−5
2. Add 8 to both sides.
3(b-2)=-5+8
3. Simplify -5+8 to 3.
3(b-2)=3
4. Divide both sides by 3.
b-2=1
5. Add 2 to both sides.
b=1+2
6. Simplify 1+2 to 3.
b=3

Answer:
x = 11, y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔABC and ΔFDE are congruent by the postulate SSS
Equate the congruent sides in the 2 triangles
BC = ED, that is
x + 3 = 14 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = 11
-------------------------------------
DF = AB, that is
x - y = 3 ← substitute x = 11
11 - y = 3 ( subtract 11 from both sides )
- y = 3 - 11 = - 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
y = 8
