Answer:
It would be distributive property.
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You have the following phrase given in the problem: 16 times as many books. You can conclude this is a multiplication word problem, because:
- Let's call 
the number of books.
- "As many boooks" indicates multiplication.
- 16 times means that should be multiplied by 16.
2. Then, you can conclude that the expression that best represent the phrase is:
Number the tables as follows:
1 2
3 4
Eliminate 3 and 4 immediately, because for x = 2 the y values are wrong (3 and 1).
In tables 1 and 2, the input (1) produces the correct output (-1).
So we have to determine which table agrees 100% with the system of equations given.
Comparing tables 1 and 2, row by row, we see that their contents are the same EXCEPT for the first rows. So focus on determing which of those 2 rows displays values that satisfy both given equations.
First I looked at y=2x-5, and subst. -1 for x. I got -7, which is correct in table 1 but not in table 2 (where the value would be -13).
Thus, table 1 correct represents the solution of the system of equations.
Answer:
2^2 * 3^3
Step-by-step explanation:
When breaking of 108 into factors, you first get 9 and 12. Then, the 9 gets split into a 3 and a 3. Meanwhile the 12 is split into a 3 and a 4. Finally the 4 is split into a 2 and a 2. So you end up with 2*2*3*3*3, which is the same as 2^2 * 3^3
