The expression would be:
3x
x=number of plays
Insert 4:
3(4)
=12
They would 12 yards after 4 plays if losing 3 yards every play.
The greatest common factor between 64 and 24 is 8
Let's divide both terms in the expression by 8 and leave the expression in parenthesis...
Like this!
64x -24
8x - 3
Leave 8 we divided outside the parenthesis
Now we have this!
8( 8x - 3)
This is the distributive property form!
Hey!
Hope this helps...

So to solve this, we want to know how many miles can we do in every 1 gallon of gas.
To solve this, we do: 380 / 14 = 27.14 miles for every 1 gallon
Okay, so if we have 1/2 a gallon stashed away, how far can we get on every 1/2 gallon...
To solve this, we do: 27.14 / 2 = 13.57 miles for every 1/2 gallon
So...
The answer is: We will NOT be able to get to the Gas Station that is 15miles away, because we can only go about 13.5 miles with every 1/2 gallon.
Fraction: 16/75
Decimal: 0.21
