(3x − 5) − (4x + 6)
Pretend that there is a 1 in front of the first bracket.
Pretend that there is a -1 in front of the second bracket.
Multiply the first bracket by 1
(1)(3x)=3x, (1)(-5)=-5
Multiply the second bracket by -1
(-1)(4)=-4, (-1)(6)=-6
3x-5-4x-6
3x-4x-5-6 ( combine like terms)
-x-11
Answer: -x-11 or -11-x
Answer:
number of laps = 5/2 = 2.5 laps
Explanation:
First, we will need to convert the minutes to seconds.
5 minutes = 5 * 60 = 300 seconds
Now, we know that she can run 1/3 of a lap in 40 seconds. To know the number of laps that she can run in 300 seconds, all we have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
40 seconds .................> 1/3 laps
300 seconds ................> ?? laps
number of laps = (300 * 1/3) / 40
number of laps = (100) / 40
number of laps = 5/2 = 2.5 laps
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Chef Rita can feed 20 people with 55 pancakes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this problem using equivalent ratios. Since we know that Chef Rita can feed 8 people with 22 pancakes, we can set up the ratio:
To solve how many people she would be able to feed with 55 pancakes, we can set ratios equal to each other and solve for 'x' which is the number of people.
We can see what factor we multiply 22 by to get 55 and then we multiply the denominator by the same factor to get our equivalent ratio. 55 ÷ 22 = 2.5. So, 8 x 2.5 = 20 people.
Answer:
2x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two steps to take here. First add together the -3 + 2 in the brackets:
2(x - 3 + 2)
= 2(x - 1)
Now use the distributive property and multiply each term in the brackets by two:
2(x - 1)
= 2x - 2
And you now have it in simplest form.
Answer:
8+pi/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the rectangle on the bottom is 8, or 2*4. The area of the top is half (because it's a semi circle) of pi*r^2, or just 1/2 pi
