Yes, 5/60, 5 divided by 5=1. 60 divided by 5= 12. Leaving you with 1/12. Meaning that both fractions are equivalent

She is correct because when you do cross multiply you are able to see whether or not a fraction is equivalent.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

$r_3=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$r_1=2\\r_n=-r_{n-1}+n-2$

We want to find the value of $r_3$ .

$\\r_2=-r_{2-1}+2-2\\r_2=-r_1\\r_2=-2\\\\r_3=-r_{3-1}+3-2\\r_3=-r_{2}+1\\r_3=-(-2)+1\\r_3=2+1\\r_3=3$

Solve for x: 2 x + 10 + 2 x - 6 = 36

skad [1K]

Group together the like terms (plus 2x with 2x) (subtract 10 by 6)

4x+4=36

Move plus four to the other side as a negative

4x=32

Divide both sides by 4

32 divided by 4 is 8

Therefore, x is equal to 8

295 X 3 = What is the distributive property of multiplication

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

295 x 3 = 885

The distributive property is when you distriute numbers if they are getting multiplied by the same number.

Example:

Original Equation: A(B+C)

Distribute the equation so that B and C are by itself.

New Equation: AxB + AxC

This is distributive property.
