Answer: Yes, your friend is correct

Additional Note: Associative Property is modifying the addendum grouping does not alter the number.

Answer: The friend is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, they are doing the commutative property. Commutative property is a property that the numbers on which we operate can be moved or swapped from their position without making any difference to the answer. The Associative Property of Addition is a property which means that rearranging the parentheses in an expression will not change the result. Clearly, they didn’t do that; they just switched the 7 and x around which is the commutative property.

This might be slightly confusing but I hope this helps :’)

In a litter of 7 kittens, each kitten weighs less than 3.5 ounces. Find all the possible values of the combined weights of the k

Dima020 [189]

Let's use w to symbolize the weight of kittens. Given by the statement "each kitten weighs less than 3.5 ounces" we know that

1*w < 3.5

We can multiply both sides of the inequality by 7 to determine the total weights

7*(1*w) < 7*(3.5)

7*w < 24.5

Since there are 7 kittens, the combined weight of the kittens is 7w, therefore the above expression could be read as "The combined weight of the kittens is less than 24.5 ounces"

7x-2y=16 11x+6y=32.3<br>how to solve this math problem

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These types of equations are called simultaneous equations and the method we can use to solve these type of equations is either Substitution, Elimination and Graphing.

We use substitution here because it is easier.

Equation 1

$7x-2y=16$

Equation 2

$11x+6y=32.3$

Lets take equation 1

$7x-2y=16\\7x=16+2y\\x=\frac{16+2y}{7}$

This is our equation 3 , now put it inside equation 2.

$11x+6y=32.3\\11(\frac{16+2y}{7} )+6y=32.3\\\frac{176+22y}{7} +6y=32.3\\\frac{176+22y+42y}{7}=32.3\\176+22y+42y=226.1 \\\\42y+22y=226.1-176\\64y=50.1\\y=\frac{50.1}{64} \\y=0.783\\$

We found the value of y , now to find the value of x insert the value of y in equation 3

$x=\frac{16+2y}{7}\\x=\frac{16+2(0.783)}{7} \\x=\frac{16+1.566}{7}\\x=\frac{17.566}{7}\\x=2.509$

Solved ! See the attached image on both the straight line graphs i have attached for better understanding. Where both the lines intersect each other is our value of (x , y) respectively.
