None of these are actually using the distributive property.
The distributive property can be shown below:
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Nothing in this problem is actually using the distributive property to simplify this.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
A perpendicular line that passes through the point (5, 0) is a vertical line in which all points have 5 as their x-coordinate.
The slope is undefined since the slope of all vertical lines is undefines.
Answer: x = 5
Answer:
<em>The student completed 13 courses worth 3 credits</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Let's assign the following variables:
x = number of courses worth 3 credits
y = number of courses worth 4 credits
Some student completed 18 courses thus:
x + y = 18 [1]
The student earned a total of 59 credits:
3x + 4y = 59 [2]
From [1]:
y = 18 - x
Substituting in [2]:
3x + 4(18 - x) = 59
Operating:
3x + 72 - 4x = 59
Simplifying:
-x = 59 - 72 = -13
x = 13
The student completed 13 courses worth 3 credits
<h2>
Answer:</h2>
n = 1
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
Here we have the following Geometric Sequence:

Where:

The first term occurs when
. Next the second term occurs when
, the third term when
and so on. Therefore, the appropriate value of n that lies on the domain for n is
3/5 = 6/x +3
⇒ 6/x = 3/5 -3
⇒ 6/x = -2.4
⇒ x= 6/(-2.4)
⇒ x= -2.5
5/x -3 = 10/x
⇒ 5/x -10/x = 3
⇒ -5/x = 3
⇒ x= -5/3
Hope this helps~
