Answer:
7x2−2x−12
Step-by-step explanation:
You would use the distributive property with the negative. So the second x becomes negative, but since the 7 is already negative it becomes positive. Think of it as if you put the two dashes together you can make a plus sign.
Let p = weight of papaya and g = weight of grapes.
Then (3/4)g = (3/5)p. Since the weight of grapes is x + 28,
(3/4)(x + 28) = (3/5)p. We must solve for x. To do this, mult. both sides by (5/3):
(5/3)(3/4)(x+28) = (5/3)(3/5)p
Then p = (15/9)(x+28), or (after reduction), p = (5/3)(x+28).
The answer to this question is NONE OF THE ABOVE
you would take each answer and add 2 to the end of it, then factor
Divide both sides with 9
s = 16
