Answer:
Reason given in step 2. is incorrect. It should read; "Distributive Property."
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason given to go from :
2 (3x +4) = 56 to 6x + 8 = 56
is NOT "Multiplication Property of Equality" because one is not multiplying both sides of the equality by a number. The property that is being used is the Distributive Property on the left side of the equation in order to remove the grouping symbols (parenthesis) performing the implied multiplication of the external factor times each term of the binomial in parenthesis.
Answer:
You have to follow PEMDAS or parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. It's an order to solve equations. I listed the steps and the answers for you below :) I have throughly checked them so they should be correct! yw :D
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 5x + 4x - 6x = 24
9x - 6x = 24
3x = 24
24/3 = 8
<u><em>x = 8</em></u>
2. 8y + 5 - 4y + 1 = 46
8y - 4y = 4y
5 + 1 = 6
4y + 6 = 46
4y = 46 - 6
4y = 40
40/4 = 10
<u><em>y = 10</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
3. 33 = 5 ( x + 8 ) + 3
33 = 5x + 40 + 3 <em>(because we distributed)</em>
33 = 5x + 43
5x + 43 = 33<em> (just rewriting it to make it easier)</em>
5x = 33 - 43
5x = -10
-10/5 = -2
<em><u>so x = - 2</u></em>
4. 2m + 3 ( m - 8 ) = 1
2m + 3m - 24 = 1
<em>we got 3m - 24 because we distributed the 3</em>
5m - 24 = 1
5m = 25
25/5 = 5
<em><u>m = 5</u></em>
<em><u /></em>
5. p + p - 2p + 4p = - 48
2p - 2p + 4p = - 48
4p = - 48
- 48 / 4 = - 12
<u><em>p = - 12</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
6. 2 ( y + 5 ) + 3y = 25
2y + 10 + 3y = 25
5y + 10 = 25
5y = 25 - 10
5y = 15
15/5 = 3
<u><em>y = 3</em></u>
7. 1/4 h + 3/4 h + 1/2 h + 2 = 5
1/4 h + 3/4 h + 1/2 = 3/2 h
3/2 h + 2 = 5
3/2 h = 5 - 2
3/2 h = 3
<u><em>h = 2</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
8. 60 = 4 ( k + 3 ) + 2 ( k - 3 )
60 = 4k + 12 + 2k - 6
4k + 12 + 2k - 6 = 60
6k + 6 = 60
6k = 60 - 6
6k = 54
<u><em>k = 9 </em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
9. - 2 ( d + 1.4 ) - 1.8 = 20.6
-2d + - 2.8 - 1.8 = 20.6
-2d - 2.8 = 22.4
-2d = 25.2
<u><em>d = - 12.6 </em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
10. 8 - 2 ( w + 4 ) = 10
8 + - 2 w + - 8 = 10
-2w + 9 + - 8 = 10
-2w = 10
10 / -2 = -5
<u><em>w = -5</em></u>
Answer:
3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 1 - (3x-1) < distribute the negative sign into the expression
6x + 1 -3x + 1 < combine like terms
6x - 3x = 3x
1 + 1 = 2
our simplified expression is:
3x + 2
Well, It is False. The sides must form the angle, i.e. /_ <- the angle formed, and the two sides must be in this position. its the ASA postulate.
I hope this helps!
