Answer:
The distributive property allows you multiply a sum in parenthesis by multiplying each addend separately, then add the products.
Step-by-step explanation:
How to use the distributive law example.
2(x+4) = 16
To use the distributive law in this example multiply 3 by all terms in the parenthesis. Multiply 2 and x, then 2 and 4 to open the parenthesis.
2x+8=16
That is how you use the distributive law.
To continue solving, subtract 8 from both sides.
2x+8-8=16-8
2x=8
Divide 2 from both sides.
2x/2=8/2
x=4

Answer:
(-7,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
goal: (y-k)^2=4p(x-h)
y^2-8y=4x+12 Rearranged and added 4x and 12 on both sides
y^2-8y+(-8/2)^2=4x+12+(-8/2)^2 complete square time (add same thing on both sides)
y^2-8y+(-4)^2=4x+12+(-4)^2 (simplify inside the squares)
(y-4)^2=4x+12+16 (now write the left hand side as a square)
(y-4)^2=4x+28
(y-4)^2=4(x+7) factored...
vertex is (-7,4)
Answer:
The probability that the next mattress sold is either king or queen-size is P=0.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 3 types of matress: queen size (Q), king size (K) and twin size (T).
We will treat the probability as the proportion (or relative frequency) of sales of each type of matress.
We know that the number of queen-size mattresses sold is one-fourth the number of king and twin-size mattresses combined. This can be expressed as:

We also know that three times as many king-size mattresses are sold as twin-size mattresses. We can express that as:

Finally, we know that the sum of probablities has to be 1, or 100%.

We can solve this by sustitution:

Now we know the probabilities of each of the matress types.
The probability that the next matress sold is either king or queen-size is:

Answer:
16.24 Units
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of the length of the sides of the triangle. Given the points on the vertices, the length of each side may be found using the formula
Length = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
Considering the pair (-1, 2), (3, 1), the length of that side
= √(3 -- 1)^2 + (1-2)^2)
= √(16 + 1)
= √17 units
Considering the pair (-1, 2), (7, 2), the length of that side
= √(7 -- 1)^2 + (2-2)^2)
= √(64)
= 8
Considering the pair (3, 1), and (7, 2), the length of that side
= √(7 - 3)^2 + (2 - 1)^2
= √(16 + 1)
= √17
Hence the perimeter of the triangle
= √17 + 8 + √17
= 4.12 + 8 + 4.12
= 16.24 Units
