Answer:
4(5x + 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, let's expand things out, as we cannot learn anything from this form. We get 30x + 20 - 10x + 4, or 20x + 24. To find the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor), we take the terms and try to find the number (or term) that divides them. It must be a constant, because of the 24, and 4 goes into 20 and 24. So, our final answer is 4(5x + 6).
1.68 mm per year for 1.5 years could be rewritten as
(2.00-0.32) mm per year for 1.5 yrs.
Multiply: (1.5 yrs)(2.00-0.32)(mm/yr) = 3 mm + 0.48 mm = 3.48 mm
This approach makes use of the distributive property of multiplication.
The total area is:
A = (20) * (37)
A = 740 in ^ 2
We can make the following rule of three:
740in ^ 2 -----> 100%
x --------------> 50%
Clearing x we have:
x = (50/100) * (740)
x = 370 in ^ 2
Answer:
the area of the canvas which was covered by the red rose was:
x = 370 in ^ 2
