Let 'c' represent the number of pictures Chelsea took.
Let 's' represent the number of pictures Sonya took.
For last year's Thanksgiving, c + s = 236
For this year's Thanksgiving, let 'x' represent the number of photos taken in total. x = c + s, where c and s are two integers that are the same (c = s).
And we know that for both years, c + s + x = 500.
As we know that c + s is already 236 from last year, we can remove c + s from the equation in bold and replace it with 236 instead.
236 + x = 500.
Now we have to isolate the x term.
x = 500 - 236
x = 264.
We know that x = c + s, where c and s are the same, so we can just use one of the variables and double it (so you either get 2c or 2s - it doesn't matter which one you pick because they're both the same).
2c = 264
c = 132
c = s
s = 132.
Both took 132 pictures this year.
-4(9)(-5) = (-36)(-5) because -4(9) = -36. (-36)(-5) = 180
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have exponents above a like term and they are being multiplied together, you add them.
For example:
So let's group like terms in the numerator:
We can add terms like in the example.
Let's rearrange the denominator.
Now we have:
Cancel like terms
4/8 = 1/2
= 1 So it cancels
= s Since s is raised to the -1 it goes on top and becomes s.
Now we combine everything back together:
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5 [4d - 2*1.5] = 3.5*4d - 3.5*2*1.5
= 14d - 10.5
2*[7d - 5*1.05] = 2*7d - 2*5*1.05
= 14d - 10.5
When we are simplifying both the expression using distributive property, we get the same expression at the end.
