Answer:8x-40

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when we simply 4(x-5)/2

We multiply both sides by 2 because the inverse operations of division is multiplication. 2*4(x-5)*2/2 we cancel two by two then it leave us 4*2(x-5).

Next four times two is eight. So 8(x-5) we distribe eight that means eight times x and 5, 8x-40thos is the answer. Hope this help

Find the amount of sap the maple syrup producer collected from each tree if the total amount (5 gallons) was redistributed equal

Afina-wow [57]

The picture in the attached figure

we know that
total amount of sap =[3*(1/4)+2*(3/8)+4*(5/8)+1*(1)]
total amount of sap =[(3/4)+(6/8)+(20/8)+(1)]
total amount of sap =[(3/4)+(3/4)+(10/4)+(4/4)]
total amount of sap =[20/4]
total amount of sap =5 gallons
total of trees=10

<span>[amount of sap collected from each tree]=total amount of sap/total of trees
</span>
[amount of sap collected from each tree]=5/10----> 0.5 gallons per tree

the answer is
0.5 gallons
