Hi!

I can help you with joy!

The Distributive Property states that
a(b+c)=ab+ac
Now, let's use this property to solve our problem:
$\sf{-(6x-17)$
Think of the minus sign as being -1, and distribute:
$\sf{-6x+17}$

<u>Answer:</u>

-6x+17

Hope it helps.

Do ask if you have any queries regarding my answer.

Hello!

$\large\boxed{-16}$

Use PEMDAS (order of operations) to solve:

-4 · [3 + (-5)²] ÷ 7

Square -5:

-4 · [3 + 25] ÷ 7

Add the numbers inside of the parenthesis:

-4 · [28] ÷ 7

Multiply -4 and 28:

-112 ÷ 7

Divide:

= -16.

the price of an item originally priced at $24 was increased by 15%. what percentage decrease will restore it to its original pri

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

$20.40

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we find the value of 10%, so we do 24 ÷ 10 which equals to 2.4, then we find the halved value of 2.4, so we do 2.4 ÷ 2 which equals to 1.2. Then we add 2.4 and 1.2 together, which then gives us 3.6 as the number. We then subtract 3.6 from 24 which gives us 20.4, but we need in money terms so we change it to $20.40. Hope this helps.

Answer:

Height of the building = 50.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A person and a building are casting the shadows at the same time of the day.

Triangles formed by the person and his shadow and the building and its shadow will be similar.

Therefore, corresponding sides of the similar triangles will be proportional.

$\frac{x}{28}=\frac{5.8}{3.2}$
