Answer:

-9 - 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy multiplied incorrectly it should have been -4*2x, -4*-3

Sylvie forgot to multiply both sides she did -4*2x but forgot to do -4*-3

The correct answer should be...

-3-4(2x-3)

-3 - 8x + 12

-9 - 8x

Jackie bought a 3-pack of tubes of glue. She used 0.27 ounce of the glue from the 3-pack

brilliants [131]

Answer:

0.54 ounces in each tube

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the amount she used so we can add it in. 1.35+0.27= 1.62. Then divide it by the number of tube and since it was a 3 pack you divide it by 3. 1.62/3=0.54 so there is 0.54 ounces in each tube.

The measure of the exterior angle of the triangle is what degree?

RSB [31]

Answer:

92°

Step-by-step explanation:

By exterior angle theorem:

$(2x - 2) \degree = x \degree + 45 \degree \\ \\ (2x - 2 - x) \degree = 45 \degree \\ \\ (x - 2) \degree = 45 \degree \\ \\ (x - 2) = 45 \\ \\ x = 45 + 2 \\ \\ x = 47 \\ \\ (2x - 2) \degree = (2 \times 47 - 2)\degree \\ \\ (2x - 2) \degree = (94 - 2)\degree \\ \\ (2x - 2) \degree = 92\degree \\ \\ measure \: of \: the \: exterior \: angle \\ = 92 \degree$
