Which sentence is an example of the distributive property

Answers

Answer 1

The distributive property of multiplication is a very useful property that lets you simplify expressions in which you are multiplying a number by a sum or difference. The property states that the product of a sum or difference, such as 6(5 – 2), is equal to the sum or difference of the products – in this case, 6(5) – 6(2).

 

Remember that there are several ways to write multiplication. 3 x 6 = 3(6) = 3 • 6.

3 • (2 + 4) = 3 • 6 = 18.

 

Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition

 

The distributive property of multiplication over addition can be used when you multiply a number by a sum. For example, suppose you want to multiply 3 by the sum of 10 + 2.

 

3(10 + 2) = ?

 

According to this property, you can add the numbers and then multiply by 3.

3(10 + 2) = 3(12) = 36. Or, you can first multiply each addend by the 3. (This is called distributing the 3.) Then, you can add the products.

The multiplication of 3(10) and 3(2) will each be done before you add.

3(10) + 3(2) = 30 + 6 = 36. Note that the answer is the same as before.

 

You probably use this property without knowing that you are using it. When a group (let’s say 5 of you) order food, and order the same thing (let’s say you each order a hamburger for $3 each and a coke for $1 each), you can compute the bill (without tax) in two ways. You can figure out how much each of you needs to pay and multiply the sum times the number of you. So, you each pay (3 + 1) and then multiply times 5. That’s 5(3 + 1) = 5(4) = 20. Or, you can figure out how much the 5 hamburgers will cost and the 5 cokes and then find the total. That’s 5(3) + 5(1) = 15 + 5 = 20. Either way, the answer is the same, $20.

 

The two methods are represented by the equations below. On the left side, we add 10 and 2, and then multiply by 3. The expression is rewritten using the distributive property on the right side, where we distribute the 3, then multiply each by 3 and add the results. Notice that the result is the same in each case.

List the angles of triangle DEF in order from smallest to largest measure if DE = 7, EF = 9, and DF = 3.


∠D, ∠E, ∠F


∠E, ∠F, ∠D


∠F, ∠E, ∠D


∠D, ∠F, ∠E

Answers

The angles in order from smallest to largest would be ∠E, ∠F, ∠D.

∠D is opposite side EF.  ∠E is opposite side DF.  ∠F is opposite side DE.  The sides that are the smallest correspond with the smallest angles, and the sides that are the largest correspond with the largest angles.
Answer: The order from smallest to largest is <E, <F, <D

First, you should draw a picture of triangle DEF and label all of the sides. Then, you will have an idea of what the triangle looks like and the relative size of the angles.

You can also look at the side opposite of the angle. The larger the opposite side, the larger the angle.

What number is 32% of 75?



Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?


n = 0.32(75)
0.32n = 75
n = 75 ÷ 0.32

This is just a reassurance question It's
n = 75 ÷ 0.32 Right?,

Answers

32% of 75 is 24


Explanation:

A percentage is a value out of 100

32% of 75

32/100*75/1


32/100*75/1   Cancel and Simplify.



8/1*3/1

Answer = 24


2: The following equation used to solved the problem is:

(A):  N = 0.32(75)


Hope this helps.

24 is 32% of 75. The answer can be found by setting up a proportion: n/75 is set equal to 32/100, where x represents 32% of 75. By using cross multiplying and solving for the variable "n" we can determine that n = 24. Therefore, the equation n = 0.32(75) could be used to determine the correct answer. The formula n = 75 ÷ 0.32 is incorrect.

Kareem wants to wallpaper the back wall of his bedroom. The wall is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is
13 feet and its width is 12
feet. The wallpaper costs $8
for each square foot. How much will wallpaper cost for the wall?

Answers

The first step in solving this problem is to compute for the area of the rectangular wall. The formula in computing the area of a rectangle is:

A = LW

Substituting the given measurements in the problem to the formula:

A = 13 (12)

A = 156

Therefore, the area of the wall is 156 square feet. To compute the wallpaper cost of the wall, you have to multiply the cost per square foot to the total area.

$8 per square foot x 156 square feet = $1,248

Therefore, the wallpaper cost for the wall is $1,248

Answers

c= number of crickets
g= number of grasshoppers= twice number of crickets= 2c
T= total number of both= 561

If you add the number of crickets and the number if grasshoppers, you'll get a total of 561.

c + g= T
c + g= 561

Now we also know that grasshoppers are 2c (twice the crickets). Substitute 2c for g in the equation to solve for c.

c + g= 561
c + 2c= 561
combine like terms
3c= 561
divide both sides by 3
c= 187 crickets

Substitute number of crickets back in equation to find g.

c + g= 561
187 + g= 561
subtract 187 from both sides
g= 374 grasshoppers

CHECK:
Since grasshoppers are twice the number of crickets, then multiplying the number of crickets by two should equal the number of grasshoppers.
187 * 2= 374
374= 374

ANSWER: 187 crickets and 374 grasshoppers

Answers

The correct answer is A: x=2 and y=-3. Either method would work, but for example, let's use elimination. If you multiply the second equation by 5, you get: 10x +5y = 5. When you add both equations, you can then cross out both y terms. You are left with one equation that reads: 13x=26. Solving for x gives you 2. You can substitute 2 in for x in either equation and you will receive -3 for your y value.

b. estimate the difference between finishing times in 1990.

c. predict the difference between finishing times in 2005.

Answers

We are given a function:
[tex]y=41* 0.95^{x} [/tex]

a. Does the exponential function represent growth or decay?
To find out if this is growth or decay we need to observe number that is connected with x. If number is less than 1 we have decay and if it is greaer than 1 we have growth.
In our case we have number 0.95 which is less than 1 so we have decay.

b. Estimate the difference between finishing times in 1990.
x represents the number of years since 1972.
[tex]x=1990-1972=18[/tex]
Now we insert this number into equation to get solution.
[tex]y=41* 0.95^{18} = 16.29[/tex]

c. Predict the difference between finishing times in 2005.
[tex]x=2005-1972=33[/tex]

Factored Form is (x+4)(x+2)
Expanded Form is x^2+6x+8

----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

The factored form is simply a matter of reading off the values from the given image. There isn't much work to show here.
Along the left side we have x and 4 so x+4 is one of the factors. Along the bottom we have x and 2, so x+2 is another factor
The two factors are (x+4) and (x+2) so that's why the factored form is (x+4)(x+2)

-------------------------------

Let's expand out the factored form

The overall rectangle is broken up into four parts. I'll label the four smaller rectangles as...

Rectangle A in the upper left corner (this rectangle is x by x)
Rectangle B in the upper right corner (this rectangle is 2 by x)
Rectangle C in the lower left corner (this rectangle is x by 4)
Rectangle D in the lower right corner (this rectangle is 2 by 4)

The idea is that adding the areas of rectangles A through D leads us to the overall area for this largest rectangle.

Area of Rectangle A = (length)*(width) = x*x = x^2
Area of Rectangle B = (length)*(width) = 2*x = 2x
Area of Rectangle C = (length)*(width) = x*4 = 4x
Area of Rectangle D = (length)*(width) = 2*4 = 8

Notice we have the like terms 2x and 4x (areas of rectangle C and D respectively). They combine to 2x+4x = 6x

So after adding all the individual areas and combining like terms, we arrive at the fully expanded form of x^2+6x+8

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in circle O.

What is ​ m∠B ​ ?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

The measure of angle B is 125 degrees in the given quadrilateral inscribed in circle O.

In a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle, opposite angles are supplementary.

Therefore, we can set up the equation:

∠A + ∠C = 180 degrees

Substituting the given values:

(2x-7) + (x+4) = 180

Combining like terms:

3x - 3 = 180

Adding 3 to both sides:

3x = 183

Dividing both sides by 3:

x = 61

Now we can find ∠B:

∠B = 2x + 3

∠B = 2(61) + 3

∠B = 122 + 3

∠B = 125

Therefore, m∠B is equal to 125 degrees.
