Use the Distributive Property to solve the equation.
- 8(x + 7) = 16
Apply the Distributive Property and simplify.
- 8(x + 7) = 16
- 8x + = 16

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x= - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

- 8(x +7) = 16-8x - 56 = 16 -8x = 16 + 56-8x = 72x = 72 ÷ (-8) x = -9
Answer 2

Hey there!

Use the Distributive Property and simplify:

-8(x+7)=16

-8x-56=16

Notice we write -8 right next to x.

Add 56 to both sides:

-8x=16+56

-8x=72

Divide both sides by -8:

x=-9

Hope everything is clear.

A cyclist travels at an average speed of 13 mph for 3 hours.
How far did she travel in miles?

Answers

Answer:

39 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a cyclist travelled at an average rate of 13 miles per hour for 3 hours and are asked to how far she travelled in miles.

To solve, we need to take into mind that for three hours, the cyclist drove 13 miles per hour.

Meaning that for every hour, 13 miles were driven.

Therefore we need to multiply 13 by 3 to get our answer :

13 miles * 3hrs

39 miles

You are selling concessions at a local swim meet. Hot dogs are being sold for

-5x = 25
what is the answer for x?

Answers

Answer:

i think its -5

Step-by-step explanation:

if you devide 25 by -5 you get -5

Answer: x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use inverse operations to solve the equation. Because the term "-5x" is multiplication (because you are multiplying x by -5), we can use division to solve the equation.

First, we will divide -5 from 25.

25 ÷ -5 = -5.

Because of this, x = -5!

If we're not sure, we can also check the equation.

-5 x -5 = 25, so the answer is true.

In conclusion, x = -5!

What does 43/12 is equivalent too?

Answers

Hi there!

Fractions can be equivalent to a lot other fractions...

Explanation:

43/12x2 would be 86/24 so that would be equivalent.

Let do another one..

43/12 when doing this, you can decide to divide or not but this is in the simplest form already so we can just multiply 43 and 12 with anything we want so let do... 5.

So 43 multiply by 5 would be..215 and 12x5 would be 60. So another equivalent fractions that’s the same as 43/12 or we can say 86/24 is 215/60.

I also added how I got the equivalent fractions just in case you don’t understand still...

C. ∠L≅∠L by the Reflex Prop. of ≅. Since OP¯¯¯¯¯∥MN¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, ∠LOP≅∠LMN by the Corr. ∠s Post. Therefore, △LOP∼△LMNby AA∼. OP=4 and MN=8.

D. ∠M≅∠N. Since OP¯¯¯¯¯∥MN¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, ∠LOP≅∠LMN by the Alt. Int. ∠s Thm. Therefore, △LOP∼△LMNby AA∼. OP=2 and MN=6.

Answers

Answer:

The correct explanation is option B;

B. ∠L ≅ ∠L  By Reflexive Prop. ≅.

Since [tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] ║ [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex], ∠LOP ≅ ∠LMN by the Corr. ∠s Post. Therefore, ΔLOP ~ ΔLMN by AA ~. OP = 2 and MN = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

[tex]\overline {LP}[/tex] = 5

[tex]\overline {NP}[/tex] = 10

[tex]\overline {LN}[/tex] = [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex] + [tex]\overline {NP}[/tex] = 15

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] = x - 3

[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] = x + 1

A two column proof is presented as follows;

Statement    [tex]{}[/tex]      Reason

∠L ≅ ∠L     [tex]{}[/tex]        By Reflexive property of congruency

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] ║ [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex]     [tex]{}[/tex]     Given

∠LOP ≅ ∠LMN [tex]{}[/tex]  By the Corresponding angles Postulate

Therefore

ΔLOP ~ ΔLMN [tex]{}[/tex]  By AA similarity Postulate

Where we have that ΔLOP and ΔLMN, we get;

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex]/[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex]  = [tex]\overline {LP}[/tex]/[tex]\overline {LN}[/tex] = 5/15 = 1/3

∴ (x - 3)/(x + 1) = 1/3

3·(x - 3) = 1·(x + 1)

3·x - 9 = x + 1

3·x - x = 1 + 9 = 10

2·x = 10

x = 10/2 = 5

x = 5

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] = (x - 3) = 5 - 3 = 2

[tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] = 2

[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] = x + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6

[tex]\overline {MN}[/tex] =  6

Therefore, the correct option is ∠L ≅ ∠L  By Reflexive Prop. ≅.

Since [tex]\overline {OP}[/tex] ║ [tex]\overline {MN}[/tex], ∠LOP ≅ ∠LMN by the Corr. ∠s Post. Therefore, ΔLOP ~ ΔLMN by AA ~. OP = 2 and MN = 6.

Find the area of each regular polygon. Round to the nearest tenth.

A= _ In2 ?

Answers

Answer:

Area of the square = 225.0 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polygon is a regular polygon that means given quadrilateral has all sides equal in measure.

And a quadrilateral with all sides equal is known to be a square.

Therefore, area of a square = (Side)²

                                              = (15)²

                                              = 225

                                              ≈ 225.0 in²

Three times a larger number is 30 more than 5 times a smaller number. The sum of the larger number and 5 times the smaller number is 50

Answers

Answer: Smaller number = 6

Larger number = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x.

Let the larger number be y.

Three times a larger number is 30 more than 5 times a smaller number. This will be:

3 × y = (5 × x) + 30

3y = 5x + 30 ...... i

The sum of the larger number and 5 times the smaller number is 50. This will be:

y + 5x = 50 ...... ii

From equation ii

y + 5x = 50.

y = 50 - 5x ...... iii

Put the value of y = 50 - 5x into equation i

3y = 5x + 30

3(50 - 5x) = 5x + 30

150 - 15x = 5x + 30

150 - 30 = 5x + 15x

120 = 20x

x = 120/20

x = 6

The smaller number is 6

Note that y + 5x = 50

y + 5(6) = 50

y + 30 = 50

y = 50 - 30

y = 20

The bigger number is 20
