OpenStudy (destinymasha):

google each property , and see which one matches....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about the other two questions? do u know how to solve those?

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

yes.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u help?

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

for number 21- add 8.4 + 3.9

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

= 12.3

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

then subtract 9.5 from 12.3 = 2.8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.8 is x?

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

yes...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and can u do the other one too?

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

hold on a sec...

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

it says x +6 divided by 3 is equal to -5+2x

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

since there are no options, we have to estimate....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay so on the first q for steps on 20 1. Distributive property, since it went from 3(a+5) to 3a+15 2. Commutative property, moving around #'s without regrouping

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3. The Associative property, regrouping of the #'s 4. It would be simplification 5. Distributive property

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Have any q's?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks so much for your help! if you dont mind can u help with q 22?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, one moment

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

both the variables should be the same right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Before u move on to the next question, there r six slots to fill in and u only gave me 5...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay for # 22 1. Multiply both sides by 3 3(x+6)/3 = 3(2x-5) makes the equation simpler by multiplying both sides by a constant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6+x = 3(2x-5) Cancel out common term 3 in the numerator and denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

distribute x+6=6x-15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Subtract 6x from both sides 6-5x=-15 subtract 6 from both sides -5x=-21 divide both sides of -5x=-21 by 5 -5x/5=-21/-5 x=-21/-5 x=21/5 or 4.2

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

he's right, 4.2 +6 divided by 3 = 3.4, -5 +2[4.2] = 3.4 ~sorry i didn't get it didnt remember how to solve it the way @Nanalew did.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then on number 20, # 6, really isn't a step the equation is in its simplified form, so you could put simplified

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Any more q's?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

NOPE THANKS SO MUCH

OpenStudy (anonymous):
