Write a number or expression in each blank space to create true equations.

7(3+5)= +

15−10= (3−2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both expressions are examples of the distributive property, which basically says "if I have this many groups of some size and that many groups of the same size, I've got this + that groups of that size altogether."

To give an example, if I've got 3 groups of 5 and 2 groups of 5, I've got 3 + 2 = 5 groups of 5 in total. I've attached a visual from Math with Bad Drawings to illustrate this idea.

Mathematically, we'd capture that last example with the equation

. We can also read that in reverse: 3 + 2 groups of 5 is the same as adding together 3 groups of 5 and 2 groups of 5; both directions get us 8 groups of 5. We can use this fact to rewrite the first expression like this: .

This idea extends to subtraction too: If we have 3 groups of 4 and we take away 1 group of 4, we'd expect to be left with 3 - 1 = 2 groups of 4, or in symbols: . When we start with two numbers like 15 and 10, our first question should be if we can split them up into groups of the same size. Obviously, you could make 15 groups of 1 and 10 groups of 1, but 15 is also the same as 3 groups of 5 and 10 is the same as 2 groups of 5. Using the distributive property, we could write this as , so we can say that .

step-by-step explanation:

answer: 204

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that the revenue is

x⋅(4080−10x)=−10x^2+4080x

this is a quadratic function, so to maximize it we should find the x-value of its vertex. recall that the x-value of the vertex of the parabola ax^2+bx+c is given by the formula −b/2a.

so in this case, we have a=−10 and b=4080, so the x-value of the vertex is

−b/2a= −(4080)/2(−10)=204
