Use the distributive property to simplify the expression 3(9x-1)

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! I hope you are having an excellent day! My name is Galaxy and I will be helping you with this problem.

We can solve this in two steps; one being Solving and another being Theory. I'll start off with the Theory behind it first.

Theory

So when we start solving the problem, we see that it tells us to use the distributive property.

The distributive property states that anything inside the parenthesis multiplied by what's on the outside will equal the same even if the interior is simplified.

Solving

We can solve this problem in a few easy steps, we just need to multiply by .

We can do that by using algebra.

If we do that, our final answer is .

Notes

Remember, if we have an example equation: ;

Remember to multiply 3 by -3, and not 3 by 3 and drop the negative.

Have a nice day!

5x+2x=49

7x=49

x=7. 35 apples

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
