How do I solve 17(x+5)=0

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Use the distributive problem to distribute the 17 to the values in the parentheses. 17(x + 5) = 0, 17x + 17(5) = 0, 17x + 85 = 0. Subtract 85 from both sides of the equal sign. 17x = -85. Divide both sides of the equal sign by 17, x = -5.
Answer 2
Answer: ok so if you ahve ab=0
assume a and b=0 because 0 times x=0

17(x+5)=0
17 is not equal to zero
therefor
x+5=0
minus 5
x=-5

Do you guys think that we should have less homework plz answer it'll help me with my writing piece

Answers

Yes, we should have less homework. Especially when you get to high school, I find myself in situations where I stay up until 2AM doing homework, not even because of procrastination or distractions but because of the sheer amount of homework and classes that we take. You have it easy kid, but definitely less homework would be great. Also, if you take a lot of extracurricular things like me, like tennis, violin, guitar, math, science, composition, etc., you can definitely find yourself hysterical, especially after a stressful day.

Manny used 8 tenth-size parts to model 8/10. Ana used fewer parts to model an equivalent fraction. How does the size of a part in Ana's model compare to the size of a tenth-size part? Explain.

Answers

Alrighty, let's think of it like this: You are trying to fill a box with a bunch of sports balls. You have tiny little golf balls, and you have giant bowling balls. You need to fill this same box all the way up.

If you fill it with the tiny golf balls, you are going to need a whole lot of them!

If you are putting in bowling balls, only a few of them will fit, because they are so much bigger.

When it comes to your fraction, the box is the the number 8/10. That number will not change because we are not changing the size of the box.

We are just changing what we are filling it with. Manny, can fit 8 parts, or in this case balls, into the box.

It says Ana uses fewer parts, so she cannot fit as many in as Manny.

This means that Manny would have the golf balls, since he can fit more in than Ana, who must have the bowling balls.

So which is bigger? A bowling ball or a golf ball?

A bowling ball, which is what Ana has. So Ana's part will be bigger in size.
Ana's part is bigger
