1 answer:

8 0

The parentheses of the expression (-2+2w+4w)(-7) is removed using the distributive property and the resultant expression is -14-42w.

<h3>What is distributive property?</h3>

The distributive property says that the product of a number and sum of two numbers is equal to the addition of the product of that number with the individual number of the sum.

c×(a+b)=ac+ab

The given expression in the problem is,

(-2+2w+4w)(-7)

Now, use the distributive property to remove the parentheses as,

(-2+2w+4w)(-7)

-2×-7+2w×-7+4w×-7

-14-14w-28w

-14-42w

Hence, the parentheses of the expression (-2+2w+4w)(-7) is removed using the distributive property and the resultant expression is -14-42w.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are <em>n</em> students, then the number of pairs is $\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$ .

With 12 students, $\frac{12(12-1)}{2} = \frac{132}{2}=66$ pairs can be formed.

The reason the formula works is this: Each of the 12 students can be paired with 11 other students (no student is paired with him/her self). But counting 12 x 11 = 132 counts each pair <u>twice</u>. Example: student A can be paired with student B,..., student B can be paired with student A. The pair was counted two times.

See the attached image that shows pairings of 5 students. There are

5(5 - 1)/2 = 5(4)/2 = 10 pairs.
