Associative property of multiplication means that it doesn't matter where the parentheses are placed because it will still be the same answer.
So your answer would be 1, 4 x (3 x 6) = (4 x 3) x 6

140 is the answer! hope it helped
Answer:
k= -0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
3+2(5k-3)=7 (original)
3+10k-6=7 (distribute 2 in (5k-3))
9+10k=7 (combine like terms 3+-6)
10k=-2 (subtract 9 on both sides to isolate k)
k=-0.2 (divide 10 on both sides to get you're answer/isolate k)
This question is referred to two similar triangles.
One triangle has sides x and x - 2.
The other triangle has the respective sides x + x + 5 and x - 2 + x + 1
Then you can state a proportionality relation between the sides>
[x + x + 5] / x = [x - 2 + x + 1] / [x - 2]
=> [2x + 5] / x = [2x - 1] / [x - 2]
=> (2x + 5)(x - 2) = (2x - 1)x
=> 2x^2 - 4x + 5x - 10 = 2x^2 - x
=> x - 10 = - x
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 10 / 2
=> x = 5
Answer: x = 5
