You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a. plug them in.
2(10) + 1(10) + 1/2(10) =?
Use distributive property.
10(2+1+1/2)=
10(3 1/2)=
30+5=
35
35>30. No, Abbey can't play each song ten times in half an hour.
b. plug the values in again.
5 + 2(6) + 1(6) + 1/2(6)= Distributive Porperty
5 + 6(2+1+1/2)
5 + 6(3+1/2)
5 + 18 + 3=
26 Minutes.
