Prove: The sum of two multiples of 3 is a multiple of 3

  3 . . . goes in both boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property. Remove the common factor to outside parentheses:

  3(m +n) = a multiple of 3

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1

a box 3 3/4 feet long or 4+ feet.
