Combine the following expressions. a√x + b√y -c√x

Remember the distributive property of the multiplication, this means that:

A*(B + C) = A*B + A*C

And the commutative property of the addition is:

A + B = C

then:

B + A = C

We can use this property in our expression:

a√x + b√y -c√x

We can use the commutative property of the addition to rewrite this as:

a√x - c√x + b√y

(a√x - c√x) + b√y

Now we can use the distributive property in the left term:

(a - c)√x + b√y

Then we got:

a√x + b√y -c√x = (a - c)√x + b√y

step-by-step explanation:

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36
