Joseph removes 5/8 gallon of white paint from a can. Then he adds 5/8 gallon of blue paint to the can.
Write and evaluate an addition expression to find
the overall increase or decrease in the amount of
paint in the can.

Create the expression from the data:

The gallon of paint begins as a whole: 8/8

Then he removes 5/8 gallons of paint from the can: - 5/8

Then he adds 5/8 of a different colored paint to the can: + 5/8

Now combine:

8 / 8 - 5 / 8 + 5 / 8 = 8/8

The paint can is full, then he removes an amount from the can. He then pours more paint into the can that is equal to the amount he originally removed. Therefore, the paint can remained full.

answer is

step-by-step explanation:

consider the parallelogram shown in the attached image.

in the parallelogram hijk, the length of hk is given as,

from the properties of parallelogram we know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel to each other and are equal in measure.

therefore, the length of the side ij must be equal to the length of the side hk and that is .

hence, the expression for the length of ij confirms that hijk is a parallelogram.
