Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two given numbers both have the denominator 5, Thus the quotient quickly reduces:

11 4/5 becomes 59/5 and 3 1/5 becomes 16/5. Dividing the first expression by the second yields 59/16, which can't be reduced.

However, 59 = 48 + 11, so 59/16 = 48/16 + 11/16, which is approximately 3 1/2 (from either Answer B or Answer C).

The exact answer is 3 11/16; B and C are identical and are closer to 3 11/16 thn 3 or 4.

-2(x - 5) = -14 PLEASEEEEE HELPPPPPP

Okay so you need to start off by using the distributive property, meaning you are going to multiply -2 by both items within the parentheses. this gives you -2x + 10 = -14. from here you want to isolate x, so you’ll subtract both sides by 10 to move it to the other side. this gives you -2x=-24. then you’ll divide both sides by -2 to completely isolate x. this gives you x=12. does that make sense?

The coefficient of xy in the product of (4x2 + 2y) and (3x + y2) is

icang [17]

In polynomials, when a term contains both a number and a variable part, the number is called the co-efficient.
In this problem the co-efficient of x =
(8+y)+(3x+y2)
3y+3x+8
Therefore the co efficient of x and y is 3

Duval County Landscaping uses two different sized trucks to deliver mulch. The first truck can transport x cubic yards of mulch,

Gre4nikov [31]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: number of cubic yards of mulch that first truck can transport
y: number of cubic yards of mulch that second truck can transport
Now we write the expression.
The first truck makes 12 trips to a job site:
$12x
$
The second makes 14 trips:
$14y
$
The difference between the first truck and the second truck is:
$12x - 14y$
Answer:
An expression that represents the difference in the total number of cubic yards that the first truck delivers compared to the second is:
$12x - 14y$
