You are basically just adding, so combine like terms.
3x^2 + 5x^2 = 8x^2
6x - 2x = 4x
4 - 8 = -4
So the answer is D.
The pants are $38.06 and the television is $1,147.50.
The sales tax on the pair of pants is calculated by multiplying $35 x .0875 = $3.06
The total cost is $35 + 3.06 = $38.06.
The sales price of the television is calculated by multiplying $1,250 x .85, (100 - .15 discount = .85) = $1,062.50 is the sales price
The sales tax is calculated by multiplying $1,062.50 x .08 = $85
The total price is $85 + $1,062.50 = $1,147.50
It'd be clearer if you'd write: "How many tenths are there in 2 3/5?"
2 3/5 13/5
---------- = ---------- = 26
(1`/10) 1/10
There are 26 tenths in 2 3/5.
1 liter = 1000 ml
53.1 liter = 53.1*1000 = 53100
Hope this helps :)
2u + 1 > -5/4u - 9
2u + 5/4u > -9 - 1
8/4u + 5/4u > -10
13/4u > -10
u > - 10 * 4/13
u > -40/13 or - 3 1/13 <=
