No, the expressions –0.5(3x 5) and –1.5x 2.5 are not equivalent.

Using the distributive property to expand the first expression, you would get -1.5x - 2.5. Since the constant term does not have the same sign as the second expression, the two expressions are not equivalent.

Also, if you substitute in a value for x and evaluate each expression, the values will not be equal.

A recipe calls for 1/2 cup of celery,2 1/3 of water and 3/4 cups of carrots. What the combined amont of these three ingredients?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

43/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must find a common denominator for all 3 fractions, 1/2 cup, 2 1/3 cup, and 3/4 cup all share 12 as a common denominator.

However, let's convert 2 1/3 cup into an improper fraction: there are 2 (3/3 cups) here multiply (3/3) and (2/1) you get 6/3. Finally, add the remaining 1/3 to 6/3 and you get 7/3.

Now, to get all these fractions to have the same common denominator.

(1/2) ×(6/6)=(6/12)

(7/3)×(4/4)=(28/12)

(3/4)×(3/3)=(9/12)

Add them all together and your answer is: (43/12)
