Answer:

2/3

Explanation:

Given the below;

\frac{-14}{9}\times\frac{(-3)}{7}

We can see from the above that 9 is divisible by 3 and that 14 is divisible by 7, let's go ahead and reduce to the lowest term as shown below;

\frac{-14}{9}\times\frac{(-3)}{7}=\frac{-2}{3}\times\frac{(-1)}{1}=\frac{2}{3}

Kito makes on online purchase of a guitar case for $39.99, a tuner for $24.99 and picks for $26.99. Taxes are 6% of the total pu
maria [59]

Answer:

a. Kito has been billed correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

We simply need to check Kito's work to see if his price is accurate.

First, we can add the prices together to find the price before the sales tax is applied:  39.99 + 24.99 + 26.99 = $91.97

We can use this formula to figure out the total cost, C, after the sales tax, t is added:

C = l + (l * (t / 100)), where l = the price before applying the sales tax

C = 91.97 + (91.97 * (6 / 100)) = 97.4882 = $97.49

We know that the total cost lies between the 50 and 100 and that Kito chose the express shipping.  Thus we add:  97.49 + 8.20 = $105.69.

If we did not round before, we would still get the same answer when rounding:  97.4882 + 8.20 = 105.6882 = $105.69

Which expressions are equivalent to 2(2x + 4y + x − 2y)?
joja [24]

Answer: 2(3x + 2y) and 6x + 4y

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to solve the expression.

2(2x + 4y + x − 2y)

First we have to simplify the expression within the brackets.

2 (2x + x +4y -2y)

  • 2( 3x + 2y)

We have the first equivalent expression. Now to obtain the second expression we apply distributive property:

2 (3x) + 2 ( 2y)

  • 6x + 4y

In conclusion 2(3x + 2y) and 6x + 4y are equivalent expressions to 2(2x + 4y + x − 2y).

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.
