Answer:
I did not get this one right, but I will tell you that I know a lot of people, including me who put:
B and D.
Those two together are NOT right. and the other question I got wrong was number 5. That answer is not D. So don't put that. Everything else, I got correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute
remember
a(b+c)=ab+ac
2(2.5q+8)=2(2.5q)+2(8)=5q+16
1-5q+5q+16
1+0+16
17
Answer: The answer is 60
Step-by-step explanation: 40% = .4 because % means hundredths. So 40% = 40/100 = .4
Let x be the total number of marbles.
Then, .4x = 24
Divide both sides by .4
x = 60 and 24 is 40% of 60 marbles
Given parameters:
Weight of Tan = 146pounds
Unknown:
Weight of Minh = ?
Following this problem step wisely, we can derive a solvable algebraic equation;
Let the weight of Minh = M
In the second sentence, we see that Minh weighs 15pounds more than Tan;
So;
M = 15 + Weight of Tan
Since we already know the weight of Tan,
Weight of Minh = 15 + 146 = 161pounds
We clearly see that Minh's weight will be 161 pounds.
