The term (2 + 8) is described as the total amount of pieces of fabric. It makes it easier to put this term this way so you wouldn't have to do (8 x 5) + (2 x 5) and do the distributive property.

Answer:

The expression in the parenthesis refers to the first pieces Ali bought for $5, the second term +3 refers to the cost of the pack of buttons.

Basically, 2+8 is grouped in a parenthesis because both have the same cost of $5, so in this case we can use the distributive property. So, that of the expression just represents that, the same cost for the first 2 whit pieces and 8 blue pieces.

The last term +3 is not included in the parenthesis because it refer to a pack of buttons that has a different costs, it would be an error to include it inside the parenthesis.

if the measure of &lt;BEC is (2x+3)° and x=30, which expression could represent the measure of &lt;AED?​
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The answer is 3x-27

Step-by-step explanation:

If the angles are vertical from each other it means they are congruent. 2x+30 is 63, you plug in the x, 2(30)+30. You do that to the second one and also get 63, 3(30)-27. Therefore 3x-21 is the answer.

Mick paid 2.94 in sales tax on an item that costs 42 dollars before tax. At that rate how much would he pay in sales tax for an
djverab [1.8K]
Mick would pay $4.06 in sales tax for an item that costs $58.00.

This can be found by working backwards in the problem. By dividing that sales tax paid (2.94) by the dollars before tax (42), you get a percentage that should equal the percentage of the total paid for tax.

2.94 ÷ 42 = 0.07

This means that the sales tax is 7% of the total prior to tax. So we'd then multiply our dollars (58) with the sales tax in decimal form (0.07)

58.00 × 0.07 = 4.06

Hope I could help!
