<u>Correct Question:</u>
What is the product in simplest form?
<u>Answer:</u>
is the product in simplest form
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We can find the simplest form of solving two fractions. So, to make the fractions multiplication simple, multiply two fractions in the numerator and divide it by the denominators of the two fractions. In the given case,
To simplify, multiply both 6 and 3 in numerator and multiply 11 and 4 in denominator of two fractions. So, we get
To simplify the above, divide 18 and 44 by their greatest common factor, which is 2. By doing this, we get
The problem statement is not clear regarding which money is invested. We will assume it is the 80% of $8750 that is set aside for future education. That amount is
... 0.80 × $8750 = $7000
If x represents the amount invested at 7%, then the total interest earned is
... (7000 -x)×4% + (x)×7% = 420
... 280 +0.03x = 420
... x = 140/0.03 ≈ 4666.67
$4666.67 was invested at 7%.
$2333.33 was invested at 4%.
Answer:
The statements that correctly represent the scenario stated are:
B. because losing 8 pounds is represented as -8 and doing this for 3 months would be 3 groups of -8 or 3 x -8
D. because they showed the weight loss as a negative integer and then put those into groups of 4 each using the distributive property)
The error with the other 2 choices is that the negative number is not correctly representing which part of the problem is a decrease. The negative sign is placed on the number of groups of.
