Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
In the original expression = 37.4 - 54.9 = -17.5
So, we have to solve all the equations but 1 of them has to equal to -17.5
A) -54.9 + (-37.4) = -92.3
Remove parentheses
= -54.9 - 37.4
Subtract the numbers
-92.3
B) 54.9 - 37.4 = 17.5
Since 54.9 is greater than 37.4 just subtract normally
4 14
5 4. 9 < ------- Line up the decimal points like this
- 3 7. 4 <--------- Subtract the decimals
-----------------
1 7 . 5 <---------- This is the final answer to B.
C) 37.4 - (- 54.9) = 92.3
Change the sign to addition
=37.4 + 54.9
Add the numbers normally
54.9
+ 37. 4
--------------
92.3
D) 37.4 + (-54.9) = -17.5
Change the sign to subtraction
= 37.4 - 54.9
Subtract them normally (but as you can see you are subtracting a smaller number from a larger number so heres a trick that you can use switch the equation by putting the larger number in first like this....)
54.9 - 37.4 = 17.5 (REMEMBER the answer is not 17.5 because the original equation of D is reversed 37.4 - 54.9 so in this case your answer should be
- 17.5)
37.4 - 54.9 = -17.5
Your final answer is D because it matches 37.4 - 54.9.
Hope this helps!
The first thing we are going to do for this case is to define the following variable:
x = number of trees.
We then have that the equation that represents the problem is given by:
y = 50 (x-1) + 20
Rewriting:
y = 50x - 50 + 20
y = 50x - 30
Substituting for y = 390 we have:
390 = 50x - 30
We clear x:
x = (390 + 30) / (50)
x = 8.4
nearest whole integer
x = 8
Answer:
will be planted along one block about 8 trees.
