Are you able to expand everything first? from there you would be able to combine line terms. basically if you have 3x+2x it would combine to 5x because they have x in them.

2(x/2 -5)-3/2(x+7/4)
= x-10-3x/2-21/8
Then we,combine like terms;
= -x/2-101/8
Then,take out -1/2 to simply the equation.

= -1/2(x+101/4)

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is the length times width times height.

V = LWH

V = (4√3)(3√6)W

V = 12√18 W

V = 36√2 W

If the volume is irrational, then W cannot have a radical that is half of a perfect square, because when multiplied by √2, that would yield a rational volume.  For example, √18 × √2 = √36 = 6.

Therefore, the answer must be B, because 12 is not half of a perfect square.

V = 36√2 (4√12)

V = 144√24

V = 288√6

A)
Let x represent the cost of 1 student, and y the cost of 1 teacher.

B)
In the first group, there's 25 students and 2 teachers. Their total cost is $97.50
So 25x + 2y = 97.50
In the second group, there's 32 students and 3 teachers. Their total cost is $127
So 32x + 3y = 127

We get the following system of equations:
25x + 2y = 97.50 (1)
32x + 3y = 127 (2)

C)
25x + 2y = 97.50 (1)
32x + 3y = 127 (2)

In equation (1)
25x + 2y = 97.50
25x + 2y - 2y = 97.50 - 2y
25x = 97.50 - 2y
25x / 25 = 97.50/25 - 2y/25
x = 3.9 - (2/25)y

In equation (2), let's replace x by its algebraic value
32x + 3y = 127
32(-2/25y + 3.9) + 3y = 127
11/25y + 124.8 = 127
11/25y + 124.8 - 124.8 = 127 - 124.8
11/25y = 2.2
(11/25y) / (11/25) = 2.2 / (11/25)
y = 5

x = -2/25y + 3.9
x = -2/25 * 5 + 3.9
x = 3.5

So the cost of each student is $3.5, and the cost of each teacher is $5.

Hope this helps! :)
