Answer:

He isn't correct. He spent 25% more time this week than the previous one.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will make proportion.

first week 20 hours  is 100%

second week 25 hours is x%

20 : 25 = 100 : x

When we multiply external and internal members we get:

20x =25 · 100 =>  x = 2500/20 = 125%

We conclude the following:

Evan spent 125% of the time in hours compared to the last week or Evan spent 25% more time this week than the previous one.

God with you!!!

The distributive property states that:

a(b+c)=ab+bc.

or more generally: a(b+c+d)=ab+av+ad.



This is a very useful tool to perform multiplication.

For example, if we want to multiply 7 by 234, we can proceed as follows:

7*234=7(200+30+4)=7*200+7*30+7*4=1400+210+28=1610+28=1638


back to our problem,

4 * 24 = 4(20+4)=4*20+4*4=80+16=96  ($)

So, instead of multiplying 4 by 24, we multiplied 4 by 20 and 4, which is easier, and then added these together.


Answer:  

4 * 24 = 4(20+4)        [=4*20+4*4=80+16=96 ($)]

Answer:

7/5 y --> y+ 2/5y

0.68y --> y - 0.32y

3/5y --> y - 2/5y

1.32y --> y+ 0.32y

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend there is a 1 in front of each y that doesn't have a number (coefficient) in front of it. 1 = 5/5, and then just solve for the fraction expressions.
