k = -7/9
Step-by-step explanation:
9k + 3 = -4
9k = -7
k = -7/9

Answer:
1. D) 1 9/20
2. B) 7/12
4. D) $50.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The working is as follows :
1. Mrs. Lang bought 3/4 pound of red grapes and 7/10 pound of green grapes. To find out how many are in total we have to add both values total.
3/4 + 7/10
The LCM of 4 and 10 is 20.
3/4 * 5 = 15/20
7/10 * 2 = 14/20
15/20 + 14/20 = 29/20 = 1 9/20
2. 1/3 + 1/4
The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12
1/3 * 4 = 4/12
1/4 * 3 = 3/12
4/12 + 3/12 = 7/12
4. Sharon spent 2/3 of her clothing allowance; she was given $75. All we have to do is find 2/3 of $25 :
2/3 * $75 = $50.00
-12 * 2 is -24, and any number can be added to 2.
