Answer:

Clara makes error after opening the bracket she did not changes the sign of  r .

Correct simplification of  (8b-4r)-(2b-r) is 6b- 3r .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given the expression in the question be

= (8b-4r)-(2b-r)

Open the bracket

= 8b - 4r - 2b + r

Solving the above

= 6b - 3r

Clara makes error after opening the bracket she did not changes the sign of  r .

Therefore the correct simplification of  (8b-4r)-(2b-r) is 6b- 3r .

A baseball bat costs $41. This is $9 more than four times the wholesale cost of the bat.Find the bat's wholesale cost.
Lostsunrise [7]

We can find the bat's wholesale cost by working backwards -

Do $41 - 9 to get $32, then we can divide the 32 by the 4 to get $8.

Therefore, the wholesale cost of the bat is $8.


Happy to help!
