Answer : H-2
I can sure that's the answer
What fractions? I see nothing...Do you have the choices?
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
8 is LESS THAN 1/2x
so youd take those numbers and multiply by 1/2
C, B, and A are all under 8, so that would be wrong
when you multiply 1/2 with 17, you get 8.5 which is bigger than 8. then everything else above that is more than 8, therefore D is the right answer.
Don't get too involved in the 'simplify' part just yet.
It doesn't mean make the problem easier.
It means that when you have the answer, make sure it's in simplest form.
That's why it says "Simplify your answer".
Notice that that's the 2nd instruction.
There's nothing to simplify until you have an answer.
The first thing you have to do here is find the area of a triangle.
Do you remember that formula ?
I'll bet you do.
The area of a triangle is (1/2) · (length of the base) · (height) .
The height and the length of the base are given, right there
in the picture. Take those, and use them to find the area.
Once you've multiplied the binomials, don't forget about the (1/2).
Finally, you have a trinomial for an answer.
Put the big sweet cherry on top: Factor it !
I think that's the 'simplify' part.
You may be surprised.
I was when I worked it out just now ... just for you.
