First, let’s all acknowledge that whoever comes up with problems like this WANTS kids to hate math...smh
I’m sure there is a prettier way to solve this, but here’s what I did:
8(2.25) + 3(22.50) =
18 + 67.50 = 85.50 per “set” of balls/jerseys
400/85.50 = 4.678 = number of “sets” he can buy. Round down to 4 so we have room for tax.
85.5 x 4 “sets”= $342
Tax on 342 is 0.06 x 342 = 20.52
$342 + 20.52 = $362.52 spent
Basketballs = 4 sets x 8 balls per set= 32
Jerseys = 4 sets x 3 jerseys per set= 12
32 basketballs, 12 jerseys, $362.52 spent

Answer: 5(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
5*x = 5x
5*-1 = -5

Answer:
C. -3/4, -2/3, 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Just from observation, you can tell the 1/5 will be the greatest because all the other fractions are negative. Then, I converted them to decimal form to make it easier.
-2/3 = -0.6666666 (the 6 goes on forever)
-3/4 = -0.75
1/5= 0.20
Then, you put them in order.
-3/4 would be the least .
Followed by, -2/3
Finally, 1/5
