Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is evaluating, all you have to do is replace the b's that you see with 9s
2b for b=9
2(9)
18
D, one number is positive and the other is negative. The only way it could equal 0 is to cross the other out. An example is, -5+5=0
Okay so
#1
4 for 5 would mean each single M&M is 1.25 (5/4)
9 for 25 would mean each single M&M is about 2.78 (25/9)
4 for 5 is the better deal
#2
10 for 35 is 3.50 each (35/10)
12 for 40 is about 3.34 each (40/12)
#3
85 divided by four is 21.25 meaning you'd spend about 22 cents each
the hardware store has a better deal seeing as 19 cents each is cheaper
#4
so 13 divided by 1.4 is about 9.3 so Raisin Bran has less sugar per ounce of cereal
