Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Commutative property of addition says that if we add two or many numbers, order doesn't matter.

Let there are three numbers a, b, and c.

When we add them by commutative property, result will remain same.

If we add [(a + b)+ c] or [a + (b + c)], result will be same.

Therefore, 12x + 15x - 11x = (12 + 15 - 11)x

= (27 - 11)x

= 16x

Option A. Commutative property will be the answer.

Answer:

1 more slice

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 of the pizza would be 4 since (8÷2=4)

So since we need 4 pizza slices to be gone in order to make 1/2 of the pizza...

and since we know that there are three slices missing....

the equation for this is 8-3=5 and we can't have 5 we need 4 so we need 1 more slice to be eaten

An accident at an oil drilling platform is causing a circular-shaped oil slick to form. The volume of the oil slick is roughly g

Basile [38]

Answer:

$V(t)=0.0112\pi t^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$V(r)=0.07\pi r^{2}$ -----> equation A

$r(t)=0.4t$ -----> equation B

To find out (V of r)(t) substitute equation B in equation A

$V(r(t))=V(t)$

$V(t)=0.07\pi (0.4t)^{2}$

$V(t)=0.07\pi (0.16)t^{2}$

$V(t)=0.0112\pi t^{2}$

While shopping, Dawn finds a backpack that she likes on the sale rack. Its original price is $60,

Nadya [2.5K]

No. Because 33 $ is the money deducted from the 60 $. Dawn bought everything for less than 60 $.

So, if Dawn purchases everything on the rack with a 30% discount and 15% coupon the total will indeed make 45%.

We have to take 100% - 45%= 55% to know the reduction number. Let's proceed to the calculations now.

100%= 60 $

1%=60/100

55%= 60/100 × 55 = 33 $

Now NOTE; 33 $ is the money reduced from the 60 $. So, logically, 33 $ isn't the amount which Dawn purchased the whole rack. 

To find the amount at which she purchased everything, we need to do,

60 $ - 33 $ = 27 $
