lisov135 [29]
If you would like to know how many kilograms of fruit do you have, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 4/5 kg of cherries + 2 1/4 kg of strawberries = 3 4/5 + 2 1/4 = 19/5 + 9/4 = 76/20 + 45/20 = (76 + 45) / 20 = 121/20 = 6 1/20 kg of fruit

The correct result would be 6 1/20 kilograms of fruit.

Multiply each polynomial <br><br> (x + 5)(x+4)<br><br> teach me step by step
lara [203]

Answer: x^2 + 9x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Foil Method: (a + b) (c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

Lets say:

a = x

b = 5

c = x

d = 4

Plugging in the numbers: xx + 4x + 5x + 5*4

Combine like terms:

xx = x^2

4x + 5x = 9x

5 * 4 = 20

You're then left with: x^2 + 9x + 20
