Alexander says that 3x + 4y is equivalent to (3)(4) + xy because of any order, any grouping. Is he correct why or why not
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Alexander is incorrect because the expressions are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the expression is evaluated for any value of x, y; the result will not be same.

For instance, let assume x = 1 and y = 2

3x + 4y = 3 + 4 = 7

(3)(4) + xy = (3)(4) + (1 * 2) = 12 + 2 = 14

So, the expressions are not the same and Alexander is incorrect.

katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. the peaches were on sale for 1.49 a pound. how much did lately spend on peaches
Leya [2.2K]
So Katelyn bought 5.68 pounds of peaches. And one pound of peaches cost $1.49. So that would mean that we would have to multiply the pounds of peaches she bought, with how much each pound costs. 5.68 × 1.49 = ?

Once you multiply these two decimals, you would get 8.4632. So she spent $8.4632 on 5.68 pounds of peaches. You would multiply the two decimals to find how much she spent in all.
