Which statement would be true if you evaluate the expression 15x(465x4)

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you are using the letter x as the multiplication sign.

Start with:

15 x (465 x 4)

We know that 15 = 3 x 5

Now we replace 15 with 3 x 5 in the original expression.

15 x (465 x 4) = 3 x 5 x (465 x 4)

Answer: c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)

Answer: After they've played 8 games, they will have the same amount of money remaining.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of games by the variable x and the remaining amount of money by the variable y.

Deanna's situation can be represented by the equation y = 15 - 0.75x

Lisa's situation can be represented by the equation y = 13 - 0.50x

Now to find out how many games they will have the same amount of money remaining, you have to use substitution and solve for x.

15 - 0.75x = 13 - 0.50x

-13 -13

2 - 0.75x = - 0.50x

+0.75x +0.75x

2 = 0.25x

x = 8
