➷ When you add fractions, you have to have the same denominator whereas, when you multiply them, you don't have to. (In this case the denominators are already the same.) Also, multiplying the fractions would make the result smaller whereas adding them would make it larger.

➶ Good Luck (:

ONLY GIVING BRAINLYEST IF YOU ANSWER QUICKLY AND CORRECTLY

k0ka [10]

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to solve the first equation. (Hint: you use the distributive property.)

2(5x + 2 + x)

10x + 4 + 2x

12x + 4

We can already see that B is correct and A is incorrect.

Now to solve C and D.

C = 2(5x + 3)

10x + 6

This is incorrect.

D = 2(6x + 2)

12x + 4

This is correct.

harmaine spent a total of $20 at the grocery store. Of this amount, $9 she spent on fruit. What percentage of the total did she

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

45%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's set up a fraction of how much money she spent for fruit out of the total amount of money she spent.

$\frac{9}{20}$

For a percentage, we need a fraction out of 100. To do this, we can multiply the fraction by 5/5 (5*20=100). Notice we can only do this since 5/5 is equivalent to 1, so you are technically multiplying the fraction by 1.

$\frac{9}{20}*\frac{5}{5}=\frac{45}{100}$

A percentage is just the numerator of a number over 100 therefore it is equal to...

45%

choli [55]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}meals&\$\\\cline{1-2}3&7.25\\12&x\end{array}\implies \cfrac{3}{12}=\cfrac{7.25}{x}\implies \cfrac{1}{4}=\cfrac{7.25}{x}\\\\\\ x=\cfrac{4\cdot 7.25}{1}\implies x=29$
