If your question is, "how much had Mr. Kork paid for the car?"

(8,400-200)/.4=$20,500

Achristensen's answer is correct. Just want to add a little more explanation how to arrive at the result.

let x be the original price.

Rewrite the verbal question as an equation using x:

8400 = 200 + 2/5 * x

solve for x:

8400-200 = 2/5*x

5/2*8200 = x

x = 20500

The original price was $20,500

What is 1 and 1/4 minus 3/8?
matrenka [14]

Answer: 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can change all the fractions to have equivalent denominators.

The Least Common Denominator of 1 1/4 and 3/8 is 8. Now we can change the fractions.

1 1/4 = 1 2/8 = 10/8.

3/8 = 3/8.

Now we can subtract. Subtract the numerators of the first fraction from the numerators of the second fraction, and the denominators oft he first fraction to the denominators of the second fraction.

10/8 - 3/8 = 7/8.

Therefore, 1 1/4 - 3/8 = 7/8; the fourth answer.

Suppose a jar contains 13 red marbles and 11 blue marbles. If you reach in the jar and pull out 2 marbles at random at the same
Alisiya [41]
I’d say around 75% or less

This is just an assumption considering that there are more red than blue but only trumps blue by 2. Taking out those two, you’d be left with a 50% chance of getting red and/or blue marbles

Can someone pls tell me if this is correct? For the properties, <3 and the bottom one too
saul85 [17]
1. Commutative property of multiplication This is because it represents a*b=b*a
2. Associative property of multiplication. Multiplication problems end with the same product no matter the order of factors.
3. Correct
4. Correct
5. Associative property of addition. Even though the grouping symbols are different, it is equivalent because you are adding all the terms together.
6. Correct

The last one should also be associative property since it applies every time you combine like terms.
Just a reminder: Distributive property is only when you multiply in the form of a(b+c)=ab+ac
