Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A
(m² - 3m + 2) / (m² - m)
we see due to a little bit of experience with expressions and multiplications of expressions that
(m² - 3m + 2) = (m - 2)(m - 1)
(m² - m) = m(m - 1)
so,
(m - 2)(m - 1) / (m(m - 1)) = (m - 2) / m
so, that's not it.
B
(m² - 2m + 1) / (m - 1)
we see again
(m² - 2m + 1) = (m - 1)(m - 1)
so,
(m - 1)(m - 1) / (m - 1) = m - 1
so, that's not it.
C
(m² - m - 2) / (m² - 1)
we see again
(m² - m - 2) = (m - 2)(m + 1)
and
(m² - 1) = (m + 1)(m - 1)
so,
(m - 2)(m + 1) / ((m + 1)(m - 1)) = (m - 2) / (m - 1)
yes, that is the solution.
D
(2m² - 4m) / (2(m - 2))
2m(m - 2) / (2(m - 2)) = 2m/2 = m
no, that is not a solution.
Answer:
5 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution,
4 apples are required for a pie tin with a diameter of 8 inches
For 1 inch of the pie tin 8/4=2 apples are required.
For 10 inches 10/2=5 apples are required.
You figure out the amount of chocolate doughnuts sold by multiplying 2/3 by 7 1/4
first you change 7 1/4 to an improper fraction:
7 1/4= 29/4
now multiply 2/3×29/4 by multiplying the two numerators then putting that over the two denominators multiplied: (2×29)/(3×4)=58/12
now simplify:58/12=4 10/12= 4 5/6
the answer is Stanley's doughnut shop sold
4 5/6 trays of chocolate doughnuts
