The distributive property states that:
a(b+c)=ab+bc.
or more generally: a(b+c+d)=ab+av+ad.
This is a very useful tool to perform multiplication.
For example, if we want to multiply 7 by 234, we can proceed as follows:
7*234=7(200+30+4)=7*200+7*30+7*4=1400+210+28=1610+28=1638
back to our problem,
4 * 24 = 4(20+4)=4*20+4*4=80+16=96 ($)
So, instead of multiplying 4 by 24, we multiplied 4 by 20 and 4, which is easier, and then added these together.
Answer:
4 * 24 = 4(20+4) [=4*20+4*4=80+16=96 ($)]
Answer:
D) 42.16
Total: $553.13
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the subtotal, 510.97, by 8.25%. To do that just turn the 8.25% into a decimal which is 0.0825. The answer to that would be 42.155025 and rounded it would be 42.16 so the tax would be $42.16.
The total to the entire thing would be $553.13 since you just add the tax and subtotal together.
Answer:
Mia spent 68 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation would be 2(13.50) + 4(10.25) = x
Solving for the first part, you get 27 for adult tickets and 41 for the children tickets. When you add the two values, you get 68.
Okay, so since the discount is 60% of the price and it comes out to $2.8, we are going to form the following expression, where x is the original price.
60% of x = 2.8
Simply means: 60/100 * x = 2.8
You solve for x, which comes out to $4, which is your original price.
