Answer:
See below (I hope this helps!)
Step-by-step explanation:
When dividing exponential terms of the same base, we can simply subtract the exponents, therefore:
Answer:
A = (x + 15)(x + 10) − 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+15)(x+10)-5=A would be a solution
To make this easier, let's assign x a value. Let's say 3.
(3+15)(3+10)-5=A
(18)(13)-5=A
234-5=A
A=229
Now with this, we put x in the answer choice and the answer that gives an area of 229 is correct.
A. A=(3+20)(3+10)+12=(23)(13)+12=299+12=311 <u>Answer A is wrong.</u>
B. A=(3+20)(3+10)-12=(23)(13)-12=299-12=287 <u>Answer B is wrong.</u>
C. A=(3+26)(3+15)=(29)(18)=522 <u>Answer C is wrong.</u>
D. A=(3+14)(3+8)=(17)(11)=187 <u>Answer D is wrong.</u>
It's either I'm wrong or the answer choices are wrong.
New answer choices!
A. A=(3+20)(3+11)
=(23)(14)=322 Answer A is wrong.
B. A=(3+15)(3+10)+5
=(18)(13)+5=234+5=239 Answer B is wrong.
C. A=(3+15)(3+10)−5
=(18)(13)-5=234-5=229 Answer C is correct.
D. A=(3+9)(3+10)=(12)(13)=156 <u>Answer D is wrong.</u>

because 5 goes up and anything lower than five stays the same
You take the amount paid and divide it by the amount of cheese. So 10.50 divided by 2.5 equals 4.2 and 12.60 divided by 3 equals 4.2 meaning that one pound of cheese costs $4.20
