(a) how much potting soil he bought last week
(b) 28 = 2p + 4
(c) 28 = 2p + 4....subtract 4 from both sides
     28 - 4 = 2p...simplify
     24 = 2p...divide both sides by 2
     24/2 = p....simplify
     12 = p......12 solves the equation
(d) He bought 12 lbs of potting soil last week

If Tina traveled 1,000 miles in 5 hours on her plane flight to her vacation destination, how fast was the plane traveling? A.200
belka [17]
OK so for this it will be simple 
1,000 divided by 200 is 5 
so if the plane took 5 hours to do 1,000 miles then the plane was traveling at option A. 200 miles per hour.

Solve the compound inequality -4&lt;3p-7&lt;5. and graph
Evgen [1.6K]
Negative four times 3p is -12p so then -12p-7 <5. Then add 7 to five and get -12p<12. Divide by -12, change direction of symbol because you are dividing by a negative and get p>-1.

What is the value of the expression? 3(6/8−1/2)+0.25
Luden [163]
If I am correct the answer is 1. 
You can do multiply 3 by 6/8 which will give you 2 1/4 or if in a decimal 2.25.
Then do 3 by -1/2 which will give you -1 1/2 and in decimal its -1.5.
You continue with the equation, 2.25 -1.5 = 0.75 + 0.25 = 1
Add them all together and you get 1...!

Hope this Helps :)
