Complete Question
We can calculate EEE, the amount of euros that has the same value as DDD U.S. Dollars, using the equation
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
Answer:
a) 0.85 euros
b) 1.18 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is given as:
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
E = 17/20D
D = 1 dollar
Hence:
E = 17/20 × 1
E = 0.85 euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
E = 17/20D
E = 1 euro
1 = 17/20D
D = 1 ÷ 17/20
D = 1 × 20/17
D = 1.1764705882 dollars
D = 1.18 dollars
The answer is: [A]: He did not apply the distributive property correctly for 4(1 + 3i) .
_____________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________
Note the distributive property of multiplication:
_____________________________
a*(b+c) = ab + ac.
____________________________
As such: 4*(1 + 3i) = (4*1) + (4*3i) = 4 + 12i ;
_____________________________________
Instead, Donte somehow incorrectly calculated:
_____________________________________
4*(1 + 3i) = (4*1) + 3i = 4 + 31; (and did the rest of the problem correctly);
Note: - (8 - 5i) = -8 + 5i (done correctly;
___________________________________
So if Donte did not apply the distributive property correctly for 4*(1+3i)—and incorrect got 4 + 3i (as mentioned above); but did the rest of the problem correctly, he would have got:
_____________________________
4+ 3i - 8 + 5i = -4 + 8i (the incorrect answer as stated in our original problem.

Step-by-step explanation:
- if you want to round off to the nearest tenth, you need to change the last unit. so it become to 2 720 130
