Distribute
to every term inside the parentheses.

Simplify with multiplication.

You can't simplify further by adding, so leave the answer as-is.
Answer:
1080
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, if he is paying 50 per month, we need to know the number of months it would take him to finish paying the money. Hence that would be 800/50 = 16 months
Now we know there is a surcharge of 17.5 for each month he owes a balance. The total balance he is to pay is thus 16 * 17.5 = 280
The total cost of the jacket is thus 800 + 280 = 1080
Answer:
To provide a baseline for judging the survival rates of infants who received whole-body cooling
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the purpose of the experiment is to see whether reducing body temperature for three days after birth increased the rate of survival without brain damage.
Then, the proposed method (whole-body cooling) has to be contrasted with the baseline, in this case, the "usual care". If we want to know if this proposed method is statistically better, we have to compare with these baseline with random sampling out of the same population.
If it is not compared to nothing or to a new method, it wouldn't be possible to conclude if the method is better or not than the usual care.
The first equation is

The second equation is

If you sum the two equations you'll cancel y:

And since the sum must be 11, we have y=9.
