Question 1: Four expressions are shown below:
vekshin1

Answers;

Question 1 answer: The first and last option.

Question 1 explanation: 2(4x + 2) is 4x = 12 = 2 = 14 x 2 = 28 and 8x + 4 is 8 x 4 = 32 + 4 = 36 which is 8 more than 28 then, 3x = 9 + 2 + 3 x 2 = 28.

2(4x + 2) = 28 and 8x + 4 equals 36 which is 8 more and they're both equivalent to 2(3x + 2 + x) because 2(3x = 2 = x) equals 28.

Fiona Follies is a small bakery that sells cupcakes and muffins. A cupcake sells for $3 and a muffin sells for $2. When all rela
Elan Coil [88]

Note that fiona cannot sell decimal number of cupcakes or muffins. That's why the options A and D are false.

Consider all remaining options:

B. 40 cupcakes and 80 muffins will cost $(40·3+80·2)=$(120+160)=$280, but Fiona Follies sold at least $300 worth of cupcakes and muffins. Thus, this option is false.

C. 60 cupcakes and 70 muffins will cost $(60·3+70·2)=$(180+140)=$320. Now consider expenses. $(60·0.75+70·0.5)=$(45+35)=$80. This option is true.

E.  80 cupcakes and 80 muffins will cost $(80·3+80·2)=$(240+160)=$400. Now consider expenses. $(80·0.75+80·0.5)=$(60+40)=$100 (exactly $100). This option is true.

Answer: correct options are C and E.
