Answer:7/8 of an inch
Step-by-step explanation: 1 and 1/4 inch is 5/4 inches, which can be converted into 10/8
10/8-3/8=7/8
1 → B
multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 6 outside
6(b-7) = 6b - 42
2 → D
multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 3 outside
3(4x+6y+2) = 12x+18y+6
3 → A
the value outside the parenthesis is -1, hence each term inside is multiplied by -1
-1(6x+5y) = -6x -5y
You distribute the 4 to the x and the -2. So the left side of the equation would look like 4x-8-3=9. Add 3 to both sides to get 4x-8=12. Add 8 to both sides and get 4x=20. Divide both sides by 4 and x =5
