Agree with the one at the top it’s 36
Solution:
Given:
Since b and d are nonzero elements, then it is the product of two rational numbers.
Multiplying two rational numbers produces another rational number.
Therefore, the product is a rational expression.
OPTION C is the correct answer.
A. Stiles. For Melendez, each family member uses about 390 kilowatts of electricity. For Barton, each family member uses about 355 kilowatts of energy. Stiles uses 745 kilowatts per family member. 745 divided by 355 rounds up to 2 while 745 divided by 390 rounds up to 2. This means that the Stiles family uses twice the amount of electricity per person than the other families.
b. The Melendez family. The Melendez family uses 875 gallons per family member. The Barton family uses about 1067 gallons of water while the Stiles family uses about 1250 gallons. 875< 1067< 1250. This means that the Melendez family uses the least amount of water per family member.
Use PEMDAS
first 36-4 = 32
7^2 = 49
(32/16) - 49 is your answer -47
Suppose that the farmer had bought the rice at x dollars per bag and had sold them at a 25% markup. How much did the bags cost him before he added the markup? 1.25x =$75 results in $75/1.25, or $60 per bag.
If he sold 25 bags, his profit would be 1.25($60/bag)(25 bags) = $1875.
I very seriously doubt that the rice was $7500 per bag. Perhaps you meant $75/bag...?
