Answer: what now sorry don’t know
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is how you do it...
Simplify the following:
k - 2 (k - (2 - k)) - 2
-(2 - k) = k - 2:
k - 2 (k + k - 2) - 2
Grouping like terms, k + k - 2 = (k + k) - 2:
k - 2 ((k + k) - 2) - 2
k + k = 2 k:
k - 2 (2 k - 2) - 2
-2 (2 k - 2) = 4 - 4 k:
k + 4 - 4 k - 2
Grouping like terms, k - 4 k - 2 + 4 = (4 - 2) + (k - 4 k):
(4 - 2) + (k - 4 k)
k - 4 k = -3 k:
-3 k + (4 - 2)
4 - 2 = 2:
Answer: 2 - 3 k
"<span>9 1/4 ounces of fertilizer, 3/4 ounce of fertilizer for each plant."
Divide the total amt. of fert. by the amt. that goes to each plant:
9 1/4 oz
-----------------------
(3/4) oz per plant
Convert 9 1/4 to an improper fraction: 9 1/4 = 37/4.
Now divide 37/4 by 3/4, or divide 37 by 3. Result: 12 1/3 plants.
Ms. Marks can fertilize 12 plants and have 1/3 oz of fertilizer left over.</span>
