Answer:
4u+44
Step-by-step explanation:
The number 4 on the outside of the parentheses is being multiplied by everything within the parentheses, resulting in a product of 4u+44
distance = rate * time
2.56 meters = 2meter/min * t
divide by 2 on each side
2.56/2 =t
1.28 minutes =t
Answer:- a.The given expression is equivalent to

Thus a. is the right answer.
This is the same as averaging. You add them and divide by 2.
((m/n) + (p/q))/2 would be a number in between m/n and p/q.
Do note that n and q must be nonzero, but luckily that is a given.
