Answer:
2. B
3. B
4. 2(7k+5h)
5. $325
Step-by-step explanation:
2) "X decreased by the sum of 2x + 5" Decreased means to be lowered, so that means this problem has subtraction in it. It also says x is being decreased BY the sum of 2x + 5 so that means 2x + 5 needs to be solved, which calls for parentheses. B best fits the description.
3) It is B because if you distribute the 8 to 2a and 3b, you'll get 16a and 24b, which is the given expression.
4) The given expression is 10h + 14k and in the equivalent expression, you are given 5h. To get from 10 to 5, you must divide by 2. This tells you that 2 is being distributed, so you put 2 before the parentheses. Since you divided 10 by 2, you want to do the same to 14, which is 7. Therefore, it is 2(7k+5h).
5) You are given the hourly charge, which is $25. This means that they charge $25 per hour/for every hour. You want to find the cost for 13 hours, so you multiply the hourly charge by 13 hours. 25 x 13 = 325.
3.0 x 10^8 km/s is how far light travels.
3.0 x 10^8 km/s x 60s is how far light travels in a minute
3.0 x 10^8 x 60 x 5 is how far light travels in 5 minutes, and you should get D as your answer.
Answer:
Q1
|a-b| = b-a when a<b
Q2
104159/33000
Step-by-step explanation:
Q1
If a<b then a-b will always be negative. To get the absolute value, we can take -(a-b) = -a+b = b-a.
Q2
Let x = 3.12789789789...
We isolate the repeating decimal to start after the decimal, so we multiply by 100.
100x = 312.789789789...
We want to multiply by 10 for each digit that repeats (in this case 3), to get the repeating part to the left of the decimal.
100000x = 312789.789789
Subtracting the two...
x(100000-100) = 312789.789789 - 312.789789
99900x = 312477
x = 312477/99000 = 104159/33000
