The dimensions are factors of the expression
... you multiply them together to get the area
the factors are ... (x - 7) & (x + 2)
8 5 and 18 8
7 2 9 2
8 - 5 = 3, 8 - 7 = 1, 5 - 2 = 3 and 18 - 8 = 10, 18 - 9 = 9, 9 - 2 = 7, 8 - 2 = 6
Answer: -9/20 is equal to -9/10 when divided by 3/6 (1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
- Begin by reducing the fraction you're dividing with. In this case 3/6 can be reduced to 1.2, also known as 0.5
- Beginning with -9/20, as it is the first answer option, we can put the problem into the following equation: -9/20 * 2/1 = -9/10.
It is always good to verify all of your answer options are not possible answers. However, in a question like this, the math evenly works out in most cases, eliminating any other possible answer options.

I'm not really sure for 3, but for 4, it is not free of influence since they are waiting for a horror movie.
What would be better for question 4 is to ask people at the lobby or something before they are entering a movie theater so the results aren't "contaminated".
