#1:
Solve:
-5/12 x 8/13 = -40/156
-40/156 can both be divided by 4: 40 ÷ 4 = 10 & 156 ÷ 4 = 39
Your final answer is: Option 2, -10/39
#2
Solve:
3/8 x (-3/6) you can first simplify 3/6 into 1/2 so-- 3/8 x (-1/2) = -3/16
Your answer is: -3/16
I've solved two of them for you, can you solve the rest on your own? (Reply if you need more answers)
<span>4(x+5) = 4x +5x
Simplify by distributing and combining like terms
</span>(4)(x)+(4)(5)=4x+5x
4x+20=4x+5x
4x+20=(4x+5x)
4x+20=9x
Subtract 9x from each side
4x+20−9x=9x−9x
5x+20=0
<span />
Subtract 20 from each side
−5x+20−20=0−20
−5x=−20
Divide each side by -5
-5x ÷ -5 = -20 ÷ -5
x = 4
P.S this was actually harder than most algebra problems, so don't beat yourself about it :D<span /><span /><span /><span /><span />
They need to get at least 250 boxtops each day to meet or exceed the goal. Hope this helps!
