Problem 37
<h3>Answer: B. 4 & 1/4 gallons</h3>
-------------------
Work Shown:
The 3/4 and 1/2 add up to (3/4)+(1/2) = (3/4)+(2/4) = 5/4 = 1&1/4
The whole part 1 is then added to the other whole parts 1 and 2 to get 1+2+1 = 4
Overall, the grand total is 4 & 1/4
An alternative way is to convert each mixed number to a decimal to get 1&1/2 = 1+1/2 = 1+0.5 = 1.5 and 2&3/4 = 2+3/4 = 2+0.75 = 2.75
Add up those decimals 1.5+2.75 = 4.25
then convert that result to a mixed number: 4.25 = 4+0.25 = 4+1/4 = 4&1/4

Problem 38
<h3>Answer: C. Cubic feet</h3>
----------------
The units for volume follow the template "Cubic _____" where you'll write "feet", "inches", "centimeters" or whatever unit you are using in the blank.
Some other examples:
* cubic miles
* cubic meters
* cubic yards
21,000+21,000=42,000

Answer:
60 feet of fencing
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x feet be the width of the garden plot, then 2x feet is the length of the garden plot.
The area of the garden plot is
Find the perimeter of the rectangular garden plot:
Simplify -5x + 12 - 7x to -12x + 12
-12x + 12 = -3(5x + 8)
Expand
-12x + 12 = -15x - 24
Add 15x to both sides
-12x + 12 + 15x = -24
Simplify 12x + 12 + 15x to 3x + 12
3x + 12 = -24
Subtract 12 from both sides
3x = -24 - 12
Simplify -24 - 12 to -36
3x = -36
Divide both sides by 3
x = -36/3
Simplify 36/3 to 12
<u>x = -12</u>
