15. 

2500 X 15 = 37500
37500 ÷ 100 = 375
375 + 200 = 575
The answer is C.


16. 
The easiest way to answer this question is by going through each answer one by one: 

14:6 = 28:18
28 <span>÷ 14 = 2
</span>18 <span>÷ 6 = 3
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by different numbers, we can establish that this is not a true proportion. 

42:7 = 6:2 
42 ÷ 7 = 6
7 ÷ 7 = 1
42:7 = 6:1
By dividing both numbers by the same number, we can establish that the answer is wrong. 

2:3 = 3:2
This is obviously wrong. That is because, in ratios, the order counts. So the first 3 is more than the first 2, therefore the second number on the other side of the ratio should be more than the first. 

3:5 = 12:20
12 <span>÷ 3 = 4
</span>20 <span>÷ 5 = 4
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by the same number, this is a true proportion. 

The answer is D.

Can u plz help me answer question 30
slamgirl [31]

We are given:

3x^3-2x^2

There seems to be nothing I can do to simplify this equation. However, I can factor out an x^2 since they both have at least an x^2. Here is what we get:

x^2(3x-2)

This is in the simplest form I can get into. I cannot do anything more to simplify this expression. This is your final answer.

Which of these statements is true? A. The interior angles of both a regular and irregular pentagon have a sum of 540o. B. The in
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

 Option A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

 The sum of interior angles of a polygon is given by (n-2) x 180°, where n is the number of sides.

 The sum of interior angles will not affect irregularity of polygon, it is same for regular and irregular polygon.

 For a pentagon n =5.

 Sum of interior angles = (5-2) x 180 = 3 x 180 = 540°

  Option A is the correct answer.
