Answer:

10.7a - 8.1b

Step-by-step explanation:

the simplest form of the expression (14.2a + 9.8b) - (13.1b - 0.2a) - (3.7a + 4.8b)

(14.2a + 9.8b) - (13.1b - 0.2a)- (3.7a + 4.8b)

To subtract the expressions we multiply negative sign inside the second parenthesis, change the sign of each term in second and third parenthesis

14.2a + 9.8b - 13.1b + 0.2a-3.7a-4.8b

Now we combine like terms

14.2a +0.2a-3.7a = 10.7a

9.8b - 13.1b-4.8b=-8.1b

So the expression becomes

10.7a - 8.1b

Adam buys a bigger turkey than he needs. The turkey he buys weighs 7 kg. Below are the cooking instructions for the turkey. Cook
pishuonlain [190]
Given:
7 kg turkey

cooking time: over 4kg;
allow 20 minutes per kg plus 90 minutes
leave to rest for 30 minutes before carving

20 * 7 = 140 minutes + 90 minutes = 230 minutes cooking time
230 minutes + 30 minutes to rest = 300 minutes all in all

300 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 5 hours

If he plans to carve the turkey at 17:15,

17:15 - 5:00 = 12:15

then he should cook the turkey at 12:15
