The answer is C.

The first step in a math problem with distribution involved is to take care of the parentheses (PEMDAS). This means you have to distribute 3/4 to the (x - 8).

I hope this helped!

Answer:

C. Distribute 3/4 over (x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are multiple ways to begin solving this problem.

If we want to cancel the 3/4 without using the distributive property, we would divide both sides by 3/4.  Dividing by 4/3 will not cancel it.

When dividing by fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal; this would be multiplying both sides by 4/3.  Multiplying by 3/4 will not cancel it.

Using the distributive property, we multiply (x-8) by the number in front of parentheses, 3/4.  We cannot distribute 4/3, since it is not part of the equation.

58):  Solution =====>    Letter Choice,  (C)      1.25m      =       1.50(m      -      2)

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

1.25m       =      1.5(m     −     2)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

1.25m     =        1.5(m    −      2)

1.25m     =      (1.5)(m)       +        (1.5)(−2)                                  (Distribute)

1.25m       =       1.5m          +           −3

1.25m        =       1.5m       −       3

Step 2: Subtract 1.5m from both sides.

1.25m      −       1.5m      =      1.5m     −      3      −       1.5m

−0.25m           =            −3

Step 3: Divide both sides by -0.25.

-0.25m/ -0.25        =          -3/ -0.25

m       =========>    12

Answer    ===========>      m       =        12



59):   Let  your Number be:    D  

Solution:     =====>    7D       =      5D        -      3   =====>  -3/2    =====>    -1.5

Seven Times a number:

7   *     D      or    7(D)

Three Less than Five Times that Number:

5D     -     3

7D       =        5D       -    3

Solve for D:

7D   =    5D     -    3

Subtract   5D   from both sides:

7D   -    5D      =    5D     -     3      -   5D

2D       =           -3

Divide both sides by  2:

2D/2     =       -3/2

D                   =             -3/2

Answer  ==>  D  ====>      -3/2     ========>    Letter Choice, (F)      - 1.5




60):    Letter Choice,   (C),    3x      -     9      =    5x  

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x       −      9       =         5x

Step 1: Subtract 5x from both sides.

3x      −       9       −      5x      =      5x     −      5x

−2x       −     9       =      0

Step 2: Add 9 to both sides.

−2x      −       9        +      9       =       0       +      9

−2x       =       9

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

-2x/ -2      =      9/ -2

x        =            -9/2

Answer   ========>         x         =       -9/2       =======>  4.5




61):   Subtract:

500    -      120

=      380

Need to total 500:

380

Find Number of Weeks Divide:

380/20    =      19  Weeks

7   *   19     =    133  

Days it will take Nichole to save  $500.00 =======>   133 Days





62):    Gridded Response:

Solve:

- 2(x     -     1 )       +        5x       =     2(2x        -     1 )  ======>      x     =      4

( -2 )(x)     +     ( -2)( - 1 )    +     5x     =   (2)(2x)      +    (2)( - 1 )

Distribute:

- 2x     +  2     +    5x     =     4x      +        - 2

( - 2x     +    5x )       +        (2)        =       4x     -     2       (Combine  Like terms):

3x    +   2        =    4x       -    2

3x         +      2     =      4x      -   2

Subtract   4x   From both sides:

3x     +    2      -     4x       =       4x     -     2      -    4x     -     x     +   2     =      -2

Subtract  2   from both sides:

-x     +     2    -   2       =         -2       -      2

-x         =       -4

Divide both sides  by     -1:

-x/ -1      =      -4/ -1

x         =     4

Answer   =====>      x      =      4           Check the Graph down below  for Gridded Response on Number 62.

willhelmina has 8.3 ounces of peanut butter if she makes 5 sandwiches with an equal amount of peanut butter on each how much pea
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Wilhelmina will put 1.66 ounces of peanut butter on each sandwich.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ounces of peanut butter Wilhelmina has = 8.3

Number of sandwiches prepared by her = 5

According to the question:

She puts equal amount of peanut butter on each sandwiches.

So,

We have to find the quantity of peanut butter used for each sandwiches.

Here the distribution is equal so we have to use division method.

Let ounces of peanut butter applied on each sandwich be 'x'

⇒ x= \frac{Ounces\ of\  peanut\ butter}{No.\ of\ sandwiches}

⇒ x=\frac{8.3}{5}

⇒ x =1.66 Ounces

So each sandwich will get 1.66 ounces of peanut butter.
