Answer:
Second : 1/6 x + 47
Third : 1 2/3 x + 35 - 1 1/2 x + 12
Fourth : 5 (1/3x) + (5) (7) - (3) (1/2x) + (3) (4)
Step-by-step explanation:
I would start by expanding the expression, showing each step. Then, simplify by collecting like terms.
To expand, you multiply the term outside of the brackets by each term inside the brackets.
5(1/3x + 7) - 3(1/2x - 4)
= 5(1/3x) + (5)(7) - (3)(1/2x) + (3)(4) Showing how to expand
= 5/3x + 35 - 3/2x + 12 Simplified above step by multiplying
= 5/3x - 3/2x + 47 Collected like terms (35 + 12 = 47)
= 10/6x - 9/6x + 47 Change fractions to the common denominator 6
= + 47 Combine fractions with common denominator
= 1/6x + 47 Fully expanded
See which options match the steps I took to expand the original expression.
The second step is the same as option 4.
The last step is the same as option 2.
I bolded those steps that are the same.
Some options use mixed fractions (whole numbers and fractions).
From the third step, I will convert the improper fractions to mixed fractions.
5/3x + 35 - 3/2x + 12
= 1 2/3x + 35 - 1 1/2x + 12
This is the same as option 3.
On the left side, 5 goes into 3 ONE time. The ONE becomes the whole number. After 5 goes into 3, there is 2 left, which becomes the numerator.
On the left side, 3 goes into 2 ONE time. The ONE becomes the whole number. The remainder is 1, which becomes the numerator.
Answer:
The cost of the 1 muffin is $1.5 and 1 quart of milk cost is $3 .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the cost of one muffins be x.
Let us assume that the cost of one 1 quarts of milk be y.
As given
The cost of 8 muffins and 2 quarts of mil is $18.
Than the equation becomes
8x + 2y = 18
As given
The cost of 3 muffins and 1 quart of milk is $7.50.
Than the equation becomes
3x + 1y = 7.50
Two equations are
8x + 2y = 18 and 3x + 1y = 7.50
Multiply 3x + 1y = 7.50 by 2 and subtracted from 8x + 2y = 18 .
Thus
8x - 6x + 2y - 2y = 18 - 15
2x = 3
x = 1.5
Put x = 1.5 in 3x + 1y = 7.50
3 × 1.5 + y = 7.50
y = 7.50 - 4.5
y = 3
Therefore the cost of the 1 muffin is $1.5 and 1 quart of milk cost is $3 .
