Answer:
D. Subtraction property of equality; n = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation that shows the cost of n basketballs uniforms,
C = 40n + 260
According to the question,
Total cost = $ 860,
⇒ 40n + 260 = 860
Using subtraction property of equality, subtract 260 on both sides,
⇒ 40n = 860 - 260
⇒ 40n = 600
Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 40.
⇒ n =
= 15.
Hence, 15 uniforms were purchased.
i.e. Option D is correct.
So the square was fine, then the triangle decided to go for a hike.
now, if the triangle when it took off, it took 59 cm², and the square was left all by its lonesome with only 85 cm², that means with the triangle in it, the square is then 59 + 85 cm², or 144 cm².
