Answer:
9(x +y)
Step-by-step explanation:
You observe that both terms have a coefficient of 9. The distributive property lets you factor that out, so you can rewrite the expression as ...
9x +9y = 9(x +y)
_____
It might help to think of parentheses as a "bag." The expression 9(x+y) tells you the contents of one bag is (x+y) and you have 9 of them. You could think of x, and y as representing two different physical objects, for example, perhaps a ball and a cube.
The first expression, 9x +9y, tells you that you have 9 of each of these objects. The distributive property says this could be the result of dumping the contents of 9 bags, each containing one each of the objects. The expression 9(x+y) is the version of the expression that shows these objects as being grouped into 9 bags.
<u><em>PART A</em></u>
If 4 pounds = 10 dollars...
4/2 = 2
10/2 = 5
<u>So for 2 pounds, it would cost </u><u>$5.00</u>
Now for the 1 pound one
4/1 = 4
10/4 = 2.5
<u>For the 1 pound one, it would cost </u><u>$2.50</u>
<u></u>
<u><em>PART B</em></u>
We know that 4 pounds = 10 bucks
Since 1 is 1/10 of 10 (in the cost section), we have to apply this to the pounds section. 4/10 = 0.4. Therefore, <u>$1 = 0.4lb</u>
Now for the last blank...
Since $1 = 0.4, we multiply that by 9. 0.4 x <u>$9 = 3.6lb</u>
