Question

I need help with this stuff and i need the answers step by step thank you!!

Answer 1

Answer:

2. A

3. C

4. B

Step-by-step explanation:

2. To answer # 2, just add all the sides together...

(5x-7) + (3x-4) + (2x-6)

=  10x - 17

3. To answer # 3, divide/mulitply both the numerators and denominators by the same number and check to see if that answer matches the displayed answer...

a) 28 divided by 7 is 4,  so divide the whole fraction by 7 to see if the fraction is proportional...  

  28/7 = 4

  49/7 = 7

   $\frac{4}{7} =\frac{4}{7}$

b) 4 goes into 16  4 times so multiply $\frac{4}{7}$ by 4...

   4 x 4 = 16

   7 x 4 = 28

   $\frac{16}{28}$ =  $\frac{16}{28}$

c) 4 goes into 16 4 times so multiply the whole fraction by 4...

   4 x 4 = 16

   7 x 4 = 28

   $\frac{16}{28}$ ≠ $\frac{16}{35}$

d) 4 goes into 20 5 times to multiply the whole fraction by 5...

   4 x 5 = 20

   7 x 5 = 35

   $\frac{20}{35} = \frac{20}{35}$

C is the answer because the fractions are not proportional.

4) 25% is a quarter of 100%. A third of 100% is 75%.

   $120 - 0.25($120) = $90

   Another expression for the for sale price is...

   B) 0.75($120) = $90
