The equivalent expression on expanding -1/4 (-8x + 12y) is 2x - 3y
<h3>Expansion of expression</h3>
Expansion of expression can be carried out using the distributive rule a shown:
A(B + C) = AB + AC
Note that <u>A is distributed over B and C</u>
Given the expression
-1/4 (-8x + 12y)
-1/4(-8x) - 1/4(12y)
2x - 3y
Hence the equivalent expression on expanding -1/4 (-8x + 12y) is 2x - 3y

Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
<u>Find the equation of the inequality A</u>
we know that
The solution of the inequality A (dashed line) is the shaded area below the dashed line
The equation of the dashed line is 
therefore
The equation of the inequality A is
step 2
<u>Find the equation of the inequality B</u>
we know that
The solution of the inequality B (solid line) is the shaded area below the solid line
The equation of the solid line is 
therefore
The equation of the inequality B is
The system of linear inequalities is

Answer:
If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
He makes a trail mix . He mixed 1 1/8 pounds of peanuts , 12 ounces of raisins, 11 ounces of walnuts and 7 ounces of pretzels. Notice the weight units are not equal to we have to convert the pounds to ounces so all the weight will be in ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces
1 1/8 pounds = ? ounces
cross multiply
1 1/8 × 16
9/8 × 16 = 18 ounces
Therefore,
His trail mix are
18 ounces of peanuts
12 ounces of raisins
11 ounces of walnuts
7 ounces of pretzels
The total weight = 18 + 12 + 11 + 7 = 48 ounces
Weight of the trail mix = 48 ounces
If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.
