Answer:
$7.20
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we would have to find out how much to subtract from $62.
We need to multiply 90% and 62 or 0.9 x 62
When we finish this equation we get 54.8, which is what we need to subtract from 62 to see what 90% off is.
62 - 54.8 = 7.2, so therefore our answer is $7.20
Answer: C 75
Step-by-step explanation: time to distance is ratio 4:5 = 60:X
In 1min He walks 5/4
in 60mins He walks 5/4 ×60
You should try both points
put x=5/2 and y=3
5-2=3
the first one is on the graph
put x=3/2 and y=20
3-40/3≠3
the second one is not on the graph
Answer:
SU = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Point T is on line segment SU. So,
SU = ST + TU
Putting all the values, we get :
SU = 12 + 3
SU = 15
Hence, the length of SU is 15 units.

Answer:
(a) 1. Distributive property 2. Combine like terms 3. Addition property of equality 4. Division property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
Replacement of -1/2(8x +2) by -4x -1 is use of the <em>distributive property</em>, eliminating choices B and D.
In step 3, addition of 1 to both sides of the equation is use of the <em>addition property of equality</em>, eliminating choice C. This leaves only choice A.

<em>Additional comment</em>
This problem makes a distinction between the addition property of equality and the subtraction property of equality. They are essentially the same property, since addition of +1 is the same as subtraction of -1. The result shown in Step 3 could be from addition of +1 to both sides of the equation, or it could be from subtraction of -1 from both sides of the equation.
In general, you want to add the opposite of the number you don't want. Here, that number is -1, so we add +1. Of course, adding an opposite is the same as subtracting.
In short, you can argue both choices A and C have correct justifications. The only reason to prefer choice A is that we usually think of adding positive numbers as <em>addition</em>, and adding negative numbers as <em>subtraction</em>.
