Answer:

1. 17.50

2. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1A: First you have to divide the cost by the three pounds to get the price per pound. Now that you have that answer you multiply it by 7 to get the price of 7 pounds.

2A: You can buy 6 pounds because if you multiply 7.5 x 6 you get 45 which you cannot add one more 7.50 so that is your final answer.

Hope this helps you ^^

Y+9÷2=y-3÷4-(y/3)<br>pls help

Ann [662]

Answer:

y = - $\frac{63}{4}$ or - 15.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of operations.

y + $\frac{9}{2}$ = y - $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$ Subtract y from each side.

y - y + $\frac{9}{2}$ = y - y - $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{9}{2}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$ Add $\frac{3}{4}$ to each side

$\frac{9}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{9}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$ Find the common denominator for $\frac{9}{2}$ and $\frac{3}{4}$ , which is 4

$\frac{9}{2}$ * $\frac{2}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{18}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{21}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$ Multiply each side by 3

$\frac{21}{4}$ * 3 = - $\frac{y}{3}$ * 3

$\frac{63}{4}$ = - y Divide each side by -1

y = - $\frac{63}{4}$ = - 15 $\frac{3}{4}$

y = - 15.75

Compare and contrast expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with simplifying numeric expressions. For example, compare

larisa [96]

<span>With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.</span>
