Answer:
Option 4 is the correct option.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the expression 2x(x+2)(x-3)
Multiplying the terms with each other we get,

Option 4 is the correct option.
The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable:
x: number of years
y: total salary
We have then:
For first company:
y = 1500x + 31000
For second company:
y = 2000x + 28500
Equaling both equations we have:
1500x + 31000 = 2000x + 28500
Clearing x:
2000x - 1500x = 31000 - 28500
500x = 2500
x = 2500/500
x = 5
Answer:
It will take for the salaries to be the same about:
x = 5 years
Answer:
It can be written as 825/1000. You can simplify this to get the simplest form which would be 33/40. All decimals are out of one, they are a part. When you first get a decimal, put the numbers such as 825 on top. The last number is in the thousandths place, so it is out of 1000. 1000 is your denominator. Your fraction is then 825/1000. From here you can simplify if possible.

There are many ways to solve number 5 as it is just an reduce/enlargement of equidistant fractions
The first method that came up to my mind is just dividing denominators.
For A) you can do 72 divided by 18 which would give you 4. Then you can divide the given numerator with the answer you got from dividing the denominators. This would be 8 divided by 4 which would give you two. This means that 2/18 is equal to 8/72. You can check by simplifying the fraction. Both 2/18 and 8/72 equal 9 when simplified, therefore correct.
You can use this method for b, either use a calculator because of the decimals or just remove the decimals and replace them later. Make sure when you use this method, you are always dividing the bigger number. So in B you would do 40.3 divided by 12.4
