There isn't a quotient of the division sign
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dollar = 30 cents tax + 70 cents net income
<u>The ratio of taxes to net income:</u>
Correct choice is D
Consider the example
(3x+5) - (x-10)
When we subtract off the (x-10), we are basically subtracting off x and also subtracting off -10. This is the same as adding on 10 because -(-10) = 10
So we would have these steps
(3x+5)-(x-10)
3x+5-x+10
2x+15
Often students forget to distribute the negative all the way through and would have 3x+5-x-10 as an incorrect step. You need to multiply that -1 through to each term, so that's why the distributive property is used.
We can find out he answer to the question by using the information given.
Since we know that Death Valley is the lower of the two spots, we can assume that we can add the difference in elevation to Death Valley to get the elevation of Mt Whitney.
-86+4,504=4,418
Th elevation of Mt Whitney is 4,418 meters above ground.
Hope this helps!
