Answer: 15%
Reason: I wrote it down hopes it helps!!
Step-by-step explanation:
2x(5x-2)
= 2x*5x - 2x*2 (Distributive property)
= 10x^2 - 4x
I got -0.75. But is that a 3 and 1/2 or just 3?
Answer:
For the problem we have:
Sam had 14 people at the party.
The party lasted for 4 hours.
He paid $2 for each person's skate rental and 3 for each person's entry ticket.
Suppose we want to know how much Sam spent on the party.
But we do not know if the $2 of the skate rental are per hour or per two hours, or in total, for example, if the amount is per hour, then the total amount for each skate is $2*4 = $8, so in the case that the rental depends on the time, we can not solve this problem because we do not have enough information.
If the $2 are fixed (do not depend on the time that the party lasted) then the fact that the party lasted for 4 hours does not matter.
We can calculate as 14 persons* ($2 + $3) each = 14*$5 = $70, then you can see that in this case the 4 hours data is not necessary
