Answer: Choice B
Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number is more than negative four and five tenths.
======================================================
Explanation:
2.4 = 2 + 0.4
2.4 = 2 and 4/10
2.4 = 2 and 4 tenths
2.4 = two and four tenths
-------------------
Through similar reasoning,
6.2 = six and two tenths
And also,
-4.5 = negative four and five tenths
---------------------
Notice how 6.2 - x translates into "difference of six and two tenths and a number"
We then multiply that by 2.4, aka two and four tenths.
So that's how we get the phrasing "Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number"
All of this is greater than -4.5 aka negative four and five tenths.
This points us to Choice B as the final answer.
Let's assign variables for the unknowns. Let x be the amount of total sales while x is the amount of net sales. It is called net sales because a percentage is still deducted from it. The equation will be written as:
Net Sale = Total Sales - 0.25*Total Sales
y = x - 0.25x
y = 0.75x
Trere are two correct answers.That are (-1,-7) and (-6,-14)
