Answer:
= 8p
Step-by-step explanation:
Steps
2p · 4
Remove parentheses: (a) = a
= 2p · 4
Multiply the numbers: 2 · 4 = 8
= 8p
Answer:
In terms of P, the price of the sweater after the discount is 0.72P.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the price P would represent 100% and the price was discounted by 10%, you can calculate 10% of 100% and subtract that amount, which would be:
100*10%=10
100-10=90%
This means that the price paid would be 90% of P. Then, the statement says that the price was discounted by another 20%. So, you have to calculate 20% of the price and subtract that amount from the price:
90*20%=18
90-18=72%
According to this, this means that in terms of P, the price of the sweater after the discount is 0.72P.
Let’s condense the original expression and see if that’s one of the answers
-1/2(-3/2 x + 6x + 1) - 3x
First we distribute the -1/2
((-1/2)(-3/2 x) + (-1/2)(6x) + (-1/2)(1)) -3x
3/4x - 3x - 1/2 -3x
Combine like terms
(3/4 x - 3x - 3x) -1/2
-21/4 x - 1/2
We could make this a mixed number
-5 1/4 x - 1/2
(Mixed number: 5 times 4 plus one gets the numerator)
So the answer is D
