2. So for this question, you do the distributive property, which is multiplying the term outside of the parenthesis by the terms in the parenthesis. In this case, the outside term is 1/2. 8x * 1/2 = 4x and 1/2 * -16 is -8. That brings us to 4x - 8, which is our answer. Therefore, the correct answer choice is B.

3. Okay. In this problem, we are talking about the sum of 12 and a number. That's 12 + n, because sum means the answer to the addition problem D is out, because we don't do distributive property in this case. The sum of 12 + n is 4n. The expression is 12 + n = 4n. The answer is B.

Answer: 9.6
Explanation: if 500% is 4800 we would need to divide 4800 by 500 to find 1%
4800/500= 9.6

3. Sam and Tim each have savings accounts. Every month they each put in some of their

Setler [38]

Answer:

$y = 30x +50$ --- Sam

$y = 20x +80$ --- Tim

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sam Tim

х --- f(x) --------------- g(x)

1 --- 80 --------------- 100

2 --- 110 --------------- 120

3 --- 140 --------------- 140

4 --- 170 -------------- 160

Required

Determine the y value

y value implies the equation of the table

Calculating the equation of Sam

First, we need to take any corresponding values of x and y

$(x_1,y_1) = (1,80)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (4,170)$

Next, we calculate the slope (m)

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{170 - 80}{4 - 1}$

$m = \frac{90}{3}$

$m = 30$

Next, we calculate the line equation using:

$y - y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y - 80 = 30(x - 1)$

$y - 80 = 30x - 30$

Make y the subject

$y = 30x - 30 + 80$

$y = 30x +50$

Calculating the equation of Tim

First, we need to take any corresponding values of x and y

$(x_1,y_1) = (1,100)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (4,160)$

Next, we calculate the slope (m)

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{160 - 100}{4 - 1}$

$m = \frac{60}{3}$

$m = 20$

Next, we calculate the line equation using:

$y - y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y - 100 = 20(x - 1)$

$y - 100 = 20x - 20$

Make y the subject

$y = 20x - 20+100$

$y = 20x +80$
