<h3>Answer:  14.85 + c = 20</h3>

============================================================

Reason:

To compute the change, we subtract the amount William gives the cashier (the $20) and the price of the book ($14.85)

The change c is

c = 20-14.85

To rearrange this equation, we can add 14.85 to both sides to end up with 14.85 + c = 20

In other words, solving that equation in bold leads to c = 20-14.85 = 5.15 which is the change William is given.

----------------

Extra info (optional section)

If the cashier wanted to mentally figure out the change in his/her head, then notice the jump from 85 cents to 100 cents is 15 cents. That means we go from 14.85 to 15.00

Then the jump from $15 to $20 is an extra 5 dollars. Overall, the total change given back to William is 0.15+5 = 5.15 dollars.

From the image attached, Randy started reading at 4:10 and Randy finished reading at 4:55.

We therefore need to subtract:

4:55 - 4:10 = 45 minutes

So, Randy is said to read  for 45 minutes.

It is a period via which an action, process, etc. is alive or continues such as duration. One can tell the time by counting the minutes and seconds.

Jacob attempted the third problem above but when checking his work realized he made a mistake. Identify what Jacob’s mistake was
Sloan [31]

Answer:

When solving, Jacob did not distribute properly.

Explanation:

Let's talk about 5(x + 2). The correct distribution would be 5x + 10. Jacob distributed 5 into x correctly and got 5x, however he did not distribute the 5 into 2 properly. It should have been 10, however it stayed as 2.

Jacob should be more careful when distributing, and make sure to distribute into EVERY term inside the parentheses.
