Answer:

Thomas is not correct, x-2 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas made his mistake by multiplying the 1/2 by both (6x-2) and -(2x+1). Thomas should have multiplied the 1/2 by just the (6x-2).

Correct procedure:

1/2 (6x-2)-(2x+1)

(3x-1)-(2x+1)

3x-1-2x-1

x-2

He is not correct, his mistake was multiplying 1/2 to 2x and 1, when you should have multiplied the negative to them.

I came in super late
Allushta [10]

Since we know that 1/4 is equal to 25%, or 0.25 in decimal form, we are able to work with 0.75 in the expression.


We are told to use j as the original price of the jeans, so we can set up the expression:


j-0.25j


to represent the cost of the jeans with the discount.


Then to simplify, we simply take out j as a common factor, and solve what's in the parentheses:


j(1-0.25)


j(0.75) or 0.75j


Using this equation, we can solve for the b part of the question. If the pair of jeans originally costs $60, plug in 60 to where j is in the expression:


0.75j

0.75(60)=45


Therefore, the cost of the jeans after the discount is C) $45.
