-4x - 2

We factor out 4 from expression
1/4 • 4 (-4x -2)

1/4 and 4 cancel out, leaving us with:
1(-4x -2)
-4x - 2

Hope that helps!

We know that we can take 4 out of (-16x + 8) [ we know this because we can divide 16 by 4 ( to get 4 ) and we can divide 8 by 4 ( to get 2 ) ]

we can factor out a 4 then from the parentheses to get 4(-4x + 2), but since we are multiplying by 1/4 we get

1/4(4)(-4x + 2), and since 1/4 * 4 = 1, our final answer is

-4x + 2

Answer:

a) C = 250 + 1.25n

b) 1800

c) 300

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To write the equation for these problems, let's establish the constant, $250, since we are given that $250 is a FIXED cost, meaning no matter how many brochures we print, we will have to pay $250. Then, we have to pay $1.25 for each brochure, so for n amount of brochures, so we have 1.25*n. Putting it together, we have the fixed cost + the cost of producing n brochures, C = 250 + 1.25C

b) The cost of printing 2500 brochures can be found by pluggin number into the equation above. C = 250 + 1.25*2500 = $1800

c) This is the opposite question, since 625 is the final cost, we plug it into the final cost, 625 = 250 + 1.25*n. Solving gives n = 300

x = 375 and y = 6300. Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data we need to find the value of x and y.

First, we will find out the ratio of area and the force.

$\frac{Area}{Force} = \frac{125}{1875} =\frac{150}{2250} =\frac{175}{2625}$ = $\frac{1}{15}$
