Find the sum. 4(2.5g- 4)+ 3(1.2g- 2) , and explain how you did this if you can, i'm not understanding how to do it. : (

You are gonna use the distributive property.

4(2.5g - 4) + 3(1.2g - 2)

So you are going to multiply 4 with everything inside the first set of parenthesis and your gonna multiply 3 with everything insides the second set of parenthesis.

4 x 2.5g - 4 x 4 + 3 x 1.2g - 3 x 2

10g - 16 + 3.6g - 6

You wanna combine like terms:

10 - 3.6g + 16 - 6

6.4g + 10

You answer is 6.4g + 10.

Hope this Helps!!

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

explanation

the graph has a slope of 1/3 because each time you move up 1, you go to the right 3. so, slope = rise/run = 1/3. we can cross choice a off the list since we want a slope of 3, rather than 1/3.

the first table shown has a slope of -3. this is because the rise is -6 and the run is 2, so slope = rise/run = -6/2 = -3. note how x increases by 2 each time (run) and y drops by 6 each time (rise). choice b can be eliminated.

the second table has a slope of 3. each time x goes up by 1, the y values increase by 3. slope = rise/run = 3/1 = 3. alternatively you can use the slope formula to prove that the slope is 3 here. use any two rows of values to generate the two points. choice c is one of the answers

the third table also has a slope of 3. let's use the slope formula to prove as such. i'm going to use the first two rows of the table. so i'll use the two points (2,1) and (5,10)

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (10-1)/(5-2)

m = 9/3

m = 3 so we get a slope of 3

choice d is the other answer

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.
