The sale price of an item is 0.75 the original price of the item, x. which statement explains why both 34x and 0.75x can find the sale price of the item? a multiplying by 43 is the same as multiplying by 0.8. b the expressions are not equivalent. c the fraction 34 is the same as the decimal 0.25. therefore, 34x can be written as 0.25x. d multiplying by 34 is the same as multiplying by 75%.

D Multiplying by 3/4 is the same as multiplying by 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets look at the fraction 3/4.  Multiply by 25/25

3/4 * 25/25 = 75/100

Now we need to change it to a decimal

75/100 = .75

3/4 and .75 are the same.

75 % means out of 100

75 % = 75/100

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
