Miguel’s savings account balance changed by -$48 over a year because a banking fee was withdrawn every month. He wants to find the monthly change to his account.

-48 ÷ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

account balance changed over a year = -$48

In a year, there are 12 months. Above statement can also be written as

account balance changed in 12 months = -$48

we have to find monthly change, so we divide LHS and RHS by 12

account balance changed in 12 /12 months = -$48/12

Thus, account balance changed in 1 months = -$48/12

which is represented  option 4 i.e -48 ÷ 12

he used the algebra tiles correctly.

step-by-step explanation:

given : 3x(2x-1)

solution :

since he used algebra tiles .

armando's solution is the same in the solution shown in figure

as he distributed 2x into x and x and wrote them vertically

and also write   -1 vertically

and 3x into x and x and x and wrote it horizontally

performing the multiplication in the algebra tiles we get

and solving the given expression :

3x(2x-1)

since solving the expression using tiles   and solving the expression algebraically we get the same answer

thus   we can choose the first statement as the answer to this problem which is "he used the algebra tiles correctly".
