Answer:
Total distance mouse traveled in 3 hours = 
of a mile
The mouse traveled the same distance in each hour. So in order to find the distance covered in 1 hour we have to divide the distance covered in 3 hours by 3. This will give us the distance that the mouse traveled in one hour.
So, the distance traveled in one hour will be = 
of a mile
The error which Matt made was that he divided only the denominator of the expression by 3, this probably was a calculation error.
Correct conclusion will be: Mouse travel 1/24 of a mile each hour
Let us say that:
o = cost of oranges per pound
p = cost of pears per pound
so that:
o = p – 2
Therefore:
10o + 8p = 61
10 (p – 2) + 8p = 61
10p – 20 + 8p = 61
18p = 81
p = 4.5
p = $4.5 per pound
So 3 pounds of pears would cost:
total cost = 3 * 4.5
total cost = $13.5
Answer:
All the expressions other than option E, is equivalent to the expression 18m - 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 6m - 4 + 6m -4 + 6m - 4
or 6m+6m+6m -4 -4 -4
or 18m -12
B. 12m + 6 - 6m -6
or 12m - 6m + 6 - 6
or 6m
C.6(3m - 2)
or 18m - 12
D.3(6m - 4)
or 18m - 12
E. 24n - 4² + 8 -6m
This option can not satisfy the given expression as it contains another variable as n.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
hoh(x) = h(h(x)) = 6 - h(x) = 6 - (6-x) = 6 - 6 + x = x
then
hoh(x) = x
then
hoh(10) = 10
