Rachel’s friend yassi has to write 3(b + s) pages for reports. use properties of operations to determine whether this expression is equivalent to the expression for the number of pages rachel has to write.

3b+3s

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part of this question is:

Rachel needs to write 3 book reports with b pages and 3 science reports with s pages during the school year. How do you write an algebraic expression for the total number of pages Rachel will need to write?

This means Rachel has to write 3b+3s pages

Now, if Yassi has to write 3(b + s) pages, we can use the distributive property and the result is:

3(b + s)=3b+3s

Which is the same number of pages Rachel has to write.

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
