    hi mr.p its lauren i dont understand questions 30-36 can you help me?

  27.   By mrpshomepage on Sep 15, 2009 | Reply

    Lauren, use the Commutative, associative, or identity properties for each. For example, problem 32 the 0.3 is missing. Notice the grouping has changed. The associative property changes the grouping… prob 35 the 3.1 is missing. The order of the addends has changed. This shows the use of the commutative property.

  125.   By mrpshomepage on Oct 8, 2009 | Reply

    Lauren,
    use the table beneath problem 17 and fill in 1,2,and 3 for h. For example 5+ 2(1)is 7 and 5+2(2) is 9. This means that for 1 hour the cost is $7 and for 2 hours the cost is $9.

  126.   By mrpshomepage on Oct 8, 2009 | Reply

    Jes, for problem one just draw 3 rectangles for 3X and 5 small squares for +5

  127.   By mrpshomepage on Oct 8, 2009 | Reply

    Cassie, simply substitute 8 for x in each problem then perform the order of operations to simplify it. For example problem 11 would be 2(8)-3 which becomes 16-3 which is 13.
