Which two statements are true? a. 2/7 times 3/8 < 3/8 because 2/7 < 1b. 2/7 times 3/8 < 3/8 because 2/7 > 1c. 2/7 times 3/8< 2/7 because 3/8 < 1d. 2/7 times 3/8 < 2/7 because 3/8< 1e. 2/7 times 3/8 > 2/7 because 3/8 < 1

When we multiply a number with a number less than 1 then the result will always smaller than the original number.

For example: 4* 0.5 =2

Here 0.5 is less than 1. So, when we will multiply 0.5 with 4 then we got the result 2 which is smaller than 4.

If denominator is bigger than the numerator then that number will be less than 1.

So, 2/7 is less than 1 because 7 is more than 2.

Similarly 3/8 is also less than 1.

So, Choice B is not correct as it says 2/7>1.

Let's check the other choices now.

A. 2/7 times 3/8 < 3/8 because 2/7 < 1

Multiply the numerators and denominators.

0.1<0.375

Above inequality satisfy.

So, A is the correct choice.

C. 2/7 times 3/8< 2/7 because 3/8 < 1

0.1<0.286

This inequality also satisfy. So, C is also correct.

step-by-step explanation:

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

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
