What is the sum, in lowest terms? 3 1/2 + 2 3/4 + 1 1/4 + 1 1/4 =
A. 7 1/2
B. 7 3/4
C. 8 1/4
D. 8 1/2
E. 8 3/4

1/2 + 3/4 + 11/4 +11/4

=27/4

arrange the equations with like terms in columns.

analyze the coefficients of x or y.

add the equations and solve for the remaining variable.

substitute the value into either equation and solve.

check the solution.

step-by-step explanation:

the number of possible outcomes that do not show a 1 on the first spinner and show the number 4 on the second spinner is 2.

spinner 1 spinner 2

1                     1

1                     2

1                     3

1                     4

2                   1

2                   2

2                   3

2                   4   = not 1, and 4

3                   1

3                   2

3                   3

3                   4 = not 1, and 4

only 2 outcomes have passed the given condition.
