A: 2 x p < ---
B: 2 ÷ p

Your first and third answers are right.
The second question doesn't have a right answer shown. Maybe that's because C and D are identical.
Yeah I noticed that, but I didn't pick either because they were the same. Thank you(:
I like C for #2.
It's the same as 9.5/3 = x/7
Nope - my bad. B,C,D are all the same
You want
9.5/3 = x/7
but B,C,D are all 9.5/3 = 7/x
To find the change in temperature, you need to subtract the initial temperature from the final temperature. In this case, the initial temperature was 48.2°, and the final temperature was 35.7°.
So, the change in temperature is 35.7° - 48.2° = -12.5°.
Therefore, the answer is D: 12.5°.
To find the cost of 7 gallons of ice cream, you can use a proportion. The proportion should relate the number of gallons to the cost.
Since Carlos bought 3 gallons of ice cream for $9.50, the proportion can be set up as 3/9.5 = x/7, where x represents the cost of 7 gallons.
So, the answer is A: 3/7 = x/9.5.
To find the total amount of money the concession stand earns for selling p pizzas, you can multiply the number of pizzas by the amount earned per pizza.
Since the concession stand earns $2 for each whole pizza it sells, the expression that describes the total amount of money earned is 2 x p.
So, the answer is A: 2 x p.
