Write the algebraic expression described.
-To convert from meters to centimeters, we multiply by 100. For example, the number of centimeters in 3 meters is 100 · 3 = 300. If one piece of string has a length of x - 9 meters, and another piece of
String has a length of 8x + 7 centimeters, express their total length in centimeters as an algebraic
Expression.
A) (900x - 200) cm
B) (9x - 2) cm
C) (108x - 893) cm
D) (801x + 691) cm

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert the first string's length from meters to centimeters, multiply (x - 9) by 100, resulting in 100(x - 9) = 100x - 900. Add this to the second string's length, 8x + 7, to get the total length: (100x - 900) + (8x + 7) = 108x - 893 cm.
