The answer is 16x. hope this helps
Answer:
24 candies originally
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the 4 to how many you had left, then think about that number, 16, and what goes into 16 evenly 2 times? 8 and originally she gave away 1/3 of the box and if you were to add another 8 to the box it would be 24 divided by 1/3, -,-4,= 12.
First lets convert feet to miles: if 1 mi = 5280 feet then 7200 feet / 5280 feet = 1.364 miles. Now we need to see how much degrees does the boiling point for water decreases: if 1 mile = 5 degrees Celsius, then 0.364 miles correspond to 0.364*5=1.82 degrees Celsius. So now we add the two values: 5+1.82 = 6.82 degrees Celsius. Now we find the decrease in the boiling point of water: 100-6.82 = 93.18 degrees Celsius. So at 7200 feet above sea level, in Santa Fe, the water boils at 93.18 degrees Celsius.
