The carpenter can cut six full sized pieces of board.
Answer:
i think the answer is 7^3
Step-by-step explanation:
when dividing numbers with exponents, you just subtract the smaller exponent from the larger one
pls tell me if im wrong
Step 1: Write out the problem.
Step 1: Write out the problem.
Step 1: Write out the problem.
x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)= 286
Step 2: Take out the parentheses.
x+x+1+x+2+x+3= 286
Step 3: Combine like terms.
4x+6= 286
Step 4: Subtract 6 from both sides.
4x+6 -6= 286 -6
Step 5: Divide 4 on both sides.
4x/4 = 280/4
x=70
Which means the answer is 70, 71, 72, 73
Check Work:
70+71+72+73= 286
So this is correct :)
Answer: the answer is C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Each shirt cost $12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to interpret this question and turn each to an equation, letting shirts represent the letter s and ties represent the letter t.
6 shirts and 3 ties cost $79.50 would be interpreted to 6s+3t=79.5 ,and 3 shirts and 2 ties cost $41 would be interpreted to 3s+2t=41
Hence we have two equations, and we solve them simultaneously.
6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)
3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)
We can either use the substitution method or the elimination method but for the sake of this question, we use the Elimination method.
6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)
3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)
We multiply equation 1 by 2 and we multiply equation 2 by 3, I'm prefer to eliminate the
2(6s+3t=79.5)
12s+6t=159 Equation 3
3(3s+2t=41)
9s+6t=123 Equation 4
We subtract equation 4 from equation 3.
12s+6t=159
9s+6t=123
12s-9s=3s
6t-6t=0
159-123=36
We therefore have
3s=36
Divide both sides by 3
s=36/3
s=12
One shirt cost $12
