To answer the problem, let x be the number of apples Maria picked. By this representation, the number of apples Andre picked is 3x and that Jane picked 6x apples. The sum of all apples picked is 840. The equation that represent the situation is,
 
                                 x + 3x + 6x = 840   ; x = 84 

Andre picked 3x apples. Thus, Andre picked 252 apples.

If 6!+7!+8!=(n)(6!), then the value of n is<br> A) 15<br> B)16<br> C)63<br> D)64<br> E)15!
gladu [14]
6!+7!+8!=(n)(6!)
calculate the individual values first:
6!=720
7!=5040
8!=40320

plug them into the equation:
720+5040+40320=n720
solve for n
5760+40320=n720
46080=n720
divide both sides by 720 to isolate n
46080/720=n720/720
64=n

Answer:

  46 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the length in cm of 1 bap'ai; let k represent the length in cm of 1 bok'ai. Then we have ...

  12p +2k = 100

  10p +10k = 100

Subtracting the second equation from 5 times the first, we get ...

  5(12p +2k) -(10p +10k) = 5(100) -(100)

  50p = 400

  p = 8 . . . . cm

Then the second equation tells us ...

  10(8) +10k = 100

  10k = 20

  k = 2 . . . . cm

Then 5p+3k = 5(8) +3(2) = 46 cm.

The distance 5 bap'ai and 3 bok'ai is 46 cm.
