Okay, let's work this out...
What we know:
-32 stamps in all
- rows (horizontal)
- same # in each
What we "want to know" :
- # of combinations (different)
Problem Solving :
This is actually very easy its just the words than get ya!
1st : we need to figure out the factors of 32...
In other words, we need to figure out _x_=32 and how many different combinations and ways there are!
Note:(* means multiplication)
#1: What are the factors of 32?
32: 1*32 , 2*16 , 4*8
32: 32*1 , 16*2 , 8*4
The factors (not including 1 are 2,4,8,16)
Now, as you can see, there are 4 ways to get 32 as shown first.

That ¦ is 1 way with 16 in 2 rows. Basic multiplication, 16*2=32 or 16+16=32.
But, this is also a way,
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
Now there should be 2 in each row and 16 rows. Again 2*16=32 or 2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2=32
That's two ways so far.
||||||||
||||||||
||||||||
||||||||
Another way which is 4 rows with 8 in each.
4*8=32 or 8+8+8+8=32
But, this is also a way,
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
Now that is 8 rows with 4 in each. 8*4=32 or 4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4=32
That was our fourth way.
Again NOT including 1. If you include 1 then there will be 6 ways but aside from that there are 4 ways.
I hope that helped I worked hard typing this all for you. Any questions just ask!
Answer:
0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the second term (12) with the first term (40), and you'll get 0.3
This is correct because you get the terms in the correct order when multiplying:
(First term: 40. Common ratio: 0.3)
40 x 0.3 = <u>12</u>
<u>12</u> x 0.3<em> </em>= <em>3.6</em>
40, <u>12</u>, <em>3.6</em>
Answer:
7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
If we're seeing how much pizza they both ate, we would add them together.

Find the common denominator

add

7/15 of the pizza was eaten
The constants, -3 and -8, are like terms
The terms 3p and p are like terms
The terms in the expression are p^2, -3, 3p, -8, p, p^3
The expression contains 6 terms.
Like terms have the same variables raised to the same powers.
