The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
They had no placeholding zero.
Explanation:
Our numbering system is one of few known to have a numeral for zero. Mayans did; however, theirs never traveled the world. Babylonians were thought to have a mark for nothing, but it was more for punctuation than numerals. Neither the Romans nor the Egyptians had a number for 0 either.
Zero is key to our system of numbering, as it helps us hold place as well as representing nothing. Without it, it is easier to represent problems in words.
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 30%/3 is 10%, 6 is 10% of the total number of garden beds, since 18/3 is 6.
And 10% times 10 is 100%, or all of it, so 60 is the total amount of garden beds, since 6 times 10 is 60.
Order them from smallest to largest:
21, 24, 25, 26, 26, 31
mean: 25.5
add all the numbers up and divide them by 6.
median: 25.5
the number in between 25 & 26.
mode: 26
there are two 26’s in the pattern.
range: 21-31
Answer:
$6.50
Step-by-step explanation:
SET UP A SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS WHERE SANDWHICHES IS REPRESENTED BY S AND DRINKS BY D:
6S+4D = 53
4S+6D=47
ADD THEM TOGETHER
10S+10D=100
SOLVE FOR D
10D = 100 - 10S
D = 10-S
SUBSTITUTE THAT VALUE INTO ONE OF THE ORIGINAL EQUATIONS
4S + 6(10-S) = 47
4S + 60 - 6S = 47
COMBINE LIKE TERMS
-2S + 60 = 47
SUBTRACT 60 FROM BOTH SIDES
-2S = -13
DIVIDE BY -2
S = 13/2
S = $6.50
