The pot can hold 1/3 more "of the way." Then 1/3 of 5 1/2 quarts is:
(1/3)(11/2) = 11/6 quarts. The pot can hold 11/6 quarts total.
Answer:
0.87
Step-by-step explanation:
0.8/4=0.2
0.7-0.81=-0.11
3*-0.11=-0.33
1.2+-0.33=0.87
Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute for x and y in the given equation
x=0
y=-6
let the unknown number be 'b'
y = -4x + b
-6 = 4*0 + b
b = -6
For numbers 9 and 10, we are dealing with negative exponents.
The rule of exponents states that any quantity b, taken to the power -n, equals the reciprocal of b, taken to the nth power.
Example: x⁻³ = 1 / x³
Number 9: ( 3 / y² ) ⁻³
Step 1: take the reciprocal:
( 3 / y² ) ⁻³ = ( y² / 3 ) ³
Step 2: distribute the exponent
( y² / 3 ) ³ = y⁶ / 27
Try to do number 10 on your own. If you have any questions, comment.
