The leas amount of large plates that would have to be purchased is 24

So the person would buy 2 packs of large plates and 3 packs of small plates.


How to: the way to find this out, is to find the first multiplication of 8 that is a number equally divided by 12. So you go:
8x1 = 8 (less than 12, so not enough)
8x2 = 16 (more than 12, but still not enough to divide equally)
8x3 = 24 (bingo!)

Hope it helps.

Amoeba dapat membelah diri menjadi 2 setiap 20 menit . Jika mula mula terdapat 15 amoeba maka setelah dua jam banyaknya amoeba a
leva [86]
<span>Amoeba splits 3 times an hour. If Amoeba can split into two every 20 mins then if you divide 60 mins (which would be an hour) by 20 mins (the time they split) you would find that Amoeba can split 3 times in an hour. The question asks how many times it can split in two hours. To find this you have to multiply the 3 times 2. This means that a single Amoeba can split 6 times in two hours. There are 15 Amoeba which means if you take 15 Amoeba time 6 in two hours and 90 would be your answer. There will be 90 Amoeba after the two hours.</span>

Can anyone help!<br> WITH STEPS!
MissTica

Answer:

When we have something like:

\sqrt[n]{x}

It is called the n-th root of x.

Where x is called the radicand, and n is called the index.

Then the term:

\sqrt[4]{16}

is called the fourth root of 16.

And in this case, we can see that the index is 4, and the radicand is 16.

At the end, we have the question: what is the 4th root of 16?

this is:

\sqrt[4]{16} = \sqrt[4]{4*4}  = \sqrt[4]{2*2*2*2} = 2

The 4th root of 16 is equal to 2.

Which point is not in the solution set of 3x+2y&lt;12? A (1,4) B (2,3) C (3,1) D(4,-1)
arlik [135]
Test each one out! Coordinates are written in (x, y) so just substitute each one

A) 3(1)+2(4) = 11
B) 3(2)+2(3) = 12
C) 3(3)+2(1) = 11
D) 3(4)+2(-1) = 10

Out of all these answers B has a value less than 12 so the answer is:

B (2,3)
