Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

this is going to be equal to 4 times 8 plus 4 times 3. A lot of people's first instinct is just to multiply the 4 times the 8, but no! You have to distribute the 4.

If the numbers 4, 5 and 6 are each used exactly once to replace the letters in the expression A ( B − C ), what is the least pos

Answer:

The least possible result is <em>-10</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the numbers 4, 5 and 6 are to be chosen one of the letters A, B or C.

First of all,

Let A = 4, B = 5 and C = 6

$A(B-C) = 4 \times (5-6) = 4 \times -1 = -4$

Let A = 4, B = 6 and C = 5

$A(B-C) = 4 \times (6-5) = 4 \times 1 = 4$

Let A = 5, B =4 and C = 6

$A(B-C) = 5 \times (4-6) = 5 \times -2 = -10$

Let A = 5, B = 6 and C = 4

$A(B-C) = 4 \times (6-4) = 4 \times 2 = 8$

Let A = 6, B = 4 and C = 5

$A(B-C) = 6 \times (4-5) = 6 \times -1 = -6$

Let A = 6, B = 5 and C = 4

$A(B-C) = 6 \times (6-5) = 6 \times 1 = 6$

Summarizing the above values in the form of a table:

$\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ c c c c}A & B & C & A(B-C)\\ 4 & 5 & 6 & -4\\ 4 & 6 & 5 & 4\\ 5 & 4 & 6 & -10\\ 5 & 6 & 4 & 10\\ 6 & 4 & 5 & -6\\ 6 & 5 & 4 & 6\end{tabular}\end{center}$

So, the least possible result is <em>-10</em>.

What does the coefficient do to the variable?

Lelechka [254]

Answer: A number used to multiply a variable. An example: 6x means 6 times x, and "x" is a variable, so 6 is a coefficient.

A blueberry plant produces about 26 blueberries per day. If the farmer picked 472 blueberries, how many days did the plants prod

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

About 18 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that a blueberry plant produces about 26 blueberries per day. So, our answer will be somewhat of an estimate for the amount of days the plants produced blueberries based on the number picked. In order to solve for the number of days, we can set up equivalent ratios (fractions):

$\frac{blueberries}{day}=\frac{26}{1}=\frac{472}{d}$ where 'd' = number of days.
