Answer:

If mixed numbers are

a b/c and d e/f

You can write them as a sum of a whole and fraction and use the distributive property of multiplication:

a b/c × d e/f =
(a + b/c) × (d + e/f) =
ad + a(e/f) + d(b/c) + (b/c)(e/f)

Number of people can hold in each car = 10

Solution:

Number of cars in the Blazing Bullet = 6

Total number of people can ride at one time = 60

Number of people can hold at one Bullet car = ?

Let n be the number of people in each car can hold.

Now write a equation to find the number of people in each car.

Number of cars × number of people in each car = Total number of people

⇒ 6 × n = 60

⇒ 6n = 60

Now, solving this equation.

⇒ 6n = 60

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.

$$ \Rightarrow\frac{6n}{6} = \frac{60}{6}$

$$ \Rightarrow n=10$

⇒ n = 10

Hence 10 people can hold in each car.

What is the answer to 8(2× - 6) =96

Arisa [49]

Answer:

the answer is 3

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8(2× - 6) =96

multiply 8 on the right side of equation we get

16x -48 = 96

16x= 96-48

16x = 48

divide by 16 on both side we get

simplify

16x / 16 = 48 / 16

x = 3

So that the value of x we get after the equation solved is x = 3

hopefully it will be brainliest for you

thank you !

Answer:

The price per one pound of almonds equal $2.20/0.65 lb

0.65 pounds of almonds cost $2.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify each case

case 1) The price per one pound of almonds equal $2.20/0.65 lb

The statement is true

To find the price per one pound calculate the unit rate

$2.20/0.65 lb=$3.38 per one pound

case 2) 2.2 pounds of almonds cost $0.65

The statement is not True

The correct is 0.65 pounds of almonds cost $2.2

case 3) Each bag of almonds weighs 2.2 pounds

Cannot be determined

In the problem there is no information about how much each bag of almonds weighs

case 4) 0.65 pounds of almonds cost $2.20

The statement is True

The point (0.65,2.20) lie to the line of the the graph

a patio in the shape of a rectangle, is fenced on all sides with 134 feet of fencing. the patio is 5 feet less wide than its lon

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The area of the patio is 1,116 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the area of the patio.

Mathematically, area of patio is;

length * width

Unfortunately we do not have these values. Thus we need to get this from the value of the perimeter of the fencing and the relationship between the width and the length.

Mathematically, the total length of the fencing is the perimeter of the fencing.

Now, we are also told that the patio is 5 feet less wide than it is long.

So if the length is x ft, the width is (x-5) ft

Mathematically;

the perimeter of a rectangle is;

2(l + b)

Writing this in the x terms and equating to the perimeter, we have;

2( x + x -5) = 134

divide through by 2

2x -5 = 67

2x = 67 + 5

2x = 72

x = 72/2

x = 36 ft

Thus since the length is 36 ft, the width would be x -5 = 36 -5 = 31 ft

Done? No!

The question asks to calculate the area. Let’s move these values to the initial equation of the area in the start of the question.

Thus, we have 31 * 36 = 1,116 ft^2
