Negative 4 or -4 is the answer
I can only give possible combination of the ages. Had the sum of the ages been given, then the 3 specific numbers would have been derived.
We need to do prime factorization of 72.
72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2= 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
3 ÷ 1 = 1
1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
Possible combinations:
1 x 8 x 9 = 72 1 + 8 + 9 = 18
1 x 4 x 18 = 72 1 + 4 + 18 = 23
2 x 4 x 9 = 72 2 + 4 + 9 = 15
3 x 4 x 6 = 72 3 + 4 + 6 = 13
Answer:
11 rides
Step-by-step explanation:
let the total amount be y
and let the number of ride be x
the expression for the situation is y=mx+c
given
total amount=$28
admission fee= $6
cost per ride=$2
we are expected to find x
substitute into the expression we have
28=2x+6
28-6=2x
22=2x
divide boths sides by 2 we have
x=22/2
x=11
the number of rides is 11
Answer:
128
Step-by-step explanation:
5+2=7
5-2=3
2^5=32
2^2=4
32*4=128
Hope this helps:)
