Answer:

2n -5 is the expression which represents the number of CDs Marcus has

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement: Jim has a number (n) of CDs in his collection.

⇒ Jim has a number of CDs in his collection = n

Also, it is given that Marcus has 5 less than 2 times the number of CDs Jim has.

"2 times the number of CDs Jim has" means 2n

"5 less than 2 times the number of CDs Jim has" means 2n -5

then;

Marcus has the number of CDs = 2n -5

Therefore, the expression which represents the number of CDs Marcus has ; 2n -5

Shane has 1/2 pound of cheese to make 4 sandwiches. He wants to use the same amount of cheese in each sandwich. What fraction of
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The fraction of one pound of cheese to be used in each sandwich is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have a question that requires the method of dealing with the division of fractions.

To divide a fraction by a whole number, we multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number as follows;

\frac{x}{y} \div z =\frac{x}{y\times z}

Quantity of cheese Shane has = 1/2 pound

Number of sandwiches to be made = 4

Amount of cheese per sandwich = 1/2÷4 = 1/8.
