Hi!


So we need to know how many times 6 goes into 21.


6, 12, 18, 24

6 doesn't go into 21 evenly, so Johnny will have to pick between buying 18 pencils, or 24 pencils.


If Johnny buys 3 packages, 3 students won't have any pencils. Which means Johnny has to buy 4 packages.


Hope this helps! :)

The winner of a race ran the distance in 45s at an average speed of 9.6 m/s. The runner who came in last finished and 48 seconds
RSB [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is speed = 9 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Winner                                 Last runner

time = 45 s                           time = 48 s

speed = 9.6 m/s

Process

1) Calculate the distance they ran using the data of the winner

      speed = distance / time

-Solve for distance

      distance = speed x time

-Substitution

      distance = (9.6)(45)

-Result

      distance = 432 m

2.- Calculate the speed of the last runner

-Substitution

      speed = 432/48

-Result

     speed = 9 m/s

A six-faced die is rolled .
STatiana [176]

Answer:

[A] 2/6

[B] 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A six-faced die is rolled .

To Find:

Find the probability of it landing on a value more than 4

Find the probability of it landing on an even number

Part A:

Knowing that a six-faced die has six number on it (1,2,3,4,5,6)

Thus, the probability of it landing on an value more than 4 is 2/6.

Because 5 and 6 is more than 4

Part B:

1,3,5 = Odd

2,4,6 = Even

Thus, the probability of it landing on an even number is 3/6 Simplify 1/2 . Which also is 50%.

How do you use the limit definition of the derivative to find the derivative of f(x)=1/x?
guapka [62]
Example 1. Let us start with the functionf(x) = x2. We have 




So 




which means f '(a) = 2a.

What about the derivative of f(x) = xn. Similar calculations, using the binomial expansion for (x+y)n (Pascal's Triangle), yield
