Janes weight = x
Twelve pounds less than twice janes weight is 270 pounds
12 less than 2x is 270 

2x -12 = 270   (add 12 to each side)
2x = 270 + 12
2x = 282   (divide 2 from each side)
x = 282/2
x = 141

The answer is 141 pounds

a

10.95x + 2.50, but for eight books so 10.95 x 8 + 2.50 = 90.10

b

12.50x + 4.50, but for six books so 12.50 x 6 + 4.50 = 79.50

c

To do this, we can set them both equal to each other and if x is a whole number of books, then they do pay the same amount. If x is a decimal, then they don't pay the same amount.

10.95x + 2.50 = 12.50x + 4.50

2.50 - 4.50 = 12.50x - 10.95x

-2 = 1.55x

This can never be a whole number, so therefore members and non-members can never pay the same amount for an order of x books.

Solve for 3/4u = 12<br> .<br> Simplify your answer as much as possible.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

u = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{3}{4} u = 12

Multiply both sides by 4 to eliminate the fraction

3u = 48 ( divide both sides by 3 )

u = 16

Q # # 12 find the volume of the cylinder to the nearest cubic foot Use a calculator
Ronch [10]
The diagram in the question is a cylinder.
;The volume of a cylinder is given by;

Volume = πr²h
;Where π=3.14
             r⇒radius of the base of the cylinder and
             h ⇒ height of the cylinder.

∴Volume = 3.14×5²×3
               =235.5 ft³

To the nearest cubic = 236 ft³

Parker reviews his homework before he turns it in. When he sees the equation 1.02 divided by 0.6= 0.17, he knows it is wrong. He
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The result of the division of a number by a fraction is larger than the fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,we note that value Parker divided by 0.6. =1.02

Written down result of the division = 1.02/0.6 = 0.17

However, since the numerator is 1.02, then the result of dividing it by a fraction should yield a higher number instead of 0.17

Therefore we check as follows

1.02/0.6 = 1.7

The error is apparently due to dividing 1.02 by 6 rather than 0.6
