You didnt include the (presumably) multiple choice answers. My guess is that the answer would be along the lines of: 20 - (P times .40)
Answer:
9 + 10 = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
9 + 10 = 21
Factor out 9 and 10
9 = 3 · 3 10 = 2 · 5
Next multiply 3 by 2
3 × 2 = 6
Then multiply 3 by 5
3 · 5 = 15
Finally add the products
15 + 6 = 21
Answer:
b. The variable will always be the letter x (false)
Step-by-step explanation:
Variables can be any letter or symbol. The letter x is often used as a variable, but that is not the only choice. Many formulas, for example, make use of variables that have letters reminding you what they stand for.
For example, the formula ...
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h
uses the variables A, b1, b2, and h to represent area, base-1, base-2, and height, respectively. The letter x is not used at all.
You set it up like this.
It says "the difference", so you put a minus sign: -
It says that the minuend, or the part being taken away from is a quantity equal to the product of 4 and "some number" (we'll use x), so now you have: (4 * x) -
Next, it says the subtrahend, or part being removed, is the square of "the number", meaning we use the "some number", x, from before, so now you have: (4 * x) - x^2
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 30 by 2.5, which is 12. Therefore, it would be 12 packages.
