The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
p = total number of paperclips
x = paper clips added by carmen.
The equation that models this situation is:
p = x + 37
Answer:
An equation that models the total number of paperclips in the box is:
p = x + 37
Answer:
0.23
Step-by-step explanation:
2.3% = 0.023
So 0.23*100=23% therefore larger than 2.3%

Answer: 29 cans.
Step-by-step explanation:
20 can survive 24 days with 15 cans.
If X is the number of days that a man can survive with one can of rations.
so X is in the units can/day
then we have that:
24/15*X = 20
X = 20*15/24 = 12.5
This means that a man can live 12.5 days with a can of food.
then, for 16 men and 36 days we have:
(36/C)*12.5 = 16
C = (36/16)*12.5 = 28.1215
And we can not have a 0.1215 of a can, so we should round it up to 29 cans.
Answer:
No there cannot be.
Step-by-step explanation:
In explaining this question, I would like us to take into account who the barber is,
" the barber is the one who shaves all those, and those only, who do not shave themselves".
This barber cannot be in existence because who would shave him? If he should shave himself then there is a violation of the rule which says he shaves only those who do not shave themselves. If he shaves himself then he ceases to be a barber. And if he does not shave himself then he happens to be under those who must be shaved by the barber, because of what the rule says. But then he is the barber.
This lead us to a contradiction.
Neither is possible so there is no such barber.
Answer:
0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Find the difference in y
7 - 3 = 4
→ Find the difference in x
9 - 1 = 8
→ Divide the results
4 ÷ 8 = 0.5
