All bags: 22 1/2 pounds
First bag: 6 3/8 pounds
Second bag: 3 1/4 pounds
Third bag: ???

First of all we need to find the common denominator for all the fractions.

22 1/2 = 22 4/8
3 1/4 = 3 2/8

Now we add both known bags and them substract the result from overall the weight:

6 3/8 + 3 2/8 = 9 5/8
22 4/8 - 9 5/8 = 12 7/8

So the answer is C.

Answer: C -12 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Total weight: 22 1/2 pounds </em>
  • <em>Bag 1 = 6 3/8 pounds </em>
  • <em>Bag 3 = 3 1/4 pounds </em>

First, we have to sum the weights of bag 1 and 2:

6 3/8 + 3 1/4=

6 3/8 + 3 2/8 = 9 5/8

Finally we subtract the number calculated to the total weight.

22 1/2 - 9 5/8=

22 4/8 -9 5/8=

21 (8/8 +4/8) - 9 5/8 =

21 12/8 - 9 5/8=

12 7/8

3rd bag weight: 12 7/8 pounds

Which model represents the factors of X^2+9x+8
NeX [460]

Answer:

The models have tiles corresponding to x+8 and x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the model that represents factors of

{x}^{2}  + 9x + 8

We split the middle term to get:

{x}^{2}  + 8x + x + 8

We factor by grouping to obtain:

x(x + 8) + 1(x + 8)

We collect common factors again to get:

(x + 8)(x + 1)

The models have tiles corresponding to x+8 and x+1

When placed near a second charge, a 60-μC charge experiences a force of 0.30 N. What is the electric field strength at the locat
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

E=5000N/C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Charge q= 60 \mu C

Force F_=0.30N

Generally the equation for electric field strength is mathematically given as

E=F/q

E=\frac{0.30}{60*10^-^6}

Therefore

E=5000N/C

A point represents a _____.
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Location.

Explanation:

A point has no physical properties of any sort, so 2 would automatically be out of the question. A point on a number line is represented by a dot, and the location of whatever object you're representing as the dot will be where the dot goes. Therefore, the answer is Location.

Hope this helped!
