Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

There are 7.25 pounds in 116 ounces.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  1 pound equals 16 ounces.

We have to calculate the number of pounds in 116 ounces.

UNITARY METHOD is a method used to calculate the value of a single unit and then multiply it with the desired unit.

Since, given 16 ounces makes 1 pound

So, 1 ounces makes \frac{1}{16} pounds

We have to find the number of pounds in 116 ounces.

So, 116 ounces makes \frac{1}{16}\times 116 pounds

Simplify, \frac{1}{16}\times 116=7.25

Thus, There are 7.25 pounds in 116 ounces.

What is the value of h in the equation 8h = 60
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

h= 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8h=60

One solution was found :

                  h = 15/2 = 7.500

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    8*h-(60)=0

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  8h - 60  =   4 • (2h - 15)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

2.1      Solve :    4   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    2h-15 = 0

Add  15  to both sides of the equation :

                     2h = 15

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

                    h = 15/2 = 7.500

One solution was found :

                  h = 15/2 = 7.500

X^2-3=5x simplify this
Alex Ar [27]
To simplify x^2-3 =5x

You would first subtract 5x from both sides

X^3-5x-3

Next you would plug this into the quadratic equation:

X=5+/- the square root of: -5^2 -4(1)(-3)/2(1)

Then simplify,
5+/- the squareroot of 24 + 12 / 2

5+/- The squareroot of 36 /2

5+/- 6 / 2

Then solve if it’s an addition or subtract

5+6/2

X=11/2 or 5 1/2

5-6/2

X= -1/2

The answer is x=-1/2 or x=11/2

Hope this helps
