Answer:

1.5 grams of protein.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that represents the relationship between protein and fat is as follows :

4p + 9f = 60 ....(1)

We need to find the grams of protein are there if there are 6 grams of fat in the snack.

Put f = 6 in the above equation (1).

4p + 9(6)= 60

4p + 54 = 60

Subtract 54 to the both sides,

4p + 54-54 = 60-54

4p = 6

⇒ p = 1.5 grams

It means the snack contains 1.5 grams of protein.

How do I simplify the n^-6*n^3 topic "Negative and Zero Exponents"
Alchen [17]
Since you’re multiplying n^-6 and n^3, you can add the exponents: -6+3 = -3

n^-6 * n^3 = n^-3

If you need to finish without having a negative exponent in your answer, then remember a negative exponent means that factor is on the wrong side of the fraction.

n^-3 = n^-3 / 1 = 1/n^3

when the factor moves to the other side of the fraction, the side of the exponent changes.

Answer: It would take 9 hours for 4 painters to paint 720 feet of fence.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Calculate the time needed to paint the 720 ft fence with 2 painters.

    a.) Divide 720 by 280 to get how many times greater 720 is than 280.

         720 / 280 ≈ 2.57

    b.) Multiply the time needed to paint the 280 ft fence with 2 painters by 2.57.

         7 * 2.57 ≈ 18

2.) Calculate the time needed to paint the 720 ft fence with 4 painters.

   a.) Assuming that each painter paints the same amount of fence, divide the time in half, as 4 painters is double the original amount, so it would take half of the time.

       18 / 2 = 9
