We’ll use x to represent the mystery number.

“Sixteen less than” means subtraction, so we have 16 -

“Less than a number” simply means 16 - x

“Equals - 19” sets 16 - x equal to -19. In other words, 16 - x = -19

To solve, we subtract 16 to get x alone:

-x = -35

Divide the entire equation by -1 to make x positive:

-1(-x = -35) leaves us with x = 35

The number is -3 because -3 minus 16 equals -19.

WHAT IS THE ANSWER FOR 12 1/3 + 8 3/4 +17 2/8 +23 2/3=
gulaghasi [49]
12  \dfrac{1}{3}  + 8  \dfrac{3}{4}  +17  \dfrac{2}{8}  +23  \dfrac{2}{3}

Simplify
= 12  \dfrac{1}{3}  + 8  \dfrac{3}{4}  +17  \dfrac{1}{4}  +23  \dfrac{2}{3}

Change the denominators to be the same
= 12  \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4}  + 8  \dfrac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3}  +17  \dfrac{1 \times 3 }{4 \times 3}  +23  \dfrac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4}

= 12  \dfrac{4}{12}  + 8  \dfrac{9}{12}  +17  \dfrac{3 }{12}  +23  \dfrac{8}{12}

Combine into single fraction
= 60  \dfrac{24}{12}

= 62

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

127.253 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume, we start by getting the area of the square base

Mathematically, that will be 4.9^2 m^2

To complete the volume, we multiply the area of the base by the height

= 4.9^2 * 5.3 = 127.253 m^3
