Answer:
He served 3/6 of the lemon cake and 2/6 of the marble cake. He served 1 more piece of the lemon cake than marble cake.
Step-by-step explanation:
A third of 6 is 2 and half of six is 3.
An answer to this would be y=- 1 over 3 x
The expression x-4 will come out to be a negative integer. That means X <em>has to be </em>something that when 4 is taken away from it, the answer is still negative.
Let's try 5.
5-4 is 1. Is 1 negative? No, so that doesn't work.
4-4 is 0. 0 isn't negative either, so that doesn't work.
3-4 is -1. Is -1 negative? YES! Let's try it for 2 as well, just to be safe.
2-4 is -2. Still negative.
X can be anything less than 4.
Answer: 3 copies of 5 tenths = 3*0.5 = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, if we have:
"3 copies of a number B"
This is written as:
3*B
And we have that the number B is "5 tenths"
Now, a tenth is the first digit after the decimal point.
Then 5 tenths = 5*0.1 = 0.5
B = 0.5
3 copies of 5 tenths = 3*0.5 = 1.5
