Simplify (1/4 ad^3)^2

Dima020 [189]

That "ad^3" bothers me; I'm not sure what you mean here.

I'm going to assume that you have (1/4*a*d^3)^2.

If that's the case, then you have (1/4)^2 * a^2 * d^6 = (1/16)*a^2*d^6.

If this is not what you were hoping for, double check to ensure that you have copied down this problem exactly as it was presented.

#5 Antonio and Abby had the same nimber of paperclips. After Antonio gave 30 paperclips to Abby, Abby had twice as many papercli

Kay [80]

Answer:

#5: 180 paperclips in total.

#6: 126 stamps in total.

#7: Elena should give Lucy 15 colored pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation solves each question by setting a single unknown, $x$ .

<h3>#5</h3>

Let $x$ the initial number of paperclips of Antonio. That should also be the number of Abby's paperclips.

Initially:

Antonio: $x$ paperclips;
Abby: $x$ paperclips.

Antonio gives $30$ paperclips to Abby. After that,

Antonio: $(x - 30)$ paperclips;
Abby: $x + 30$ paperclips.

Abby now possess twice as many paperclips as Antonio does. In other words,

$2(x - 30) = x + 30$ .

By the distributive property:

$2x - 60 = x + 30$ .

Substract $x - 60$ from both sides

$x = 30 - (-60) = 90$ .

Both Antonio and Abby initially possess 90 paperclips. That's 180 in total.

<h3>#6</h3>

Similarly, let $x$ be the number of Emily's stamps. That should be the same as the number of Jasmine's stamps.

Initially:

Emily: $x$ stamps;
Jasmine: $x$ stamps.

After Emily gives $42$ stamps to Jasmine:

Emily: $x-42$ stamps;
Jasmine: $x+42$ stamps.

Jasmine now possesses twice as many stamps as Emily does. In other words,

$2(x-42) = x+42$ .

$x = 42 + 2\times 42 = 126$ .

Jasmine used to possess 126 stamps. Now she possesses $126 + 42 = 168$ stamps after receiving $42$ stamps from Emily.

<h3>#7</h3>

Let the number of pencils that Elena needs to give to Lucy be $x$ .

Initially:

Elena: 60 pencils;
Lucy: 26 pencils.

After Elena gives $x$ pencils to Lucy:

Elena: $60 - x$ pencils;
Lucy: $26 + x$ pencils.

Elena should now possess four more pencils than Lucy does. In other words,

$\underbrace{60 - x}_{\text{Elena's}} = \underbrace{(26 + x)}_{\text{Lucy's}} +4$ .

$2x = 30$ .

$x = 15$ .
