Answer:

174 75/142

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

1 coin = Total Mass / number of coins

Givens

Total mass 24783 Ounces (That's awfully heavy. You sure you don't mean grams?)

142 coins

Solution

1 coin = 24783 / 142

1 coin = 174.528169

This is multiple choice so you only have to try one thing. What is 75/142? It turns out that the result is 75/142

75/142 = 0.528169

Another way to do it is to figure out what 174 in whole numbers would weigh:

174 * 142 = 24708

What number is left over? 24783 - 24708 = 75

So the fractional part is 75/142

Which of the following points IS a solution to the system: y > - 3x + 4 / y > 2x / - y < 7 Selected answer is not corre
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Solution : Third Option

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step here is to make all the signs uniform. As you can see the third inequality has a less than sign, which we can change to a greater than sign by dividing negative one on either side, making the inequality y > - 7.

\begin{bmatrix}y>-3x+4\\ y>2x\\ y>-7\end{bmatrix}

Now take a look at the third option. Of course the y - coordinate, 3, is greater than - 7, so it meets the third requirement ( y > - 7 ). At the same time 3 > 1( 2 ) > 2, and hence it meets the second requirement as well. 3 > - 3( 1 ) + 4 > - 3 + 4 > 1, meeting the first requirement.

Therefore, the third option is a solution to the system.

Use the number line to show and explain why 4/10 ÷ 2 and 4/10 × 1/2 both equal 2/10
Vesna [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide by a number, you basically are multiplying by the reciprocal

The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2

4/10 ÷ 2 = 4/10 × 1/2 = 2/10

4/10 × 1/2 = 2/10

Using a number line,

Start at 4/10 and move down by 2 until you reach 0

Start at 4/10 and move up by 1/2 from 0 until you reach 4/10

(Count the number of humps)

Both will be the same
