If there are 10 reams, and each ream is 32 ounces, then there is 320 ounces total im the case! Then, if you know that there are 16 ounces in a pound, then you can do 320/16, and get a total of 20 pounds in the case!
Hope this helped!
The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.
1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16
2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16
3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12
4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3
To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.
The first thing is the slope
y = 1/2 x + b is the new line. Now we must solve for b
2 = 1/2 (-2) + b
2 = -1 + b
3 = b
The new line is
y = 1/2 x +3
Noah is right the answer is 6.9
