0.04 is multiplied 10 times to get 0.004
First distribute in the 2 on the left side to get 6d+6=7+6d
Then, you would combine the variables to be on one side of the equation by doing -6d. However, this would cancel out the d by leaving you with 0d+6=7. That is the same thing as saying 6=7.
The answer to this equation is no solution because 6 is NOT equal to 7.
Answer:
1) x= 3/2= 1 1/2
2) x= 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1)How many times as heavy as Whiskers is Piglio?
a) Write a multiplication equation for the question.
2 2/3 kg * [x]= 4kg
b) Write a division equation for the question.
4/ 2 (2/3) = x
c) Is the answer greater than 1 or less than 1?
Ans) Greater than 1
d) Find the answer
4/ 8/3= x
x= 3/2= 1 1/2
Pigilo is 1 1/2 times as heavy as whiskers
2)How many times as heavy as Piglio is Whiskers?
a) Write a multiplication equation for the question.
4 kg * [x]= 2 2/3 kg
b) Write a division equation for the question.
2 (2/3)/4 = x
c) Is the answer greater than 1 or less than 1?
Ans) Less than 1
d) Find the answer
8/3/4= x
8/3 * 1/4= x
2/3= x
Whiskers is 2/3 times as heavy as Pigilo.
Let's use K for Kona and F for Fuji. The system of equations has to be a balanced system. For example, you can't mix the number of pounds of beans with the cost for each because pounds and dollars are different and you can only combine like terms...pounds with pounds and dollars with dollars. So let's start with the number of pounds. Since we don't know how much of each he bought we have the 2 unknowns, F and K, but we DO know that he bought 23 pounds total. So the first equation is
K + F = 23
Now let's see what we can do with the dollars. Again, we don't know how much he bought of each kind of coffee, but we do know that Kona beans cost $11 per pound and that Fuji beans cost $7.50 per pound, and we know that he spent a total of $197. So let's set that up:
11K + 7.50F = 197
Those are your 2 equations. It doesn't say you need to solve them, so you're done.
