Answer:
The answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
It cannot be between 3 and 4 because 2/3 is less than 1. You cannot end up with a larger number than 3 in this case. Similarly, it cannot be less than 2/3 because you are multiplying it by 3, which is larger than your first number.
Therefore, it has to be between 3 and 2/3 because you are taking two thirds of 3, which is 2.
The answer is D. Because it is easier to add 9 and 2 and also 8 and 1.
1/3 into a decimal is 0.333.....
Answer:
4n + 8 = -48
n = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Using key words from the problem, you can set up an equation with the proper operations to solve for the variable. Product = multiplication, so the 'product of 4 and a number' = 4n. Increased = addition, so increased by 8 = 4n + 8. The word 'is' means equal to, so:
4n + 8 = -48
In order to solve for 'n', you use inverse (opposite) operations and whatever you do to one side of the equation, you do to the other:
Subtract 8: 4n + 8 - 8 = -48 - 8 or 4n = -56
Divide 4: 4n/4 = -56/4
Solve for 'n': n = -14
1ft 9 in= 21 inches.
6ft=72 inches.
72inches - 21inches = 51 inches.
The hole needs to be 51 inches deeper
