\huge{\boxed{\text{42 ounces}}}

25% is equal to \frac{1}{4}, so multiplying it by 4 gets 100%.  This means we can multiply 10.5 by 4 to get 100% of the fiber the koala ate that day.

10.5*4=\boxed{42}

Answer:

42 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

So a koala absorbs 25% of fiber they eat.

A koala absorbed 10.5 ounces in a day.

Let x be the amount of ounces of fiber the source(s) actually contained that day.

So we have 25% of x is 10.5

As an equation that is .25x=10.5 or 1/4 *x=10.5.

.25x=10.5

To solve this equation you can divide both sides by .25 giving you

x=10.5/.25=42.

If you chose the other equation which is an equivalent equation you would multiply both sides by 4.

1/4 *x=10.5

x=4(10.5)

x=42

Justify Reasoning Determine whether 3x + 12 + x is equivalent to 4(3 + x). Use properties of operations to justify your answer.
Orlov [11]
For 3x + 12 + x, do like terms:
4x + 12
For 4(3 + x), multiply
12 + 4x
They are both the same, just written in different ways. One is adding like terms and the other is multiplying with parentheses. Even though it may be switched around, it is still the same.

Hope this helps :)

After being hit, the puck travels along the ice at a constant speed. What might cause his motion to change?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

<em>Hi! Todo here!! UwU</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Even if the puck is on ice, I wouldn't automatically assume no friction. Otherwise hockey pucks could be tapped slightly and potentially go across entire arenas. I'd say include at least a small friction force opposing motion.
