Answer:

121 new cans can eventually be made from 243 aluminum cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity 1 such as 2 miles per second or 5 kilometer per hour.

As per the statement:

Three aluminum cans can be recycled to make a new can.

Unit rate per aluminium can = \frac{1}{3} new can

We have to find the new cans can eventually be made from 243 aluminum cans.

By definition of unit rate;

\text{Number of new cans made from 243 cans} = \text{Unit rate per aluminium can} \times 243

Substitute the given values we have;

\text{Number of new cans made from 243 cans} = \frac{1}{3} \times 243 = 81

Again do the same process:

Number of new can made from 81 can  is \frac{1}{3} \cdot 81 = 27

Similarly,

Number of new cans made from 27 can = \frac{1}{3} \cdot 27 = 9

Number of new cans made from 9 can =\frac{1}{3} \cdot 9 = 3

Number of new cans made from 3 can =  \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3 = 1

Now, No further new can made.

Therefore, total new can made from 243 is 81+27+9+3+ 1 =121 cans

5x+7x-1/2x+1/4=6 helpppppp
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

x = 1/2 = 0.500

Step-by-step explanation:

   Solve  :    2x-1 = 0

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

                     2x = 1

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

                    x = 1/2 = 0.500
