If each case weighs 24 pounds, then 1p=24 pounds. so if we're trying to find a function of weight, p=24c.
Example: When you have 2 cases, you plug in a 2 for c
p=24c
p=24(2)
p=48
So if you have two cases, it will total 48 pounds,
So that is why the equation is p=24c. Hope this helps!
= 1/2 ( x + 5 ) ( x + 4 )
If you want to round 49.39 to the nearest tenths place you will have to look at your tenths digit.
The digit is 3, right?
Look at the next number after 3. It is the number 9 for the hundredths place. If the number is bigger than 5 you round it. If it is smaller, you keep it the same. 9 is bigger than 5 so you make the 3 into a 4.
Then, you're answer is 49.4 or 49.40 (Which are basically the same answer)
It also works the same with the other digits. Simple, right? :)
Problem 11
<h3>Answer: h =
2A/b</h3>
------------------
Explanation:
We need to get h by itself. To do so, we first multiply both sides by 2. Then we divide both sides by b
A = (1/2)*b*h
2A = b*h
b*h = 2A
h = 2A/b

Problem 12
<h3>Answers:</h3>
- Equation: (n+2)/5 = 14
- Solution to that equation: n = 68
------------------
Explanation:
The number n is increased by 2 to get n+2
Then we divide by 5 to get (n+2)/5
This is set equal to 14 to get the equation (n+2)/5 = 14
Solving the equation would look like this
(n+2)/5 = 14
n+2 = 5*14 .... multiply both sides by 5
n+2 = 70
n = 70-2 .... subtract 2 from both sides
n = 68
================================================
Problem 13
<h3>Answer: Not a solution</h3>
------------------
Explanation:
We'll replace every copy of x with -3 and simplify
-2x + 5 > 13
-2*(-3) + 5 > 13
6 + 5 > 13
11 > 13
The last inequality is false because 11 is not greater than 13. Since the last inequality is false, this makes the first inequality false when x = -3.
Therefore, x = -3 is not a solution.
Answer:
x = 73
x = -35
Step-by-step explanation:
Here are the 8 numbers:
34, 31, 15, x, 17, 4, 20, 25
Here are the 8 numbers in ascending order with x as the greatest number:
4, 15, 17, 20, 25, 31, 34, x
x - 4 = 69
x = 73
Here are the 8 numbers in ascending order with x as the smallest number:
x, 4, 15, 17, 20, 25, 31, 34
34 - x = 69
-x = 69 - 34
-x = -35
x = -35
Answer:
x = 73
x = -35
