Tatiana [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:     " 1 lb ,  14 oz. " .

_________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

_________________________________________________

Note the exact conversion:    " 16 oz.  =   1 lb.  " .

→  {that is:  " 16 ounces  =  1 pound " .}.

_________________________________________________

  30 oz. * ( 1 lb / 16 oz). =  \frac{30}{16}  lbs. ;

                                      = (30/2) / (16/2)   lbs.

                                      =  (15 / 8) lbs.  ;

_________________________________________________

       1

8 ┌ 15

 <u>   -  8   </u>                          

        7  ;              

______________________

The answer is equal to:  " 1  7/8  lbs. " .  

           →   (1 lb)  + (7/8) (lb).  ;

______________________

 →  (7/8) lb.   =  how many "oz." ??

_______________________

Note the exact conversion:   " 1 lb.   =   16 oz.  " .

_______________________

 →   \frac{7 lb}{8} * \frac{16 oz}{1 lb}  ;

                    =  \frac{7}{8} * \frac{16}{1}  oz.   ;

 →  The "8" cancels to a "1" ; and the "16" cancels to a "2" ;

                   →  {since:  " {16 ÷ 8 = 2 } " ;  

             and:   {since:  " {8 ÷ 8 = 1 } " .

_______________________________________________

 →  So we can rewrite as:  

_______________________________________________                  

                  →  \frac{7}{1} *  \frac{2}{1}  oz. ;

                         =  { 7  *  2 }  oz.  ;

                         =   14  oz.

_______________________________________________

→  So:        

_______________________________________________  

 →   " 30 oz. "  =  " (1 lb)  + (7/8) lb.  "  ;

                        =  "  1 lb. + 14 oz. "  ;

                        =  " 1 lb ,  14 oz. " .

_______________________________________________

        →  The answer is:  " 1 lb ,  14 oz. " .

_______________________________________________

Let us check our answer:

  →   Does:     " 1 lb.  +   14 oz. = ?  30 oz. ? " ;

_______________________________________________

Note the exact conversion:  " 1 lb.  =  16 oz. " .

_______________________________________________

  →   Does:  " 16 oz.   +   14 oz.   =  ?   30 oz. ??  " ;

_______________________________________________

  ₁

  16 oz            

<u>+ 14 oz        </u>    

  30  oz.

_______________________________________________

→   Does:   " 30 oz.  = ?  30 oz. ? "  ??? ;  →   Yes!

_______________________________________________

Hope this helps!

X=6
First subtract 11 from both sides and you'll get 5x^2=180 then divide 180 by 5 which equals 36 you get x^2=36 find square root of 36 is 6

PLEASE HELP I AM DESPERATE I WILL GIVE THANKS, 5 STARS, AND THE BRAINLIEST!!!
slava [35]

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = - 2x - 3, x ≤ 0    You would use this equation for finding p(0), since 0 is equal to 0.

p(x) = - 2x - 3, x ≤ 0  ← You can ignore the x≤0 part.

p(0) = - 2(0) - 3              Input the value 0 as x.

p(0) = 0 - 3                    Simplify

p(0) = -3    

Next,

p(x) = -x² - 4, x > 0        You would use this equation for finding p(1), since 1 is greater than 0.    

p(x) = -x² - 4, x > 0    ←  You can ignore the x>0 part.  

p(1) = -(1)² - 4             Input the value 1 as x. 1² is equal to 1 times negative is -1.

p(1) = -1 - 4                 Simplify

p(1) = -5

Then,

p(x) = - 2x - 3, x ≤ 0    You would use this equation for finding p(-2), since -2 is less than 0.

p(x) = - 2x - 3, x ≤ 0  ← You can ignore the x ≤ 0 part.

p(-2) = - 2(-2) - 3          Input the value -2 as x. A negative times a negative is

p(-2) = 4 - 3                  a positive.

p(-2) = 1                        Simplify

Finally, you have to fine the value of \frac{p(0)+p(1)}{p(-2)}

\frac{p(0)+p(1)}{p(-2)}          

\frac{(-3) + (-5)}{(1)}            Input the values of p(0), p(1), and p(-2).

\frac{-8}{1}                      Simplify

-8

The answer is -8.

HELP I REALLY NEED HELP
zepelin [54]

Answer: 72 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

So, the real floor of a classroom is 36 feet by 32 feet.

And the scale drawing, has length of the classroom equal to 9 inches.

What is the area in square inches of the floor in the scale drawing

1 foot = 12 inches

The length of the classroom, measured in feet, has been multiplied by 12, to get converted in inches. After that, it has been divided by a number, a proportion, to get to 9 inches.

36feet * 12 / x = 9 inches

432 inches / x = 9 inches

Now, to solve for x, we can cross-multiply

432 inches = 9x inches

Divide 9 inches on both sides.

x = 48

To solve the exercise, we need to calculate the floor's area in the scale drawing.

We have the length = 9 inches.

Now, let's calculate the width

Width = 32 feet * 12 / 48

Width = 384 inches / 48

Width = 8 inches

Area = Length * Width

Area = 9 inches * 8 inches

Area = 72 inches squared

Hope I helped!
