Answer:

<em>48 spices</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of spices each has is a multiple of 5, 3, and 4.

The number of spices each has is 5x, 3x, and 4x.

Pru has 5x spices.

Piper has 3x spices.

Pru has 24 more spices than Piper, so

5x = 3x + 24

2x = 24

x = 12

Phoebe has 4x spices, so Phoebe has

4(12) = 48

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:  Pru, Piper, Phoebe their ratio 5:3:4 added = 12

What this would mean is that Pru has 5/12 of the total amount, Piper has 3/12 of the total, and Phoebe has 4/12 of the total amount of spices all together.


pru = piper + 24

5/12x = 3/12x + 24

5/12x - 3/12x = 24

2/12x = 24

x = 24 / (1/6)

x = 24 * 6

x = 144 spices in all.


Pru has : 5/12(144) = 720/12 = 60 spices

Piper has : 3/12(144) = 432/12 = 36 spices

Phoebe has : 4/12(144) = 576/12 = 48 spices <====

stellarik [79]
If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, we need to write one of the equation to an <span>expression equivalent to y. Let us say the second equation, we write it as follows:

</span><span>6x – 3y = –3
-3y = -6x - 3
y = 2x + 1

We substitute the equation to the first given equation as follows:

</span><span>2x – 5y = –3
</span>2x – 5(2x + 1) = –3
2x - 10x - 5 = -3
-8x = 2
x = -1/4
y
= 2(-1/4) + 1 = 1/2

A teacher wrote the following statements comparing square root of 6 and square root of 7 space end root. I. The value of square
pogonyaev

Answer:

II. The value of square root of 6 is between 2.43 and 2.45, whereas the value of square root of 7 is between 2.63 and 2.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

A square root is an operation which asks what times itself will give theis number. Some numbers will have whole number square roots but many do not. The numbers which do are called perfect squares like 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, etc.... You can approximate other square roots by comparing them to the nearest perfect square.

The √6 and √7 is between the √4 and the √9 since these are the nearest perfect squares. The √4 = 2 and √9 = 3. This means the √6 and √7 is between 2 and 3. Statement I is not true since these values are too large. Statement II is true.
