30-18=12
450/12=37.5. As you can't sell half of a math manipulative you have to round it up. This makes it 38

Ben can sell <em><u>38</u></em> pieces of math manipulatives to reach his goal

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The division operation is one of the basic arithmetic operations

Common signs used are \large{\boxed{:}}} or \large{\boxed{\slash}}

The division is written by placing the numerator above the denominator with a horizontal line between them or use a slash with the numerator's position and the denominator is parallel

The division is actually an iterative subtraction operation (as many as the number of divisors)

Division is the opposite of multiplying

The general form of division can be stated by:

\large{\boxed{\bold{divident:divisor=quotient+remainder}}

example:

<h3>7: 3 = 2 + 1 </h3>
  • 7 = dividend
  • 3 = divisor
  • 2 = quotient
  • 1 = remainder

The form of division can also be expressed in terms of fractions

In the number above, the form of fraction obtained is the form of mixed fractions

\displaystyle \frac{7}{3} =2\frac{1}{3}

Mixed fractions consist of integers and ordinary fractions

Division operation statement:

"7 divided by 3 equals 2 remainder 1

<h3>Known </h3>

Ben wants to at least sell $450 math manipulatives

each manipulative costs $18 to make

selling price : $30 each

<h3>Asked </h3>

the minimum number of math manipulatives he can sell to reach his goal

<h3>Answer</h3>

the benefits of each math manipulative he sells:

benefit = selling price - making price

benefit = $30 - $18

benefit =$12

Because what Ben wants is to make a profit at least $450, the amount that must be sold:

\displaystyle \frac{\$450}{\$12}

= \large{\boxed{\bold{37.5\:pieces}}

we round up : \large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{38\:pieces}}}

[(18- 8) x 3) + (4+3) x 6] divided by 12

step 1- start with the stuff in the parentheses

[(10 x 3) + (7 x 6)] divided by 12

step 2- simplify things in parentheses

[30 + 42] divided by 12

step 3- simplify even more

[72] divided by 12

step 4- remove brackets, and simply even further

72 divided by 12 = 6

Which graph represents the function f(x)= 0.2^x + 3
Dennis_Churaev [7]

The third graph or bottom left graph represents f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To determine which of the given graphs represents the equation f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, we substitute some values in the place of x.

When x=0, f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(0) = 0.2^{0} + 3= 4.

Anything with an exponent of 0 will equal 1.

So the graphs on the right side cannot be the answers.

Step 2:

Now we substitute another value to determine which graph represents f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.

When x=1, f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3, f(1) = 0.2^{1} + 3= 4.2.

The value of f(x) when x=1 is lesser than the value of f(x) when x =0.

So the third graph or bottom left graph represents f(x) = 0.2^{x} + 3.

A boat can travel with a speed of 13 km/hr in still water. If the speed of the stream is 4 km/hr, find the time taken by the boa
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

t=4h

Steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

speed of boat with respect to earth:  13  km

speed of stream with respect to earth:  4 km

13 km/h + 4 km/h = 17 km/h The time to travel 68 km with this speed is thus t = 68 km 17 km h = 4 h
