If we assume Sam would achieve his aim of cutting the metal into 8 pieces.
Then he will make 8 cuts. It takes him 5 minutes to make each cut. This is how long it takes to make the cut. This only tells us that he will take a total of 8*5 = 40 minutes, to make all the cuts.
Sam will make 8 cuts as stated in the question.
Answer: K=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-8k+6=-10k+10
+10k
2k+6=10
-6
2k=4
k=2
For this question you would need to do 4 divided by 3. The answer would be 1.3 cup(s) would be in each bowl.
Hope that helps!!
Here is my process for solving this.
First I drew arrows that indicated I was moving the whole triangle 5 units to the left.
*Look at first attachment*
Then I drew another triangle using those new points. (The new triangle is in pink)
*Look at second attachment*
Then I drew arrows that moved this new triangle 4 units up. (The new arrows are in pink)
*Look at third attachment*
Then I drew the new triangle in blue using the new points.
*Look at fourth attachment*
Then I mirrored / reflected the triangle over the x axis (the horizontal line) In green.
*Look at fifth attachment*
The fifth attachment in green is the final product! Hope that helps.
