Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is no because no pocket can be empty and there isn't enough money to satisfy the condition. At least, one dollar must be stored in each pocket but the number (integer) of dollars in each pocket is different.

Let's store the minimum amount of dollars in the pockets while satisfying the condition. Place 1 dollar in the first pocket. The second pocket must have 2 dollars (it can't be 1 dollar, it must be a different number of dollars). The third pocket must have third dollars.

Repeating this process, the ninth pocket must have 9 dollars. At this moment, we have arranged 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9=45 dollars in our pockets. But we only had 44 dollars! Plus, the tenth pocket is still empty.

If you store more dollars on the first, second, nth pockets, you will just run out of money more quickly than in our process above. so it's impossible to arrange the money in such way.

GarryVolchara [31]
Answer=18 pages

Steven read 9 pages on Monday. If he needs to read DOUBLE that amount on Tuesday, then we need to take the number of pages he read on Monday and times it by 2.

9*2=18pages

Steven needs to read 18 pages on Tuesday.

**Remember that Double is the same as 'two times more', or 2x more...

This is for my quiz) Wich table is linear and why is it linear?
Anestetic [448]
Both graphs A and B are linear. In both graphs, the y value is going up at a constant rate in comparison to their x values. For example, in graph A every time the x value is increased by 1 the y value is increased by 2 values showing that they have the same gradient. For a graph to be linear it must have a constant rate of increase or decrease.

Solve the equations. 4( 3d+23)= 12+32d​
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

d = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3d + 23) = 12 + 32d ← distribute parenthesis on left side

12d + 92 = 12 + 32d ( subtract 32d from both sides )

- 20d + 92 = 12 ( subtract 92 from both sides )

- 20d = - 80 ( divide both sides by - 20 )

d = 4
