when you solve a problem by working backward, what does your answer represent? how can you check your answer?
Rus_ich [418]
Lets say you have an addition problem

3 + 7 = ?

To figure that you can just add in your head since its easy.

3 + 7 = 10

You can work backwords to check to see if your awnser is right.

When you work backwards you do the opposite of what you are doing, so if your adding the opposite would be subtracting, and if your multiplying than the opposite would be dividing.

So you could work it out like this:

(Regular⬇️)
3 + 7 = 10
(Backwards⬇️)
10 - 7 = 3

And if you get the same numbers that were in the original awnser than you are correct! Hope this helps!!!!

Bill went to the museum at 11:30 A.M . He stayed for 3 1/2 hours.When did he leave ?
tatuchka [14]
To start, note that an hour is 60 minutes long. A 1/2 hour, or half hour, is then 60/2=30 minutes. Therefore, when we have 11 hours and 30 minutes, we have 11 and a half hours. Adding 3 and a half to that, we get 11.5+3.5=15 (a half can also be expressed as .5, although it's not typically done that way when expressing time - it just might be easier to visualize it this way). Therefore, we are 15 hours into the day. However, we can't just stop there - we have to account for AM and PM. Therefore, we subtract 12 hours from 15. If the number is positive, we are in PM - otherwise, we're in AM. Therefore, as 15-12=3, the time is in PM. The remaining number is the time, so Bill leaves at 3 PM. If we are left with a decimal (e.g. 3.25), we would keep the 3 and multiply the 0.25 (the decimal) by 60 to figure out how many minutes we have, so 3.25 would turn into 3+0.25*60=3:15.

Use the following recipe to answer questions 1 through 4:
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

1. pounds (lb)

2. pints (pt)

3. teaspoon (tsp)

4. cups (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>US Standard Units</u></h3>

<u>Liquid</u>

  • Fluid Ounces (fl oz)
  • Cups (c)
  • Pints (pt)
  • Quarts (qt)
  • Gallons (gal)

128 fl oz = 16 cups = 8 pints = 4 quarts = 1 gallon

<u>Mass</u>

  • Ounces (oz)
  • Pounds (lb)
  • Tons (short ton)

32000 ounces = 2000 pounds = 1 ton

<h3><u>Solutions</u></h3>

1.  The best US standard unit in which to measure pumpkin with a mass of 1.2 kg would be pounds (lb).

⇒ 1 kg ≈ 2.205 lb

⇒ 1.2 kg ≈ 1.2 × 2.205 = 2.65 lb

2. The best US standard unit in which to measure stock with a volume of 1.5 L would be pints (pt).

⇒ 1 L ≈ 2.133 pt

⇒ 1.5 L ≈ 1.5 × 2.113 = 3.17 pt

3. The best US standard unit in which to measure sugar of 5 mL would be teaspoon (tsp).

⇒ 5 mL = 5 g ≈ 1 teaspoon

4.  The best US standard unit in which to measure yogurt with a volume of 0.25 L would be cups (c).

⇒ 1 L ≈ 4.167 c

⇒ 0.25 L ≈ 0.25 × 4.167 =  1.04 c
