The answer is D, because the question asks for "...the sum of x and 5..." which means that they want x and 5 to be together, so that eliminates every answer choice except D.

Your question states...

Sixteen -------> 16
divided by -------> /
the sum of x and 5 -----> x+5
is 12 ------> = 12

16/x+5 = 12

Answer D

The reason it is NOT answer A is because is says "divided by the sum of x and 5".  In the order of operations, division happens before addition, so if it did not say "the sum of", then 16 divided by x (16/x) would happen before adding 5 (like in answer A).  But is says "the sum of" so you have to do the addition first.

Seven tenths of a number plus fourteen is less than forty-nine
zloy xaker [14]
I'm going to assume you need this inequality solved.

First, write it as numbers, not words.

7/10n + 14 < 49

where "n" is the unknown number.

Second, if I were you, I'd change that fraction into a decimal, as it'll make life easier later on.

7/10 = 0.7

Now, solve it like you would any other equation.

0.7n + 14 < 49

0.7n +14 - 14 < 49 - 14

0.7n < 35

0.7n ÷ 0.7 < 35 ÷ 0.7

n < 50

The answer is n < 50

1. 7(6-(-4))<br> What is this I don’t know
Marina CMI [18]
So you would start with removing the parentheses so 6- - 4 would be 6+4 because the double negative and then that would be 10 so 7 times 10 so your answer is 70

Someone please help! i don’t get what it’s asking or how to do it :( worth 12 points

Answer:

2 cubic yards

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we are simply finding the volume of a 3D shape. We can calculate this by L × W × H.

9.5 × 12 × 1/3 = 48 ft³

(Note: 4 inches is 1/3 foot)

This means Rosilaine needs 48 cubic feet of wood chips. However, the wood chips are sold in yards, so we need to convert cubic feet to cubic yards.

48 ÷ 27 = 1.777 (repeating decimal)

This means Rosilaine should buy 2 cubic yards of wood chips.
