Savannah bought a box of nails for two projects. She uses 18 nails for the first project. For the second project, she uses 10 mo

re than half the number of nails left in the box. Let n represent the original number of nails that come in a box. Which expression represents the number of nails Savannah uses for the second project?
12(n+18)+10

12n−18+10

1/2n − 182+10

18 nails at first
now the total number of nails in box=n-18 where n=original number in box
she uses 10 more than (10+) half (1/2) number of nails in box
10+1/2 times (n-18)
therefor the answer is 1/2(n-18)+10
the answer would be third one if you distribute but it looks like you forgot the / symbol so then answer is
the answer could be the floowing
1/2(n-18)+10
1/2n-18/2+10
1/2n-9+10
1/2n+1
pick the one that is listed as a possible answer

A bicyclist is finishing his repair of a flat tire when a friend rides by with a constant speed of 3.63 m/s. Four seconds later,
castortr0y [4]

From the moment the friend passes the bicyclist, his friend covers a distance over time t of (3.63 m/s)*t.

The bicyclist covers a distance of 1/2*(2.11 m/s^2)*t^2. They meet when these distances are equal:

3.63 t = 1.055 t^2  ==>  1.055 t^2 - 3.63 t = 0

==>  t = 0 s   or   t = 3.44 s

Suppose 15 quarts of a solution that is 35% antifreeze is mixed with 5 quarts of a solution that is 72% antifreeze. 1.how many q
Finger [1]

Answer:

1. 8.85 quarts

2. 44.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

In 15 quarts of a solution with percentage of antifreeze = 35%

Amount of antifreeze = 35% × 15

                                    = 0.35 × 15

                                    = 5.25 quarts

that solution is mixed with 5 quarts of a solution with percentage of antifreeze = 72%

Amount of antifreeze = 72% × 5

                                    = 0.72 × 5

                                    = 3.6 quarts

Total amount of mixture = 15 quarts + 5 quarts = 20 quarts

1. Now we will calculate the total amount of antifreeze in the resulting mixture.

= 5.25 + 3.6 = 8.85 quarts

2. The percentage of the resulting mixture is antifreeze

= \frac{8.85}{20}\times 100

= 44.25%

1. total amount of antifreeze is 8.85 quarts

2. the percentage of antifreeze is 44.25%

How many ways can the letters in the word balloon be arranged? 210 1,260 2,520 5,040
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The number of ways this can be done is 1,260 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of ways in which the letters of the word balloon can be arranged.

To do this, we take into consideration those letters that are repeated and the number of times repeated. The letters are l and o and are repeated two times each.

The number of ways = 7!/2!2! = 5040/4 = 1,260 ways
