Equation:

(28     -     4) / 2    =     p

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

28     -   4/2     =    p

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

12         =       p

Step 2: Flip the equation.

p          =      12

Answer:       =======>    p       =       12 Pounds of potting soil Emmanuel would have gotten last week



When Graph:

28   -   4/2    =    p

Intersection Points ======>     (12,     12 )






Hope that helps!!!!                                     : )

Selina is playing a game that uses the spinner below.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A) 12.5%

B) 50%

C) 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, 7 is one of the 8 possibilities (1/8). 1/8 of 100 is 12.5, so your chance of spinning a 7 is 12.5%

For B, even numbers are 4/8 or 1/2 of your options. 1/2 of 100 is 50, so your chance of spinning an even number is 50%

For C, there are 4 out of 8 numbers that are prime (2,3,5, & 7).

4/8 or 1/2 of 100 is 50, so your chance of spinning a prime number is 50%

hope this helps
