Answer:

8 days

Step-by-step explanation:

160÷16=10 so 20 hens can produce 10 eggs a day. so if it were 10 hens it would be half of that making it 5 eggs a days. 40÷5=8 so it would take 8 days

Which of the following expressions are equivalent to \left(9\dfrac{7}{8} + 2\dfrac{4}{5}\right)-\dfrac{1}{2}(9 87 +2 54 )− 21

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$12\dfrac{7}{40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\left(9\dfrac{7}{8} + 2\dfrac{4}{5}\right)-\dfrac{1}{2}$

We need to find the simplified form of the given expression.

It can be rewritten as

$\left(9+\dfrac{7}{8} + 2+\dfrac{4}{5}\right)-\dfrac{1}{2}$

Combine integers and fractions separately.

$(9+2)+(\dfrac{7}{8}+\dfrac{4}{5}-\dfrac{1}{2})$

Taking LCM we get

$11+\dfrac{35+32-20}{40}$

$11+\dfrac{47}{40}$

In can be written as

$11+\dfrac{40+7}{40}$

$11+1+\dfrac{7}{40}$

$12+\dfrac{7}{40}$

$12\dfrac{7}{40}$

Therefore, the expression $12\dfrac{7}{40}$ is equivalent to the given expression.

Klio2033 [76]

I’m not sure what happened while you were writing this, but if I’m reading it right, “My” has 18 books. If “My” has 3 times as many as 6, that also means 3 times 6, which is 18.

Evaluate u + xy, if u = 18, x = 10, and y = 8. A. 188 B. 36 C. 98 D. 224

Luda [366]

If you would like to evaluate u + xy, you can do this using the following steps:

u = 18, x = 10, y = 8
u + xy = 18 + 10 * 8 = 18 + 80 = 98

The correct result would be C. 98.
