Answer:

656.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag contains 10,500 ounces of sand.

We have to convert the weight of sand from ounces to pounds.

Since 16 ounces = 1 pound

1 ounce = $\frac{1}{16}$ pound

10,500 ounces = $\frac{10,500}{16}$ pounds

= 656.25 pounds

Answer is 656.25 pounds of sand is contained in the bag.

Answer:

$7x^3-2x^2-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add the two terms.

$(6x^3+3x^2-2)+(x^3-5x^2-3)$

Solving,

Combine the like terms and adding those terms

$(6x^3+3x^2-2)+(x^3-5x^2-3)\\=6x^3+3x^2-2+x^3-5x^2-3\\=6x^3+x^3+3x^2-5x^2-2-3\\=7x^3-2x^2-5$

So, the answer is:

$7x^3-2x^2-5$

Subtract 13.09 from 21.59 giving you 8.5. Since the amount of space on both the left and right margin have to be equal you would divide by 2 to get 4.25 on the left margin as well as the right.
