Start by laying out the 12.
The neighbors of 12 must be 11 and 10.
The neighbor of 11 must be 9, and the neighbor of 10 must be 8, and so on and so forth, until you get a unique arrangement.
26 oz/13 bars = 2 oz/1 bar
Each bar weighs 2 oz
multiply the amount of bars to the amount they weigh:
35 x 2 = 70
35 bars weigh 70 oz
hope this helps
Answer:
# red marbles = 25
# blue marbles = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
r + b = 32
r = 4 + 3b
substitute '4 + 3b' for 'r' in the 1st equation
4 + 3b + b = 32
4 + 4b = 32
4b = 28
b = 7
red = 32 - 7
r = 25
If they're integers, that means they can't be fractions (such as 15/2 and 2).
So the only couples of integers that, when multiplied, result in 15 are:
1 and 15
5 and 3.
(there are no other possibilities as both 5 and 3 are not divisible further).
The smaller of the two sums (15+1; 5+3) is 5+3=8.
The least possible sum of a and b is 8.
This is a Function cause x doesn't repeat
