Well really it would have to depend on the flashlight. Is it an led bulb or a regular bulb?
They are algebraic symbols or known as unknown number. There is no true value for them. The value of algebraic symbols are based on equations
ie. 1+x = 2
First, we isolate the x by canceling the +1 FROM BOTH SIDES(Balance method) by -1 ON BOTH SIDES.
1+x-1 = 2-1
So we are left with the x on the left side, and a single number on the right side. Therefore, our calculation is complete.
x = 1
More complex cases would be
2y-3 = 45
First, we need to isolate the algebraic symbol, which is 2y (yx2) by +3 ON BOTH SIDES
2y-3+3 = 45+3
2y = 48
WE ARE NOT DONE! 2y=48 is still an equation. Therefore, to isolate the y, we need to divide BOTH SIDES by 2
2y/2 = 48/2
y = 24
There is no true or absolute or definite value for algebraic symbols like x,y,z,a,c,t,h,d etc. They are used to represent unknown numbers.
Hope this helped!
Just because 2 things are related doesn't mean they will both be changed when one thing happens. For example steak and candy, just because they are both food doesn't mean they taste the same or interact with each other.
Answer: 18.125 lbs
Explanation: The baby weighed 18.125 pounds at the end of eight months.
The baby weighed 7.25 lbs at birth. Eight months later, he weighed 2.5 or 2½ times its birth weight. Multiply 7.25 by 2.5 (which equals 18.125).
So now eight months later, he's 18.125 pounds.
