Marty read 4 times as many pages as Nelson and Jennifer COMBINED. Marty read 1,860 pages.
In total, after dividing Marty's total by 4, Jennifer and Nelson both read a total of 465 pages.
After subtracting Nelson's 240, Jennifer is then found to have read 225 pages.
B would be the best viable option, as it clearly shows that 240+?x4=1,860, which it does.
Hope this helped. Khan Academy is a great resource for any learner. :)
To solve this problem, let us first assign some
variables. Let us say that:
x = pigs
y = chickens
z = ducks
From the problem statement, we can formulate the
following equations:
1. y + z = 30 --->
only chicken and ducks have feathers
2. 4 x + 2 y + 2 z = 120 --->
pig has 4 feet, while chicken and duck has 2 each
3. 2 x + 2 y + 2 z = 90 --->
each animal has 2 eyes only
Rewriting equation 1 in terms of y:
y = 30 – z
Plugging this in equation 2:
4 x + 2 (30 – z) + 2 z = 120
4 x + 60 – 2z + 2z = 120
4 x = 120 – 60
4 x = 60
x = 15
From the given choices, only one choice has 15 pigs. Therefore
the answers are:
She has 15 pigs, 12 chickens, and 18 ducks.
Answer: first option 3, - 7
Justification:
1) Given expression:9x² - 5x - 7
2) Each monomial is a term.
The monomials are each combination of numbers and letters (coefficient, letters and exponents) separated of other monomials (terms) with a + or - operator.
3) Therefore, there are 3 terms which are:
9x²,
-5x, and
-7.
The polynomials with 3 terms are called monomials.
4) The monomial (term) withoud letter is the constant. In this case that is -7.
Answer:
This might get confusing but bear with me.
The top two are correct, leave them where they are. The 6th one down is step three, the 8th one down is step four, the 3rd one down is step five, the 4th one down is step six, the 7th ne down is step seven so leave it alone, and the 5th one down is step 8.
