Answer:

Multiply the number of cans by the volume of each: 12,000 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the total volume of more than one can by adding the volumes of the cans involved.

For 2 cans, the volume would be ...

12 oz + 12 oz = 24 oz

When you consider adding numbers more than a couple of times, you start looking for ways to simplify the effort. Multiplication was invented for that purpose. Here, multiplying the volume of 1 can by 1000 is the same as adding the volumes of 1000 cans.

For 1000 cans with volume of 12 oz each, the volume of the total is ...

1000 × 12 oz = 12,000 oz.

Answer:

The percent decrease is approximately $10.75\%$

(Don't know what you are expected to round to.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent change can be calculated by doing:

$\frac{\text{original}-\text{new}}{\text{original}}$

Then you multiply the result to covert it to a percentage.

Let's use this formula:

$\frac{5831 \text{thousand}-5204 \text{ thousand }}{5831 \text{thousand}}$

$\frac{\text{thousand}}{\text{thousand}} \cdot \frac{5831-5204}{5831}$

$\frac{5831-5204}{5831}$

$\frac{627}{5831}$

$0.1075$ approximately

Now the answer as a percent is $10.75\%$ approximately.

The percent decrease is approximately $10.75\%$

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

7 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the total number of pages in the book are 16

The number of pages esteban already read are 9

Let the number of pages left out to read be x

Total number of pages = number of pages read + number of pages to be read

16=9+x

x=16-9

x=7 pages

Therefore There are 7 pages left out to be read.

You have total coins for a total of $. . You only have quarters and dimes. Let represent the number of quarters and represent th

Sonja [21]

Answer:

$Quarters = 41$

$Dimes = 18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Coins = 59$

$Worth = \$12.05$

$d = dimes$

$q = quarters$

Required

The number of each coin

The total coins can be represented as:

$d + q = 59$

$1\ quarter = \$0.25 \\ 1\ dime = \$0.10$

So, the worth of the coin is:

$0.25q + 0.10d = 12.05$

The equations to solve are:

$0.25q + 0.10d = 12.05$

$d + q = 59$

Make d the subject in: $d + q = 59$

$d =59 - q$

Substitute $d =59 - q$ in $0.25q + 0.10d = 12.05$

$0.25q + 0.10(59 - q) = 12.05$

$0.25q + 5.9 - 0.10q = 12.05$

Collect like terms

$0.25q - 0.10q = 12.05 - 5.9$

$0.15q = 6.15$

Solve for q

$q=\frac{6.15}{0.15}$

$q=41$

Substitute $q=41$ in $d =59 - q$

$d = 59 - 41$

$d = 18$

So:

$Quarters = 41$

$Dimes = 18$
