Number of text messages Keisha sent: 16

Number of text messages Miguel sent: 21

Number of text messages Pablo sent: 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Total messages sent = 69

Let,

Messages sent by Keisha = x

Messages sent by Miguel = y

Messages sent by Pablo = z

According to given statement;

x+y+z=69    Eqn 1

y=x+5    Eqn 2

z=2x    Eqn 3

Putting Eqn 2 and 3 in Eqn 1

x+(x+5)+2x=69\\x+x+5+2x=69\\4x=69-5\\4x=64

Dividing both sides by 4;

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{64}{4}\\x=16

Putting x=16 in Eqn 2

y=16+5=21

Putting x=16 in Eqn 3

z=2(16)=32\\

Number of text messages Keisha sent: 16

Number of text messages Miguel sent: 21

Number of text messages Pablo sent: 32

Ibuki factored 12x^7as (4x^3)(3x^4)
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Both are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key understanding here is that you can factor a monomial in many different ways!

To check if any of the factorizations is correct, we can multiply the factors and see if their product is really 12x^712x

7

12, x, start superscript, 7, end superscript.

Hint #22 / 4

\begin{aligned} (\blueD{4}\maroonD{x^3})(\blueD{3}\maroonD{x^4})&=(\blueD{4})(\blueD{3})(\maroonD{x^3})(\maroonD{x^4}) \\\\ &=\blueD{12}\maroonD{x^7} \end{aligned}

(4x

3

)(3x

4

)

​

 

=(4)(3)(x

3

)(x

4

)

=12x

7

​

So Ibuki is correct!

Hint #33 / 4

\begin{aligned} (\blueD{2}\maroonD{x^6})(\blueD{6}\maroonD{x})&=(\blueD{2})(\blueD{6})(\maroonD{x^6})(\maroonD{x}) \\\\ &=\blueD{12}\maroonD{x^7} \end{aligned}

(2x

6

)(6x)

​

 

=(2)(6)(x

6

)(x)

=12x

7

​

So Melodie is also correct!

Both Ibuki and Melodie are correct.

A hose is leaking water at a rate of 2 oz/h. How many cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks?
Over [174]

Answer:

84 cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets how many how to change oz to cup

- One cup contains 8 oz

- We can use the ratio to solve this problem

- A hose is leaking water at a rate of 2 oz/h

- We need to find how many cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks

∵ The rate of the water leak out is 2 oz/hr

∵ 1 cup contains 8 oz

∴ 1 oz = \frac{1}{8} cup

∴ 2 oz = 2 × \frac{1}{8} = \frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4} cup

∴ The rate of the water leak out = \frac{1}{4} cup/h

∵ 1 day = 24 hours

∵ 1 week = 7 days

∴ 1 week = 7 × 24 = 168 hours

∵ The number of hours in 1 week is 168

∴ The number of hours in 2 weeks = 168 × 2 = 336 hours

⇒    cups    :    hours

⇒      \frac{1}{4}         :   1

⇒     x         :    336

- By using cross multiplication

∴ x = 336 × \frac{1}{4}

∴ x = 84

- x represents the number of cups of water leak out

<em>84 cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks</em>
