The weight of one chair is \fbox{\bf9.73\,{\text{lb}}}.

Further explanation:

The weight of a table and 8 chairs together is 235.68\,{\text{lb}}.

The weight of the table is 157.84 lb.

Therefore the weight of 8 chairs is calculated as follows:

235.68-157.84=77.84

The weight of 8 chairs is obtained as 77.84 lb.

Consider the cost of 1 chair as x.

Then the cost of 8 chairs can be written as 8x.

Therefore the equation can be written as follows:

\begin{aligned}8x&=77.84\hfill\\x&=\frac{{77.84}}{8}\hfill\\x&=9.73\hfill\\\end{aligned}

Here, x represents the weight of 1 chair.

Thus, the weight of 1 chair is obtained as \fbox{\bf9.73\,{\text{lb}}}.

Answer:

9.73 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The total together is 235.68 lb.  Taking away the weight of the table, 157.84, we are left with

235.68-157.84 = 77.84 for the weight of all of the chairs.  Dividing this by 8 gives us the weight of one chair:

77.84/8 = 9.73

1/4 x 2/5 x 3/6 x 4/7 x 5/8 x 6/9 x 7/n=?
postnew [5]

Answer:

c. \frac{1}{12n} = {[12n]}^{-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

[\frac{1}{4}][\frac{2}{5}][\frac{1}{2}][\frac{4}{7}][\frac{5}{8}][\frac{2}{3}][\frac{7}{n}] = \frac{560}{6720n} = [12n]^{-1} = \frac{1}{12n}

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{6}{9}\\ \\ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{6}

* To make this simpler, reduce these two fractions in lowest terms.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
