Given:
Total number of colored pencils = 16
Colored pencils fit in a box = 8
To find:
The number of boxed that will fit the 16 pencils.
Solution:
According to the question 8 colored pencils will fit in a box. So, we have
8 pencils = 1 box
Multiply both sides by 2.
2×8 pencils = 2×1 box
16 pencils = 2 box
Therefore, 2 boxes are required to fit the 16 colored pencils.
12.4 is the answer for both
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Take one polynomial from the other means to perform the sub.traction of them. Recall that it is better to use grouping symbols when subtracting polynomials, so we get the signs right when combining like terms:
The indicated subtraction is: 
Make sure that before removing the grouping symbol (parenthesis) that is preceded by a negative sign, we change the signs of every term inside it. Then combine like terms to get the final answer:
Which is the last option shown in the question
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of vehicles that the sales person sold in a month.
The sales person at the car dealership earns a monthly salary of $2400 and $250 for each vehicle sold. Let y represent the total amount he earns for selling x vehicles in a month. Therefore,
y = 250x + 2400
To determine the number of vehicles that the sales person needs to sell in a month to earn exactly $4000, we would substitute
4000 for y. It becomes
4000 = 250x + 2400
250x = 4000 - 2400 = 1600
x = 1600/250
x = 6.4
He would have to sell 7 vehicles because he cannot sell 6.4 vehicles and if he sells 6 vehicles, it would be lesser than $4000
