Answer:

The correct answer is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x number of candies in each bag filled by Ken and Mali.

Both Ken and Mali started with equal number of candies and put same number of candies in each bag.

Ken filled nine bags and had three candies left. Therefore total number of candies Ken had = 9x + 3.

Mali filled eight bags and had ten candies left. Therefore total number of candies Mali had = 8x + 10.

As both had equal number of candies in the beginning,

9x + 3 = 8x + 10

⇒ x  = 10 - 3 = 7

Thus each bag contained 7 candies.

Find the area of a rectangle that is 16 3/5in. by 8 9/10
Alenkinab [10]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

Area is 147.74

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to recall that the equation for the area of a rectangle is:

Length * Width = area

So 16 3/5 * 8 9/10 = area

Rearrange so the whole numbers are being multiplied and the fractions are too:

We need to make the denominator same, this can be done by simply multiplying 3/5 by 2:

3/5 * 2 = 6/10

Now the two numbers can be written as 16.6 and 8.9.

Multiply both numbers by 10:

166 * 89 = 14774

Then divide this by 100 (two lots of division by 10)

14774 ÷ 1000 = 147.74

So the area of the rectangle is 147.74!

Write the first 6 terms of the arithmetic sequence whose first term is 8 and has a common difference of 2
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: The first 6 terms are = 8, 10, 12,14,16,18

Step-by-step explanation:

The NTH term of an Arithmetic Sequence is given as

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d

where a1 = First term  given as 8 and

d=  common difference given as 2

Therefore  We have that

the first term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d = 8+(1-1) 2

a1= 8

second term=

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a2= 8 + (2-1) 2

= 8+ 2(1) = 10

3rd term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a3= 8 + (3-1) 2

= 8+ 2(2)= 8 + 4=12

4th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a4= 8 + (4-1) 2

= 8+ 2(3)= 8+6=14

5th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a5= 8 + (5-1) 2

= 8+ 2(4)=8+ 8=16

6th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a6= 8 + (6-1) 2

= 8+ 2(5)=8 +10 =18
