1 bushel = 186 heads of lettuces
multiply each side by 6
6 bushels = 1,116 heads of lettuces
The farmer picked 1,116 heads of lettuces
We can get two different equations from this:
3x = 18
and
3x = -18
So:
x = 6, x = -6
x = {6, -6}
Answer:
.5 and 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal distance is given by the formula:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
where:
θ=21
opposite=2000 ft
adjacent=a
thus calculating for a we get:
tan 21=2000/a
thus
a=2000/tan 21
a=5210.18 ft
Answer: 5210.18 ft
First, let's convert all of these numbers to decimal form:
(This will make it much easier to compare.)
- 0.6, - 0.625, - 0.4117, - 0.72
Now we can list them from least to greatest!
-0.4117, - 0.6, -0.625, -0.72
And don't forget to convert the selective decimals that we converted earlier back into fractions!
Therefore, the final list would be:
- 7/17, - 0.6, - 5/8, - 0.72
Hope this helps!
