Negative one would be the answer
A bag contains 10 pounds of dog food.
A family feeds their dogs 0.85 pound of dog food a day so cin seven day the dog eats (0.85 x 7) = 5.95 pounds
so, <span>dog food is left in the bag after 7 days is </span>(10-5.95) = 4.05 pounds
Answer:
multiplying both-side of the equation by 3
substituting 36 for p to check the solution
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation p/3 = 12, we will follow the steps below;
first multiply 3 to both-side of the equation, that is:
p/3 × 3 = 12 × 3
On the left-hand side of the equation, 3 at the numerator will cancel-out 3 at the denominator, leaving us with just p while on the right-hand side of the equation 12 will be multiplied by 3
p= 36
To check the correctness of the equation, we can substitute p = 36 back into the equation and then check, that is;
p/3 = 12
36/3 = 12
This implies p = 36 is correct
The number -4 is a whole number
