Answer:

look down

Step-by-step explanation:

sam bought 3 pounds so 0.75 multiplied with 3 is 2.25 then we subtract 5.88 by 2.25 to get the original price for 3 pounds which is 3.63. Last step we divide 3.63 by 3 to get the original price for 1 pound and the answer should be 1.21 per pound.

The final equation should be $5.88- $2.25÷3= $1.21

Define x :
------------------------------------------------------
Let the width be x.

------------------------------------------------------
Find Area of the walkway :
------------------------------------------------------
Area = 30x + 30x + 20x + 20x + 4x²       
Area = 100x + 4x²

------------------------------------------------------
Find cost of the walkway in term of x:
------------------------------------------------------
1m² = $10
100x + 4x² = 10(4x² + 100x)
(100x + 4x²)m = $(40x² + 1000x)

------------------------------------------------------
Find Width of the walkway :
------------------------------------------------------
The budget is $6000

40x² + 1000x = 6000
40x² + 1000x - 6000 = 0
x² + 25x -150 = 0              //Divide by 40 through
(x - 5)(x + 30) = 0             //Factorise
x = 5 or x = -30 (Rejected, width cannot be negative)

------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The width can be 5m wide.

you did 150 J of work lifting a 120 N backpack. how much did the backpack weigh in pounds?(hint:there are 4.448 N in one pound)
a_sh-v [17]

If the backpack weighs 120 N, then the equivalent
weight in pounds is about 26.98 .

All that business about lifting and joules of work is
completely irrelevant to this question.

Show that if n is an integer and n^3 + 5 is odd then n is even
Salsk061 [2.6K]
If n is odd then its cube is also odd because odd times odd is odd. When we add 5, an odd number, we get an even number.
If n is even, its cube is also even so adding an odd number makes the sum odd. So if the expression is odd, n must be even.
