Q: What is the least they could weigh together?
A: 0.62 kg
=================================================
Work Shown:
x = weight of first ball
y = weight of second ball
each ball has a weight range of 0.31 kg to 0.37 kg, so,
add straight down to get
which simplifies to
the two soccer balls have a weight range of 0.62 to 0.74, inclusive of both endpoints.
--------
Without using algebra, you basically just add the smallest the two weights could be (0.31) to itself to get 0.31+0.31 = 0.62 which represents the smallest the two weights combined can be. The same happens with the largest weight of 0.37 to get 0.37+0.37 = 0.74 as the max weight of both objects together.
What is the value of the number 3 in the the number 12,532.628
Solution
Here we need to use the place chart. I have attached the place value chart.
According to the place chart 3 is in tens place.
Therefore, the value of the number 3 in the number 12,532.628 is 3 x 10 = 30.
The answer is 30.
3(4x - 2) = 30
12x - 6 = 30 <em>distributed 3 on the left side</em>
<u> +6 </u> <u>+6 </u>
12x = 36
x = 3
Answer: x = 3
