The solution would be x=0 because the statement is false.
Answer:
a) 10 pieces of 2/3 pound can be made.
b) 0.54 pounds of wax is left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of clear wax available = 
pounds
So, the maker has in total 4.5 pounds of wax
Now, The weight of each piece = 
pounds
To find the number of pieces that can be made out of 4.5 pounds of wax,
let that number = n
So, 
or, n = 
So, nearly 6 pieces can be made completely out of the clear wax
Left over amount of wax = Total weight - Weights of the pieces made
= 4.5- 6(0.66)
= 0.54 pounds
Hence, 0.54 pounds of wax is left over
Answer:
The number of quarters Josie has in her collection of 92 coins 28 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
The given information are
The total number of coins Josie has = 92
Let the number of quarters she has = x
Therefore, 92 = 8 + 3×x
8 + 3×x = 92
3×x = 92 - 8 = 84
3×x = 84
x = 84/3 = 28
x = 28
The number of quarters Josie has in her collection of 92 coins = 28 quarters.
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/3÷2/-6
⇒ -4/3×-6/2
⇒ -24/6
⇒ -4
Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply -6 by itself six times, then divide 1 by -6 four times. Multiply the products. Then multiply -6 by itself one more time and you will get 36.
The top question is 1/4. There seems to be a small multiplaction symbol next to the fractions, I'm ignoring that. To get 1/4, I multiplied 2 by itself six times because of the exponent, to get 64. I did the same with the bottom, and recieved 256. 64/256 is 1/4.
