Answer:
Lin has 11 acorns ⇒ answer D
He subtract 4 from 7 instead of add 4 to 7
Step-by-step explanation:
- Lin has 4 pinecones and some acorns
- She has 7 fewer pinecones than acorns
- The meaning of 7 fewer pinecones than acorns is the number of the
pinecones is less than the number of acorns by 7
∵ She has 4 pinecones
∵ She has 7 fewer pinecones than acorns
- The number of pine cones is less than the number of acorns by 7
∴ 4 = number of acorns - 7
- Add 7 to both sides
∴ 11 = number of acorns
*<em> Lin has 11 acorns</em>
- Tom choose answer A which is 3
- He made a mistake in the equation
- He put ⇒ number of the acorns = 7 - 4 not 7 + 4
∴ number of acorns = 3
* <em>He subtract 4 from 7 instead of add 4 to 7</em>
Answer:
Suit: $13; Shoes: $8
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the unknowns (which are commissions on the sale of suits and shoes) by u and h.
The associate earned a commission of $47 the first week. That $47 represents the sum of the commission earned from selling suits and the commission earned from selling shoes.
We can represent this fact as follows:
3u + 1h = $47 (3 times the commission for selling 1 suit)
The appropriate equation describing the situation in the second week follows:
7u + 2h = $107
Now we have two linear equations in two unknowns, enough to enable us to calculate the commissions on selling suits and shoes.
3u + 1h = $47
7u + 2h = $107
We are to solve this system using the substitution method. The easiest approach here is to solve the first equation for h: h = $47 - 3u
and
then replace h in the second equation by $47 - 3u:
7u + 2($47 - 3u) = $107
Performing the indicated multiplication, we get 7u + $94 - 6u = $107
Simplifying this results in u + $94 = $107, and subtracting $94 from both sides reduces this equation to u = $13.
Thus, the commission on selling a suit is $13.
The commission on selling a pair of shoes is obtained from subbing $13 for u in the very first equation (3u + 1h = $47): 3($13) + h = $47. Subtracting $39 from both sides results in $8 = h. The commission on selling a pair of shoes is $8.
<h3>
Answer: 8/15</h3>
Work Shown:
x = (1/3) divided by (5/8)
x = (1/3) * (8/5)
x = (1*8)/(3*5)
x = 8/15
Answer:
<h3>12</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
The cardinal number of a set is the number of element in the set. Given the set A = {{3, 5, 7, ... 25}}, you can see that the elements of the set are odd numbers from 3 to 25. Writing out the full set;
A = {{3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25}}
Counting the total number of element in the set, you will see that there are only 12 elements in the set. Hence the cardinal number of the set is 12 i.e n(A) = 12
