2500/10=250
250 represents how much the elephant can eat in one day. Since they want to know how much the elephant can eat in 1000 days you would multiply 250 and 1000 which leaves you with 250,000 pounds of food.
The elephant can eat 250,000 pounds of food in 10 days. :)
We have to solve this quadratic equation
for n to get <em>which figure has 56 blocks</em>.

For middle term factorization, we need <em>two numbers that multiplied gives us -56 and added gives us 1 (coefficient of n).</em>
<em>Such two numbers are </em><em>8</em><em> and </em><em>-7</em><em>. We can now write,</em>
<em>
</em>
<u><em>"There is no negative figure number possible, so we disregard -8"</em></u>
Our answer is 7.
ANSWER: The 7th figure has 56 blocks.
I think the answer could possibly be a
To find the z-score for a weight of 196 oz., use

A table for the cumulative distribution function for the normal distribution (see picture) gives the area 0.9772 BELOW the z-score z = 2. Carl is wondering about the percentage of boxes with weights ABOVE z = 2. The total area under the normal curve is 1, so subtract .9772 from 1.0000.
1.0000 - .9772 = 0.0228, so about 2.3% of the boxes will weigh more than 196 oz.
x + 2x - x - 1
- Substitute 2 for x into the expression.
(2) + 2(2) - (2) - 1
(2) + (4) - (2) - 1
- Solve from left to right.
- (2 + 4) - 2 - 1 = 6 - 2 - 1
6 - 2 - 1
- Solve from left to right.
- (6 - 2) - 1 = 4 - 1
4 - 1 = 3
<h3>Your answer is 3.</h3>
