Answer: 1008 letters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)

= 1 - (3/12)

= 9/12 = 3/4

We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.

= 3/4 × 1344

= 1008 letters

Explain or show work to prove that the following equation is true.6 x 8 = 3 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove the equation id true, solve both sides and if they are equal then the equation is true.

left side = 6 × 8 = 48

right side = 3 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

               = 6 × 2 × 2 × 2

              = 12 × 2 × 2

              = 24 × 2

=             = 48

Since both sides are equal then the equation is true

What is the answer to this question? Please Help.
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

x = 2, y= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x+7

y = 5x-7

Since the equations are both equal to y, set them equal to each other

-2x+7 = 5x-7

Add 2x to each side

-2x+7 +2x= 5x+2x-7

7 = 7x -7

Add 7 to each side

7+7 = 7x

14 = 7x

Divide by 7

14/7 = 7x/7

2 = x

Now find y

y = 5x-7

y = 5*2 -7

y = 10-7

y =3
