The answer to this question is 6.8 x 10^16.
Answer:
36 erasers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of erasers be e
let number of rulers be r
We can write:
e + r = 70
and
After giving away, he has
Erasers: 2/3e
Rulers: r - 10
These two are equal, so we can write and solve:
2/3e = r - 10
2/3e + 10 = r
Putting this in initial equation, we have:
e + (2/3e + 10) = 70
5/3e + 10 = 70
5/3 e = 60
e = 36
And rulers is:
r = 2/3(36) + 10 = 34
Hence, he had 36 erasers in the beginning
Answer:
x > -3
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 6 < 15
-3x < 15 - 6
-3x < 9
-x < 3
x > -3
You have to use distributive property then you combine like terms
Answer:
1 pink marble
Step-by-step explanation:
If Jamie selected 10 times the pink marble in a total of 420 tries, we can assume that the proportion of pink marble in the total number of marbles is:
10 / 420 = 1/42
So to predict a good number of pink marbles in the total 40 marbles, we just need to multiply the 40 marbles by the proportion found above:
pink marble = 40 * (1/42) = 0.9524
As this number needs to be a whole number, a good assumption is that there is 1 pink marble in the 40 marbles.
