You should be able to do that with a calculator though.
In a theatre room, there are 4 rows of chairs. There are 4 columns of chairs. How many chairs are there in the theatre room?
4x4=16
There are 16 chairs in the theatre room.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 52 cards in a deck and 13 cards of each suit.
The probability of picking a diamond in a complete deck of cards is:
Or the probability is 13 put of 52.
Since you took out 1 diamond card already there would be only 51 cards left and 12 diamond cards left. So you would have a probability of:
If we simplify it you will have a probability of:
The inverse of this function is y = x - 
You can find the inverse of any function by switching the x and y values and then solving for the new y value. Once you've done that, what will be left over is the inverse function.
y = 
----> Swap x and y
x = -----> Subtract 3/4 from both sides.
x - = y ----> rearrange to appropriate order
y = x -
And that is your inverse function.
Answer: <u>4 pounds</u> of brand X sugar
====================================================
Reason:
n = number of pounds of brand X sugar
5n = cost of buying those n pounds, at $5 per pound
Brand Y costs $2 per pound, and you buy 8 lbs of it, so that's another 2*8 = 16 dollars.
5n+16 = total cost of brand X and brand Y combined
n+8 = total amount of sugar bought, in pounds
3(n+8) = total cost because we buy n+8 pounds at $3 per pound
The 5n+16 and 3(n+8) represent the same total cost.
Set them equal to each other. Solve for n.
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5n+16 = 3n+24
5n-3n = 24-16
2n = 8
n = 8/2
n = 4 pounds of brand X sugar are needed
-------------
Check:
n = 4
5n = 5*4 = 20 dollars spent on brand X alone
16 dollars spent on brand Y mentioned earlier
20+16 = 36 dollars spent total
n+8 = 4+8 = 12 pounds of both types of sugar brands combined
3*12 = 36 dollars spent on both types of sugar brands
The answer is confirmed.
--------------
Another way to verify:
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5*4+16 = 3(4+8)
20+16 = 3(12)
36 = 36
