Answer:

3/8 of the box is left so 6 ounces is left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the 1/4, 2/8 then add 2/8 by 3/8 to get 5/8 then subtract 8/8 by 5/8 to get 3/8 then multiply it by 2 to get 6/16.

So the answer is 6/16 or 6.

Let’s start by converting the fractions into percentages.
1/4=25%
3/8=37.5%
25% of 16= 4
37.5% of 16= 6
4 + 6 = 10
16 - 10 = 6
Answer: 6 ounces

What’s the answer to the top question and steps how to solve?
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

-3.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equations can be solved by taking Ln (natural logarithm) of both sides. The rule we need to know is:

Ln(a^b)=bLn(a)

Now lets work out this problem:

16^{2x+3}=13^{x-1}\\Ln(16^{2x+3})=Ln(13^{x-1})\\(2x+3)Ln(16)=(x-1)Ln(13)

Using calculator, we take the values of Ln 16 and Ln 13 as:

Ln 16 = 2.7726

Ln 13 = 2.5649

Now, we can solve for x:

(2x+3)Ln(16)=(x-1)Ln(13)\\(2x+3)2.7726=(x-1)2.5649\\5.5452x+8.3178=2.5649x-2.5649\\2.9803x=-10.8827\\x=-3.69

x is -3.69 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

If two objects travel through space along two different curves, it’s often important to know whether they will collide. (Will a
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

<em>Both objects collide at t=3 in the point  <9,9,9></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Collision Of Moving Objects </em>

Two objects can describe different trajectories in the space. Those trajectories can intersect in one or more points but it doesn't mean they collide. Collision occurs if they are in the same position at the same time. If we know the positions as a function of time of each object, we could try so find if, for a given time, they are in the same position.

The positions of two object are given as

r1(t)=

r2(t)=

Let's find out if there is at least one value of t that makes both positions to be the same. We can try by equating one of the three coordinates and testing if the value of t make both have the same x,y,z coordinate. Let's try equating the x-components of both

t^2=4t-3

Rearranging

t^2-4t+3=0

Factoring

(t-1)(t-3)=0

We found two solutions

t=1,\ t=3

for t=1 the x-coordinates are

x1=t^2=1

x2=4t-3=1

For t=3

x1=t^2=9

x2=4t-3=9

Now we'll test both values in the y-coordinates

y1=7t-12

y2=t^2

For t=1

y1=-5

y2=1

Thus they don't collide at t=1. Let's try t=3

y1=7(3)-12=9

y2=3^2=9

Now let's try the z-coordinate for t=3

z1=t^2=9

z2=5t-6=9

Since the three coordinates match, we can say both objects collide at t=3 in the point  <9,9,9>
