Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Length of railroad car = 6 inches
The length of railroad track = 5 feet
We will convert this length into inches.
1 feet = 12 inches
5 feet = 12*5 = 60 inches
Let,
x be the number of cars.
Number of cars * Length of each car = Length of track
Dividing both sides by 6
10 cars can fit on railroad track.

Answer:
- leading coefficient: 2
- degree: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...
6, 0, 7, 1
The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:
2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4
The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.
Answer:
5x + 32 < 50
Step-by-step explanation:
On a particular airline, bags checked in must weigh less than 50 pounds. Betty packed 32 pounds of clothes and five gifts that weigh the same amount.
If each gift weighs w pounds, then the weight of five gifts will be 5w pounds and an additional 32 pounds of clothes will make it total (32 + 5w) pounds.
Now, this total weight has to be less than 50 pounds.
Therefore, the inequality equation that can be used to find the possible weight of each gift, w is
5x + 32 < 50 (Answer)
