A cardboard box, which weighs 0.6 pound when empty, is filled with 15 bags of beans and a 4-pound bag of rice. The total weight

of the box and the contents inside it is 25.6 pounds. One way to represent this situation is with the equation 0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6. 1.In this situation, what does the solution to the equation represent? 2.Select all equations that are also equivalent to 0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6. Equation A: 15b + 4 = 25.6 Equation B: 15b + 4 = 25 Equation C: 3(0.6 + 15b + 4) = 76.8 Equation D: 15b = 25.6 Equation E: 15b = 21

Answer:

Equation E, Equation B, Equation C are equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6

Check all that applies

Equation A: 15b + 4 = 25.6

0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6

15b + 4 = 25.6 - 0.6

15b + 4 = 25

NOT CORRECT

Equation B: 15b + 4 = 25

0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6

15b + 4 = 25.6 - 0.6

15b + 4 = 25

CORRECT

Equation C: 3(0.6 + 15b + 4) = 76.8

0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6

Multiplying both sides by 3

(0.6 + 15b + 4) ×3 = 25.6 × 3

(0.6 + 15b + 4) ×3 = 76.8

CORRECT

Equation D: 15b = 25.6

0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6

NOT CORRECT

Equation E: 15b = 21

0.6 + 15b + 4 = 25.6

15b = 25.6 - 0.6 - 4

15b = 21

CORRECT

Equation E, Equation B, Equation C are equivalent

The median rainfall during a spring storm in the lowlands is about 4 mm less than a spring storm in the highlands. The mean rain
mariarad [96]
There is a difference because in the spring, there may be more days of rain, therefore that would increase the mean for the spring compared to the other days.

How would you find the slope of the line containing the points P(4, 9) and R(57, 73)?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Slope is defined as the difference in the vertical axis divided by the difference in the horizontal axis, going left to right (s = dy/dx).  P has a lesser x co-ordinate, so it will be R - P in this case, giving us (ry - py) / (rx - px):

s = \frac{{\Delta}y}{{\Delta}x}

s = \frac{73 - 9}{57 - 4}

s = 64/53

What can you tell about a triangle when vibe three side lengths
ale4655 [162]

Answer:All you have to do is use the Triangle Inequality Theorem, which states that the sum of two side lengths of a triangle is always greater than the third side. If this is true for all three combinations of added side lengths, then you will have a triangle.

Hope it helps...
