Answer:
40 rubber bands are needed
5 rubber bands will be left from 5 bags of of rubber band
Step-by-step explanation:
Each student will need five rubber bands.
There are eight students
Total rubber bands needed = rubber bands per student × number of students
= 5 × 8
= 40
Total rubber bands needed = 40
Rubber bands come in bags of nine.
Number of bags needed = Total rubber bands needed / number of rubber bands in each bag
= 40 / 9
= 4.44 bags
It is impossible to get decimal number of rubber bands bag, so, the next whole number after 4 is 5
5 rubber bands bags will be bought which = 5 × 9
= 45 rubber bands
Only 40 rubber bands are needed
Left over rubber bands = 45 - 40
= 5 rubber bands
I just took the test the answer is 9 cm.
Lila did it correctly. The answer is 324
Following PEMDAS, we first focus on the parenthesis. So we simplify 9-3 to get 6
So we go from
18*4^2+(9-3)^2
to
18*4^2+6^2
The next step is applying exponents. In this case, squaring the terms, so we go from
18*4^2+6^2
to
18*16+36
Next is multiplying
18*16+36
turns into
288+36
Finally, add up 288 and 36 to get 288+36 = 324
That confirms that Lila is correct
----------------------
The error that Rob made is that he computed 18*4^2+9^2-3^2 but it is NOT correct. Saying (x-y)^2 = x^2-y^2 isn't a true equation for all x and y. Again you have to simplify what is in the parenthesis first, and then you can square it. Or you must use the FOIL rule to expand out (9-3)^2
Nvm wait I read the question wrong. The real answer would be 28, 28, 36
