Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is -8 because y=4 so 4-12=-8
Starting weight: 5/6 lb. Of this, Jan used 1/5, which would be (1/5)(5/6) lb,
or 1/6 lb, leaving 4/6 lb, or 2/3 lb. unused.
2/3 lb
Now divide 2/3 lb by 8 portions: ----------------- = (2/24) lb/portion, or
8 portions
1/12 lb/portion.
Answer:
Amie should have multiplied 54 by 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the volume of a sphere is given by
, where r is the radius of the sphere.
to find the volume of the sphere, we must find 
We know that the formula of a cylinder of height h and radius r is given by

So 
We know that the sphere and the cylinder have the same height. Recall that the height of the sphere of radius r, is the diameter of a circle that passes through the heighest and lowest points of the sphere. Then, h=2r. This means that

From here, we know that
.
So the volume of the sphere is
.
So Amie should have multiplied 54 by 2/3.
Answer:
1st = 22
2nd = 24
3rd = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
1st = x
2nd = x +2
3rd = x + 4
6(x + x + 4) = 24 + 11(x + 2)
6(2x + 4) = 24 + 11x + 22
12x + 24 = 46 + 11x
x + 24 = 46
x = 22
x + 2 = 24
x + 4 = 26
