Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the number we're looking for. Then ...
n × (proteus length) = 3 × (palustris length)
n × 0.7 mm = 3 × 4.9 mm
n = (3 × 4.9 mm)/(0.7 mm) = 3 × 49/7 = 3 × 7
n = 21
You would have to line up 21 amoeba proteus to equal the length of three pelomyxa palustris.
Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find two expressions that, when simplified, give the same results.
1) First, simplify the expression stated in the question. Multiply each of the terms in the parentheses by the number that is next to them. This would mean you have to multiply both 9x and -6 by
. You also have to multiply
and
by 4. Then, simplify.

2) Now, combine the like terms.


So, we need to find which of the expressions listed equal 8x - 6.
3) Let's try option A. Do the same as before. Multiply each of the terms in the parentheses by the number that is next to them. So, multiply 4x and -12 by
. Also, multiply 30x and 18 by
. Then, combine like terms and simplify.

This also equals 8x - 6. Therefore, option A is the answer.
Answer:
12 dimes and 18 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations given by word problem:
n + d = 30
0.05n + 0.1d= 2.10
How I solved them:
d= 30 - n
0.05n + 0.1(30 - n)= 2.10
0.05n + 3 - 0.1n= 2.10
-0.05n= -.09
Divide both sides by -0.05
n= 18
18 + d = 30
d= 12
Answer:
3.) x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s plug it into our equation
2(10) + 1 = 21
21 is greater than 15
Sheila is incorrect! I think what she did is think the 38 was actually a 35, which WOULD of made her statement true, but since it's 38, she's very incorrect. Sheila should be using the quotient for the size of each piece. 38 divided by 5 is 7.6. The correct answer is 7.6 inches.
