You need to haul a load of patio bricks to a job site. Each brick weighs 4 pounds 14 ounces. Truck can carry a 3/4 - ton load. H

Olin [163]

Answer:

339 bricks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the weight of each brick and what the truck can support. Therefore what we must do is pass all to the same unit of measurement to calculate the quantity of bricks.

In this case we will pass everything to pounds.

We have that a 1 pound is 16 ounces, therefore 14 would be:

14 ounces * 1 pound / 16 ounces = 0.875 pounds

In addition we have that 1 ton is 2204.62 pounds, therefore 3/4 would be:

3/4 ton * 2204.62 pounds / 1 ton = 1653.467 pounds

Therefore, in total the brick weighs 4,875 pounds (4 + 0.875) and the truck can support 1653,467 pounds, the number of bricks would be:

1653.467 / 4.875 = 339.17

In other words, it can support about 339 bricks.

How do i use properties of exponents

STatiana [176]

You can use the properties of exponents in three ways: Products of Power and Power to Power

Explanation:

Product of a Power: When you multiply exponentials with the same base, you add their exponents

Power to a Power: When you have a power to a power, you multiply the exponents.
Quotient of Powers: When you divide exponentials with the same base, you subtract the exponents.

Given: PS=RT, PQ=ST<br> Prove: QS=RS

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

I) Eq(1) reason: sum of segments of a straight line

II) Eq(2) reason: Given PQ = ST & PS = RT

III) Eq(3) reason: sum of segments of a straight line

IV) Eq(4) reason: Same value on right hand sides of eq(2) and eq(3) demands that we must equate their respective left hand sides

V) Eq(5) reason: Usage of collection of like terms and subtraction provided this equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that;

PS = RT and that PQ = ST

Now, we want to prove that QS = RS.

From the diagram, we can see that from concept of sum of segments of a straight line we can deduce that;

PQ + QS = PS - - - - (eq 1)

Now, from earlier we saw that PQ = ST & PS = RT

Thus putting ST for PQ & PS for RT in eq 1,we have;

ST + QS = RT - - - - (eq 2)

Again, from the line diagram, we can see that from concept of sum of segments of a straight line we can deduce that;

RS + ST = RT - - - - -(eq 3)

From eq(2) & eq(3) we can see that both left hand sides is equal to RT.

Thus, we can equate both left hand sides with each other to give;

ST + QS = RS + ST - - - (eq 4)

Subtracting ST from both sides gives;

ST - ST + QS = RS + ST - ST

This gives;

QS = RS - - - - (eq 5)

Thus;

QS = RS

Where are white blue and red boat in the Marina three fourths of the boats in the Marina are white for seventh of the remaining

xeze [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question used in answering this question :

Three-fourths of the boats in the marina are white. 4/7 of the remaining boats are blue , and the rest are red . If there are 9red boats, how many boats are in the marina?

We first have to determine the fraction of the boats that are red

1 - ( $\frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{4}{7}$ )
