Maxi is trying to stack books on a shelf that is 18 inches tall. If the books are each 4/5 inch thick, how many can she stack?

1 answer:

7 0

I believe it should be 22½ or 22 books

You would need to divide 18 and ⅘

18 ÷ ⅘ = 22½

I hope this helps, even though I’m not totally sure :)

1) Billy walks 15 miles every day to soccer practice, and catches a ride home from his grandma. Billy had 5 practices last week.

1 ) Billy walks 15 miles every day to soccer practice and he had 5 practices last week.

We know that, 1 mile = 1760 yards

So, 15 miles = (15× 1760) yards = 26400 yards

Thus the total distance walked in 5 practices will be: $(26400*5)yards = 132000 yards$

2) Mark's current age is $t$ years

So, his age was in 10 years ago $=(t-10)years$

Given that, his current age is 3 times his age 10 years ago.

So, the equation to represent this situation will be : $t= 3(t-10)$

Solve the following inequality 9x−2>43

MrRissso [65]

Answer: x > 5

Explanation: First we want to look at our variable and ask ourselves what's happening to it. Since 2 is being subtracted from 9x, we always undo addition and subtraction first so we add 2 to both sides.

That gives us 9x > 45.

Now we need to undo multiplication and division. Since 9 is being multiplied by x, to get x by itself, we need to divide by 9 on the left side of the inequality. If we divide by 9 on the left side, we must also divide by 9 on the right side.

This leaves us with x > 5 which is the solution to this inequality.
