We have been given the steps to solve the equation as
Step 1: 2x = 18
Step 2: x = 18 − 2
Step 3: x = 16
There is an error in step 2.
We have
x is in multiplication with 2. So in order to get rid of 2 from the left hand side, we perform opposite operation of multiplication i.e. division.
So we must divide both sides by 2.
Therefore, A is the correct option.
A) She did not divide 18 by 2.
Answer:
4.19 ft ^3 or A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6×10⁶ cubic feet
30:1
Step-by-step explanation:
Water goes over Niagara Falls at a rate of 180 million cubic feet every hours.
Now, 180 million cubic feet ≡ 18×10⁷ cubic feet
and hours =30 minutes.
As the water is falling at a constant rate, hence, the unitary method of calculation can be applied.
Therefore, in 1 minute, the amount of water that goes over the falls will be
18×10⁷/30 =6×10⁶ cubic feet.
So, the amount of water passing over the falls is reduced in the ratio 30:1. (Answer)
