Rose has 5 times as many stickers as John. They have 300 stickers in all. How many more stickers does Rose have than John? Show
kirill115 [55]

5x+x=300

6x=300

x=50

5(50)=250 (Rose)

x=50(John)

Rose has 250 stickers and John has 50, therefore Rose has 200 more stickers than John.

Perform the indicated computation. Write the answer in scientific notation. 12x10^4\3x10^−2
Paul [167]

Let us consider the given expression:

\frac{12 \times 10^{4}}{3 \times 10^{-2}} in the scientific notation.

= \frac{12 \times 10^{4} \times 10^{2}}{3 }

[Using the law of exponents, which states

a^{m} \times a^{n} = a^{m+n} ]

= \frac{12 \times 10^{6}}{3}

On dividing, we get

= 4 \times 10^{6}

Hence, it is the required scientific notation of the given expression.

Answer:

  a. x, x+2, x+4

  b. 10 ≤ 3x+6 ≤ 24

  c. 6 ft, 8 ft, or 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  • The lengths of the sides of a certain triangle, in feet, are consecutive even integers.
  • The perimeter of this triangle is between 10 feet and 24 feet inclusive.

<u>Find</u>:

  a. Using one variable, write three expressions that represent the lengths of the three sides of the triangle.

  b. Write a compound inequality to model this problem.

  c. Solve the inequality. List all possible lengths for the longest side of the triangle.

<u>Solution</u>:

You have let x represent the shortest side. (Note that the question asks for the length of the longest side.)

a. The expressions for side lengths can be x, x+2, x+4 when x is the shortest side.

__

b. Here is the compound inequality

  10 ≤ x+(x+2)+(x+4) ≤ 24

__

c. Here is the solution

  10 ≤ 3x+6 ≤ 24 . . . . collect terms

  4 ≤ 3x ≤ 18 . . . . . . . subtract 6

  4/3 ≤ x ≤ 6 . . . . . . . . divide by 3

<em>Your working is correct, but incomplete</em>. The values of interest are the even integers x+4.

  5 1/3 ≤ x+4 ≤ 10

The longest side may be 6 ft, 8 ft, or 10 ft.

I don’t know how to solve this it’s exponents.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

9^6

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing exponents with the same base, we subtract the exponents

a^b/ a^c = a^(b-c)

9^11/9^5 = 9^(11-5)

              = 9^6

there are 48 students in a school play. the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7. how many more girls than boys are in the school play?
Alex Ar [27]
We can use trial or error method here...

If we take 4 table, 4*5 = 20 and 4*7 = 28. 20+28 = 48.
20 : 28 = 5 : 7

So, there are 20 boys and 28 girls in a school play and there are 8 girls more than boys.

If you look over tables and try it out, only 4 table works for the given ratio.
