Jacob had some candy to give to his five children. He first took six pieces for himself and then evenly divided the rest among his children. Each child received three pieces. With how many pieces did he start?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 21
Explanation:5(3)+6=21
Answer 2

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if each of his 5 children got 3, then there were 15 candies before he divided them. And to get before he took 6 candies for himself, add 6 to 15 to get 21

P.S. Jacob is greedy. He took a lot of candy

Answers

Answer:

(8,1) (15,2) (22,3) (29,4) (36,5) (43,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y=7x+1 is written in slope intercept form. That would be:

y=mx+b

m is the slope

b is the y intercept, or where the line first is seen on the y axis.

Because b=1, the y intercept is 1.

Because m=7, the slope is 7.

STEP 1: GRAPH THE Y INTERCEPT.

Since b=1, the line crosses the y intercept when y=1. So graph y=1 on the coordinate plane.

STEP 2: GRAPH THE SLOPE

Do this by going up 7, then right 1. Because 7 is a positive number, you go up.

the point of M ( a, 4 ) is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoint at A(1,3) and B(5,b). Find the value of a and b

Answers

The value of a and b from the coordinates are 3 and 5 respectively

Midpoint of coordinates

The formula for finding the midpoint of two coordinates is expressed as;

M(x, y) = {x1+x2/2, y1+y1/2}

Given the following coordinates

M(a, 4)

A(1,3)

B(5,b)

Using the formula

a = 1+5/2

a = 6/2

a = 3

Similarly

4 = 3+b/2

8 = 3+b

b = 8-3

b = 5

1. A light bulb is one-hundredth of an inch thick, with an allowable error of 2%. What is the least allowable thickness of the filament?
A. 0.00098
B. 0.0002
C. 0.0098
D.0.0102

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

0.00998 Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Thickness of the light bulb filament = 0.01 Inch

Allowable error = 2%.

2% of 0.01 = 0.02 X 0.01 =0.0002 Inch

Therefore, the allowable thickness of the bulb filament

We can then calculate the least allowable thickness of the filament as:

The least allowable thickness of the filament is 0.00998 Inches.

Answer:

C. 0.0098

Explanation:

one-hundredth of an inch: 1/100 ≈ 0.01 (inch)

Upper-bound (maximum error):

= 0.01 × (100% + 2%)

= 0.01 × 102%

= 0.0102 inches

Lower-bound (minimum error):

= 0.01 × (100% - 2%)

= 0.01 × 98%

= 0.0098 inches

Hence, the greatest allowable thickness of filament is 0.0102 inches and mostly the least allowable thickness is 0.0098 inches, which is the answer.

d.  3x + 6 = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Definitions

Integer:  a whole number that can be positive, negative or zero.
e.g. ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...Even number: an integer that is exactly divisible by two.  For example, 2, 4, 6, 8 are all positive even numbers.Consecutive: following one after the other in order.

The sum of three consecutive even integers

Let x be the first even integer.

As there is a difference of 2 between consecutive even integers, the next even integer after x will be (x + 2).

Therefore, the next even integer after (x + 2) will be (x + 2) + 2 = (x + 4).

So "the sum of three consecutive even integers is twenty-six" is:

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 26

To solve

⇒ x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 26

⇒ x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 26

3x + 6 = 26

(Please note that there are no three consecutive even integers that sum to 26, so the problem cannot be solved).

John has decided to prepare an old field for his son's new horse. the length of the field is 10 meters less than 4 times its width. He will spend $1,584 on fencing for the field at a cost of $4.80 per meter. He also needs to buy sweetgrass seed to plant in the field. The seed costs $3.98 per bag and each bag covers 460 square meters. If John has $1,600, is this enough money to purchase the fence and all the seeds needed to plant in this field?

Answers

Answer: The total money invested in the field will be $1,623.80

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the dimensions of the field

Let

x -----> the length of the field

y -----> the width of the field

p=2(x+y)

p(4.80)=1,584

p=330m

we know that

The perimeter of the field is equal to

so

330=2(x+y)----> equation A

x=4y-10 ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

330=2(4y-10+y)

165=(5y-10)

5y=165+10

y+35

Find the value of x

x=4(35)-10+130

therefore

The length of the field is 130 meters and the width of the field is 35 meters

step 2

Find the area of the field

The area of the field is

A=xy

substitute

A=(130)(35)=4,550m2

step 3

Find the number of bags of seed

Divide the area by 460

4,550/460=9.89 bags

Round up to the nearest whole number

9.89 bags=10 bags

step 4

Find the cost of the seed

(10 )(3.98)=$19.8

step 5

Find the total money invested in the field

1,584+$39.8=$1,623.80

The area of the garden was 2¾yd². If the length is 1 ½ yd, find
the width.

Answers

Answer:

11/6 or 1 5/6yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = Length x Width

2 3/4 = 1 1/2 w

11/4 = 3/2w  to change 2 3/4  into an improper fraction see this as 2 wholes plus 3/4.  Another name for 2 wholes is 8/4 then add the 3/4.  8/4 + 3/4 is 11/4.

Do the same for 1 1/2 which is 1 + 1/2 change 1 into 2/2 and add it to 1/2 which would be 3/2.

Now solve for x

(2/3) (11/4) = (3/2) (2/3) w  when I multiply 3/2 by its reciprocal of 2/3, I get the number 1 and 1 times w is just w.

22/12 =w.  I just multiplies the tops with the bottoms.  Now, divide the top and the bottom by 2 and you end up with 11/6.  If I divide 11 by 6, it will go into 11 one time with 5 left over.  The denominator remains 6.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area A of a rectangle of length L and width W is A = L*W.  Solving this for W, we get A/L.

Substituting 2 3/4 yd^2 for A and 1 1/2 yd for L, we get:

W = (2 3/4 yd)^2 / (1 1/2 yd)

This is equivalent to (11/4 yd^2 divided by (6/4 yd), or 11/6 yd.

The width of this garden is 11/6 yard, or 1 5/6 yard.

Find the area
of the figure.

Answers

Answer:

first the triangle

t area=b x h ÷2

=(5ft x 10.5ft)÷2

=26.25ft sq unit

second the rectangle

r area=L × b

=9ft × 7.5ft

=67.5ft sq unit

last the triangle

t area= b×h÷2

=(9ft×4.5ft)÷2

=20.25ft sq unit

Total area= 26.25ft+65.5ft+20.25ft =112ft sq unit

Answer:

110.25 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the area of the figure by adding up the areas of three different shapes.

1) The right triangle

The formula for finding the area of a right triangle is: Base x Height x 1/2

The base in the right triable is 5 and the height is 9.

--> 5 x 9 x 1/2

--> 45/2

--> 22.5

2) The rectangle

The formula for finding the area of a rectangle is: Base x Height

The base is 7.5 and the height is 9.

--> 7.5 x 9

--> 67.5

3) The Isosceles Triangle (On the very right)

The formula for finding the area of a right triangle is: Base x Height x 1/2

The base of the triangle is 9, and the height is 4.5.

--> 9 x 4.5 x 1/2

--> 40.5/2

--> 20.25

Now that we know the areas of separate shapes, all we need to do is add them up!

22.5 + 67.5 + 20.25

= 110.25.

The area of the figure is 110.25 ft^2
