Answer: they have 68 servings of ice cream left for the party
Step-by-step explanation:
The Smiths purchased 6 containers of ice cream for a party. Each container holds 9 cups of ice cream. This means that the total number of cups of ice cream that they have is
6 × 9 = 54 cups
Before the party, their sons ate 3 cups of ice cream altogether. This means that the number of cups of ice cream that they have left is
54 - 3 = 51 cups
One serving is 3/4 cup of ice cream. This means that the number of serving that they have left is
51/0.75 = 68
6j + 1/3n = 134...multiply by 3....18j + n = 402
1/3j + n = 31....multiply by 3....j + 3n = 93
the multiplying by 3 is optional...I just did it because it is easier to work with equations when there are no fractions.
18j + n = 402....multiply by -3
j + 3n = 93
----------------
-54j - 3n = - 1206 (result of multiplying by -3)
j + 3n = 93
----------------add
-53j = - 1113
j = -1113/-53
j = 21
j + 3n = 93
21 + 3n = 93
3n = 93 - 21
3n = 72
n = 72/3
n = 24
so Jasons collection (j) consists of 21 books and Nathans collection (n) consists of 24 books
Answer:
<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let's solve (1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x</u>
(1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x
9/48 / 1 1/2 = 9/48 * 2/3 = 18/144
18/144, we can simplify dividing by 18 at the numerator and the denominator, this way:
x = 18 ÷ 18/ 144 * 18 = 1/8
<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>
Answer:
y = 12^8
Step-by-step explanation:
Log base 12, y^2 = 16
y2 = 12^16
y = sqrt ( 12^16) = (12^16)^1/2
y = 12^8
