A block of clay contains twenty 4 - ounce portions of clay. Ceramics teacher wants to use the block to make as many spheres of clay as possible. Each weighing ⅖ pound. How Many spheres can the class make

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

20 x 4 = 80

80 ÷ 16 = 5

5 ÷ 2/5 = 12.5

Answer 2

Using 24 ounce portions of clay, maximum they can make 3 spheres.

Given that, a block of clay contains 24 ounce portions of clay.

What is metric conversion?

Metric Conversion refers to the conversion of the given units to desired units for any quantity to be measured.

We know that, 1 pound = 16 ounces

So, 1 ounce = 1/16 pound

Then 24 ounce = 24/16

= 1.5 pound

Here, each sphere of clay weighing 2/5 = 0.4 pounds

Number of spheres = 1.5/0.4

= 3.75

Maximum 3 spheres

Therefore, using 24 ounce portions of clay, maximum they can make 3 spheres.

pls go do another problem if u dont know how tod this....... Simplify −9+1/4x−6−1/8x show your work

Answers

Answer:

-15 + 1/8x

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the difference

-9 +-6 = -15  then

1/4x -1/8x =1/8x

solution -15+1/8x

How to subtract 1/4x =1/8x   ( this should help )

1/4x -1/8 x    get the least common denominator  which is 2

2x/2x4 -x/8    multiply the numbers

2x/8 - x/8        collect like terms  (factor x/8 as 1/8) 1/8x

-15 +1/8x is the answer

c is the correct one

Answer:

Probably C

Step-by-step explanation:

Repeating Decimal: a decimal where a number or a pattern of numbers repeats forever

For example, 0.2222... or 0.671671....  (The "..." means that it repeats like that forever)

A. 3/7=  0.142857142857142857... (6 repeating digits)  This is a repeating decimal because the last six digits continue forever

B. 3/4=0.75. This number is not a repeating decimal because a repeating decimal goes on forever, while this only has two decimal places.

C. 1/9= 0.11111... This is a repeating decimal because it goes on forever and has a pattern (all are 1s)

D. 5/11=0.454545... This is also a repeating decimal because the last two digits repeat forever.

There is probably something wrong with the question (or your unit) because three of these numbers are, in fact, repeating decimals. If I were you, I would ask your teacher (it gets you respect from the teacher=more chance that they'll be lenient with you)

But if you really don't want to, I would go with "C" because it only has one repeating decimal place, and your curriculum probably says that a repeating decimal is only one digit.

Good Luck! :)

If x-y=6 and x^2+y^2=24, find x^3-y^3.

Answers

Answer:

162.06

Step-by-step explanation:

sorry i'm not the best an explaining but i'm confident in my answer.

the first thing to do is get rid of the ² in x²+y²=24, we do this by √24 which ≅4.90 (i rounded to the hundreth place)

then we have this

x-y=6

x+y=4.90

I am using the elmination method. To do that you need to get two letters to have the same coefficient (in 4x 4 is the coefficient) with oposite signs (one possitive one negitive)

In our equation here we see that the same coefficient is 0, and there is oposite signs for y. Therefore we can add the two equations and get

2x=10.9 (the y cancels out)

now we have a simple equation and all that is left is to solve it

10.9/2=5.45

x=5.45

Now we need to find y we do that by pluging the x value into one of the equations I choose the first one becasue its easiest.

(5.45)-y=6  

y= - .55

now that we have both x and y plug them into the final equation (5.45)³-(-.55)³= 161.89-(-.17) =162.06

Therefore x³-y³≅162.06!

(if you have any questions or would like to debate the answer please let me know!)

Complete the table using the equation y = 4x + 8.

Answer: Grant did not regroup the 4 tens when he subtracted 7.

Everything else he did was correct! When got down to the bottom he made a mistake.

Because there was a zero, grant should have token away from the 4 in which it would become a 3 and given to the 0 so it would become a 1. Due to the fact that he did not do this he got it wrong.

You earn $56 walking your neighbor's dog for 8 hours. Your friend earns $36 painting your neighbor's fence for 4 hours.
What is your pay rate? And What is your friend's pay rate?

Answers

Answer:

Your pay rate is:  

$ 7  per hour

Your friend's pay rate is  :

$ 9  per hour

Explanation:

So if it takes you  8  hours to make  $ 56 , you can just divide the total money earned by the time.  So it would be  56 ÷ 8  which is  7 .

And if takes your friend  4  hours to make  $ 36 , you can divide like we just did . So it would be  36 ÷ 4  which is  9 .

So you make  $ 7  per hour and your friend makes  $ 9 per hour.

you would divide 56 by 8 to get 7. which is your pay rate. Then you would divide 36 by 4 to get 9. which is your friends pay rate.
