Tam needs a total of 2 pounds of vegetables for a soup recipe.
He already has 2/3 pound of carrot and 1/4 pound of celery

how many more pounds of vegetables does he need to buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 1/12 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3+1/4-2=-1 1/12

Answer 2
your answer would be 1 and 1/12. to get how many pounds he has already you need to find a common denominator, that denominator would be 12. so 2/3 turns into 8/12 and 1/4 turns into 3/12. add them together you get 11/12 which isn’t one pound yet. to get 1 pound you add 1/12 of a pound more. to get 2 pounds add 1 pound. since he didn’t have that 1 pound yet or that 1/12 of a pound yet they go together (1 and 1/12)

Answers

50 people would be expected to show up on day 7.

Each day the number of people goes up by four people, 46 + 4 = 50

Therefore there would be 50 people by day 7.
Answer: B

If you look at the number of people, you can see by how many days go by the number of people go up by +4. So, by the seventh day there should be 50 people because 46 + 4 = 50

Therefore,

14+15 = 29+16 = 45+18 = 63+20 = 83+21 = 104+22 = 126

The composite numbers between 13 and 23 are;

14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, and 22.

Hence, the sum of these numbers is 126.

Write an exponential growth function to model each situation,
15. Initial value: 20
Growth factor: 1.25

Answers

Answer: f(x)=20(1.0125)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula P(1+r)^t when considering exponential growth (make it 1-r if decay)

P - principal (initial) value

r - growth rate (as a decimal! so divide by 100)

t - time (can be years, months, days, etc)

so now that we know the formula, just plug in everything you know!

P=20, r=0.0125, t=x

so the function is

20(1+0.0125)^t or 20(1.0125)^t

since we dont have a defined time, that becomes the variable for x, the one we can manipulate, so if they ask for 10 years, just replace t with 10!

4x - 2(x - 2) = -9 + 5x - 8

Answers

Answer is x = 7

Step by step

4x -2(x - 2) = -9 +5x -8
Distribute

4x -2x +4 = -9 +5x -8
Combine

2x + 4 = 5x -17

Subtract 5x from both sides to isolate variable

2x -5x +4 = 5x -5x -17
Combine

-3x +4 = -17

Subtract 4 from both sides to combine constants

-3x +4 -4 = -17 -4
Combine

-3x = -21

Divide both sides by -3 to solve

-3/-3 x = -21/-3

x = 7

Answer: I'm not 100% sure what you're asking for, but the full answer to the last question is a .25 increase or a 25% increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to see how much it increases.

We would take 1.50, and minus 1.25 from it to get our first answer of .25.

To get the percentage of increase, we would take our .25, and times it by 100 equaling 25%.

On the last question it’s a .25 increase so it’s going to be 25% increase.

What is a numerical expression?

A numerical expression is a mathematical statement written in the form of numbers and unknown variables. We can form numerical expressions from statements.

Given, John’s age is 12 more than 2 times Sam’s age. The sum of their ages is 65.

Let, The age of Sam be 'x'.

Therefore, 2x + 12 + x = 65.

3x = 53.

x = 17.66.

So, Sam is 17.66 years old and john is (65 - 17.66) = 47.34 years old.
