Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

a. 2 lb 11 oz, b. 7 T 1,992 lb 12 oz , c. 38 lb 14 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we need to understand is the conversions.

1 T = 2,000 lb

1 lb = 16 oz

Knowing this, there are many ways to find out the answer, please see below the one I used; I converted all measure units to oz, subtracted the amounts, and finally converted the units back to their original ones.

a. 5 lb or (16 oz*5) - (2 lb or (16 oz*2) + 5 oz) = 80 oz - 37 oz = 43 oz = 2 lb 11 oz

b. (17 T or (2,000 lb*17) + 13 lb + 3 oz) - (9 T or (2,000 lb*9) + 20 lb + 9 oz) = (34,013 lb or (16 oz *34,013) + 3 oz) - (18,020 lb or (16 oz *18,020) + 9 oz) = 544,213 oz - 288,329 oz = 255,884 oz = 7 T 1992 lb 12 oz

c. (68 lb or (16 oz*68) + 13 oz) - (30 lb or (16 oz*30)+15) = 1,117 oz - 495 oz = 622 oz = 38 lb 14 oz

James works in a flower shop he will put 36 tulips in vases for a wedding he must use the same number of tulips in each vase how many tulips could be in each vase

Answers

Okay, so this is just like division. What you have to do is figure out, "If there are 36 flowers, how many vases should their be?" Study the 36 for a minute and think of a number that can be multiplied by the same number that would equal 36. (hint: it's between 2 and 7) Good luck!

find the circumference of the base face:
$(3*2) \pi$
that is 18.84
then you multiply that by 4
which is 75.36
the answer is 75.36 ft^3

The volume of a cylinder is the area of the base (π r^2) times the height (h). So it's V = π r^2 h. HOPE I HELPED

Jack has a fair coin. He tosses the coin four times. What is the probability that Jack gets heads, then heads, then tails, and then tails?

Answers

As you have a 1/2 chance of getting what you want when you flip the coin, to get heads, heads, tails, tails will be 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2. Working our way down the line, 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4, 1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8, and 1/8 x 1/2 = 1/16. Jack will get heads, heads, tails, tails 1/16 of the time.

the answer is 1/16..........
