a Potter uses 3/5 of a pound of clay to make a bowl. how many bowls could the Potter make with 10 pounds of clay?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Divide 10 pounds by 3/5 to find the number of bowls he can make. $(10)/( (3)/(5) ) = (50)/(3)$ . but since he can't make a partial bowl, we round down, meaning that the potter makes 16 bowls.

PLEASE HELP ONLY GOT 2 MINUTES LEFT !!!John has a goal to ride his bike 100 miles this summer. John has ridden 12 miles thus far. There are only 40 days left in summer. Write a inequality to represent the average distance, d, in miles, John must ride each day for the rest of summer

Answers

Answer:

y $\geq 2.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

John wants to complete at least 100 miles. he has completed 12 which means he only has 88 left. If you divide 88(miles left) by 40(time left) you get 2.2 miles. so he would need a minimum of 2.2 miles a day to bike 100 miles.

Answer:

12 + 40d ≥ 100

Sue buys 5 pieces of fabric.Each piece is 1 7/10 yards long.What is the total length of the fabric she buys?One yard of the fabric costs $5.How much does she pay for all 5 pieces of fabric?

Answers

Answer:

1. 8.5 yards.

2. $42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Sue buys 5 pieces of fabric. Each piece is $1(7)/(10)$ yards long.

1. To find the total length of fabric bought by Sue we will multiply length of each fabric piece by 5.

$\text{Total length of the fabric}=5* 1(7)/(10)\text{ yards}$

$\text{Total length of the fabric}=5* (17)/(10)\text{ yards}$

$\text{Total length of the fabric}=(17)/(2)\text{ yards}$

$\text{Total length of the fabric}=8.5\text{ yards}$

Therefore, Sue bought 8.5 yards of fabric.

2. 1 yard of fabric costs $5.

So 8.5 yards of fabric will cost : 5*8.5

$\text{Total cost of the fabric}=5* 8.5$

$\text{Total cost of the fabric}=42.5$

Therefore, the cost of total fabric bought by Sue is $42.5.

Jasmine sold half of her Barbie doll Collectionand then bought 9 dolls. She now has 13 dolls.
Barbie dolls did she begin with?
How many

Answers

Answer: 8 dolls.

Explanation: 13 - 9 = 4, 4 x 2 = 8.

Work the equation backwards... she has bought 9 extra dolls to add on the the half of her original amount. Without the extra 9 dolls (13 - 9), Jasmine has half of her original amount left (4) and so to find the original amount of dolls, think that if 4 is half the amount, what is 4 half of? 4 is half of 8 and so 8 is the original amounting dolls she had.

Hello,
answer B

y+2=(4+2)/(-3-5)(x-5)
==>y+2=-3/4 (x-5)
==>4y=-3x+7
==>3x+4y-7=0

X + y = 155x - y = 9

(4, ? )

what number is the ?

Answers

The ? Is 11.

You add the equations to get rid of one variable, then you have 6x=24 then you divide both sides and you have x=4, then you substitute the given value of x and you are left with 5*4 - y = 9. And the solution or well possible solution is y = 11 which gives youuuuu. (x , y) = (4 , 11)

4 + y = 15....1
20 - y = 9.....2

....1*5
20 + 5y = 75....3

....3 - .....2
4y = 60
y = 15

the answer for (?) is 15

A vehicle travels a distance of 5t4 − 10t2 + 6 miles in t + 2 minutes. What is the vehicle's speed?

Answers

Let distance be s and velocity be v
s = 5t⁴ - 10t² + 6
We know velocity is the change in distance per unit time, so
v = ds/dt
v = 20t³ - 20t

Answer:

The speed is 5t^3 - 10t^2 + 10t - 20 + 46/(t+2) miles per minute
