The height of a building on a 1/4 inch: 1 foot scale drawing is five inches tall. How tall is the actual building?

By rounding each brother's weight to the nearest whole number and adding these, we get an estimate of 15 pounds. The actual total weight, 15 and one eighth pounds, is close to this estimate, indicating that Lucas' claim about his brothers' weight is reasonable. This demonstrates how estimation can be used to quickly verify the validity of a claim.

Estimation is a valuable mathematical tool that can be used to assess the reasonableness of a solution. In the case of Lucas' twin baby brothers' weight, you can use rounding to estimate their total weight. Let's start by rounding each brother's weight to the nearest whole number. In this scenario, Jackson, who weighs 6 and one fourth pounds could be estimated to weigh 6 pounds, and Jeremy, who weighs 8 and seven-eighths pounds, could be estimated to weigh roughly 9 pounds.

Adding these together gives a total of 15 pounds. The actual weight of the twins, 15 and one eighth pounds, is very close to this estimation, indicating that Lucas' claim about his brothers' weight is reasonable. This approach makes effective use of estimation as a means to quickly and simply verify a given claim's feasibility.

p = 32

Solution:

Given p represents the amount of air pressure in a tire.

t represents the time it takes for the tire to go flat and t = –8.

To find the value of p, if [tex]\frac{p}{t}=-4[/tex].

⇒ [tex]\frac{p}{t}=-4[/tex]

Substitute t = –8 in the above equation.

⇒ [tex]\frac{p}{-8}=-4[/tex]

Do cross multiply, we get

⇒ p = (–8) × (– 4)

⇒ p = 32

Hence, the value of p is 32 if the quotient [tex]\frac{p}{t}[/tex] is –4.

Answer:

The number of comic books did they have in all   = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of comics with Susan : Abe = 3 : 5

Let us assume the common factor on this ratio = m

So, the number of comics Susan has  = 3 m

The number of comics Abe has  = 5 m

Also, given:  Abe had 14 more comic books than Susan

So, the number of comics Abe had  = 14 + 3 m

⇒  5 m  =  3 m + 14

or,   2 m = 14, or m = 7

So, the number of books Susan has = 3 m = 3 x 7 = 21 books

The number of books Abe has  = 5 m = 5 x 7 = 35

So, the book they have in all = 21 +  35 = 56

Final answer:

The correct solution to the equation 5x+10=24-2x is x=2, which is verified by substitution and results in an identity, confirming the solution is accurate.

Explanation:

The equation 5x+10=24-2x is a simple linear equation that can be solved by collecting like terms and isolating the variable x. Begin by adding 2x to both sides to get 7x + 10 = 24, then subtract 10 from both sides to obtain 7x = 14. Dividing both sides by 7 yields x = 2, which is the sole solution to the equation. Checking the solution, 24 - 2(2) does indeed equal 5(2) + 10, giving an identity of 20 = 20. This illustrates the solution is correct and verifies our process.

Answer:

12 geese

10 dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

We are required to determine the number of geese and dogs that Alex counted;

We need to know that;

Assuming he counted x number of geese and y number of dogs;

Then;

x + y = 22, and

2x + 4y = 64

Thus, solving the equation simultaneously;

we can multiply the first equation by 2, to get

2x + 2y = 44

2x + 4y = 64

Eliminating x (by subtracting the second eqn from the first eqn), we get;

-2y = -20

 y = 10

Solving for x;

   x = 22 - y

      = 22 - 10

  x  = 12

Therefore; he counted 12 geese and 10 dogs

The area of the gray portion in the room, after subtracting the area of the central linoleum from the total area of the room, is 112 sq. ft.

To calculate the area of the gray portion in the room, first subtract the area of the linoleum from the total area of the room. The area of the room is given as 12 x 16 sq. ft. and the linoleum is 8 x 10 sq. ft.. To find the total area of the room, multiply the length by the width (12 x 16 = 192 sq. ft.). Then do the same for the linoleum (8 x 10 = 80 sq. ft.). Subtracting the area of the linoleum from the total area of the room gives us the gray area (192 - 80 = 112 sq. ft.). Hence, the area of the gray portion is 112 sq. ft.

If you are trying to find the equation of a line:

The equation of a line is y = mx + b   [m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --->  (0, y)  or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis]

Since you have m = -2, plug it into the equation

y = mx + b

y = -2x + b     To find b, plug in the point they gave you (3, -7)

-7 = -2(3) + b

-7 = -6 + b      Add 6 on both sides

-1 = b               Now that you have b, plug it into the equation

y = -2x - 1

Miranda can solve 1300 divided by 26 by using multiplication – specifically, by finding what number multiplies with 26 to result in 1300. She can break down the number 26 into smaller factors for easier estimation, using inverse operations to eventually find that 50 is the correct answer.

Using Multiplication to Solve Division Problems

Miranda was asked to solve the problem 1300 divided by 26. To use multiplication to solve this division problem, she can apply the reciprocal approach. Essentially, she can multiply 1300 by the reciprocal (the inverse) of 26. The reciprocal of a number 'a' is 1/a, so the reciprocal of 26 is 1/26. However, finding the reciprocal of 26 directly can be challenging, so we can use intuitive steps that simplify the problem.

For example, we could productively think about what number, when multiplied by 26, gives us 1300. This is a form of inverse operations. One way to approach this is to break down 26 into factors like 2 and 13, which might lead to simpler multiples to work with. She may start by estimating and refining her estimations by multiplying different numbers by 26 and seeing how close she gets to 1300. It’s a trial and error process, but eventually, she will find the correct answer of 50, as 26 multiplied by 50 equals 1300.

Answer:

#2 486

#3 25

#4 25

#5 1,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Sequences like this always have some rule that determines the next number, a pattern that needs to be followed. Sometimes the pattern is easy to find, sometimes really hard.

#2 One of the first things to check is the ratio of adjacent numbers. Here we have 2 then 6 then 18 then 54 etc.

The most prominent feature of these numbers is that the next number is always three times bigger than the previous. It's safe to assume that the missing number will be 162 • 3 = 486.

#3 Of course numbers can be arranged in the decreasing order as well. However, that does not change their ratio. In this example, carefully examining, we can see that each number in the sequence is exactly twice smaller than the previous:

800 -> 400 -> 200 -> 100  etc.

Following this pattern, we can say that the next number will be 50 / 2 = 25.

#4 Of course, ratio is not the only way to help us find the pattern. One of the very often used methods is also the difference between adjacent numbers. Let's subtract each adjacent pair:

4 - 1 = 3

9 - 4 =5

16 - 9 = 7

Longer the sequence is, greater are the chances to see the pattern, but from this we could conclude that the difference between adjacent numbers is always an odd number (3, 5, 7). We could say that the next odd number is 9, so the missing number is 16 + 9 = 25

There is another pattern that could be found. This sequence could also represent the sequence of squared numbers:

1^2, 2°2, 3°2, 4^2

In this case, the next number would be 5^2 which is also 25.

#5 Again, we can find a pattern established on the ratio of numbers, but this time with repetitive symbol L. After every L, the number is a thousand times bigger than the previous number:

0.001 -> 1 -> 1000

So, following this pattern, the missing number would be 1000 • 1000 which equals to 1000000 (a million).

Answer:

2 BTUs/cubic foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 2 people exercising in an enclosed room are each generating about 2,400 BTUs of body heat per hour.

So, 2 people will produce (2400 × 2) = 4800 BTUs for 1 hour.

Now, the volume of the room with dimensions (20 ft by 12 ft by 10 ft) will be (20 × 12 × 10) = 2400 cubic feet.

Therefore, the number of BTUs per cubic foot will be produced  by [tex]\frac{4800}{2400} = 2[/tex] BTUs/cubic foot. (Answer)
