Answer:

7boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

A box can hold a maximum of 8 cans

You have a total of 50 cans

The problem here is to determine the minimum number of boxes that can hold the 50 cans

Let the minimum number of boxes = y

The minimum required will be such that:

The Product of The number of cans X Number of Required boxes ≥50

8y≥50

y≥50/8

y≥6.25

Since a box have a fractional value, the minimum number of boxes required to store 50 cans will be the nearest whole number which in this case is 7.

Helga [31]

Answer:

\frac{1}{8} of the phones in office has both a speaker phone and a conference-call capability

Step-by-step explanation:

Since total number of phones in the office is not given, the answer will be "in that terms".

let it be x

So built in speaker phones is (1/4)x

Hence conference call phones would be (1/2)(1/4x) = (1/8)x

Hence "1/8th of the phones in office has both a speaker phone and a conference-call capability"

Rewrite the given expression in the form 3^u where u is a constant or an algebraic expression.
lawyer [7]
Simplifying the given expressions we proceed as follows:
(5sqrt3)^x
=5^x*(3^1/2)^x
=5^x*3^x/2
=5^x3^u
where u=x/2


(1/2)^(x-3)
=1/2^(x-3)
=2^-(3-x)
=2^u
where u=-(3-x)

9/3sqrt(3)
=3/(3)^(1/2)
=3(3)^(-1/2)

16/(3sqrt (2^x))
=1/3*(2^4*2^(-x/2))
=1/3*2^(4-x/2)
=1/3*2^u
where:
u=4-x/2
