Peter is at a lumber yard. He gets 2 free boxes of nails for every 10 boards he buys. Write an expression for the number of boxe

s of nails Peter will get if he buys n boards. If each box has 100 nails, explain how to write an expression to find how many nails Peter will have if he purchases 90 boards.

A. The number of 10-boards Peter bought is equal to n divided by 10. Then, each of the 10-boxes will get two boxes of nails. The number of boxes of nails that Peter will have after buying n boards will be,

    N = (2)(n/10)

Simplifying,

<em>   N = n/5</em>

b. If the number of boards are 90 then,

     N2 = (90/10)(2)(100 nails/box)
     N2 = 1800

Answer: 1800

The exact answer is:

The algebraic expression n/10, where n is the number of boards, represents the number of times he gets 2 free boxes of nails. So 2(n/10), or n/5, is the number of boxes, and 100(n/5), or 20n, is the number of nails. Substituting 90 in for n,

Answer:

D. 6 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First add the like fractions.

3 2/3 + 2/3 = 3 4/3 (Don't worry about simplifying yet)

Now find the least common multiple for 3 4/3 and 1 3/4 so we can add them.

<h2>REMEMBER: You can only add and subtract fractions when they have the same denominator.</h2>

3: 3, 6,  9, 12

4: 4, 8, 12

In this case 12 is the least common multiple.

3/4 x 3/3 = 9/12    9/12

4/3 x 4/4 = 16/12

Add those two fractions then add the whole numbers and put it in front.

4 25/12

Simplify

6 1/12

Data on average high temperatures​ (in degrees​ Fahrenheit) in July and precipitation​ (in inches) in July for 48 cities is used
wel

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The regression equation to predict amount of precipitation​ (in inches) in July from the average high temperatures​ (in degrees​ Fahrenheit) in July is as follows:

PRECIP​ = 2.0481​ + 0.0067 HIGH

(1)

The value of the slope of the regression line is, 0.0067.

(2)

The predictor variable in this context is the average high temperatures​ (in degrees​ Fahrenheit) in July.

(3)

The response variable in this context is the amount of precipitation​ (in inches) in July.

(4)

The slope of a regression line is average rate of change in the dependent variable with one unit change in the independent variable.

The slope here is 0.0067.

This value implies that the average rate of change in the amount of precipitation​ (in inches) in July increases by 0.0067 inches with every 1°F increase in the average high temperatures​.

(5)

Compute the mount of precipitation for a city that has an average high temperature in July of 87.31°F  as follows:

PRECIP​ = 2.0481​ + 0.0067 HIGH

             = 2.0481​ + 0.0067 × 87.31°F

             = 2.633077

             ≈ 2.63 inches.

Consider this equation: -2x - 4 + 5x = 8 Generate a plan to solve for the cariable. Describe the steps that will be used.
nordsb [41]
We are given the function –2x – 4 + 5x = 8 and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:

-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.

3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.
