2 tons and 500 pounds is equivalent to 1 ton equals 2000 pounds. So 2 tons equal 2(2000) = 4000 pounds. Add this to 500 pounds, we get: 4000 + 500 = [B]4,500 pounds[/B].

A large storage container is filled with 44.9 quarts of water. One quart of water is equivalent to 32 fluid ounces. How many fluid ounces of water are stored in the container? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. 44.9 quarts * 32 fluid ounce / quart = 1,436.8 if we found to the nearest whole number, we round up since 0.8 is greater than 0.5, so we get: [B]1,437 fluid ounces[/B]

a package of soccer accessories costs $25 for cleats, $14 for shin guards , and $12 for a ball. Write two equivalent expressions for the total cost of 9 accessory package. Then find the cost. Let c be the number of cleats, s be the number of shin guards, and b be the number of balls. We have the following cost function for 9 accessory packages: [B]9(25c + 14s + 12b)[/B] But if we multiply through, we get an equivalent expression: [B]225c + 126s + 108b[/B]

Jeff Bezos, who owns Amazon, has a net worth of approximately $143.1 billion (as of mid-2018). An employee in the Amazon distribution center earns about $13 an hour. The estimated lifespan of the employee is 71 years. If the employee worked 24 hours a day, every day of the year from the moment of his birth, how many lifespans would it take for him to earn wages equivalent to Jeff Bezos' net worth? Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Calculate earnings per lifespan: Earnings per lifespan = lifespan in years * Annual Earnings Earnings per lifespan = 71 * 13 * 24 * 365 <-- (24 hours per day * 365 days per year) Earnings per lifespan = 8,085,480 Calculate the number of lifespans needed to match Jeff Bezos earnings: Number of lifespans = Jeff Bezos Net Worth / Earnings Per Lifespan Number of lifespans = 143,100,000,000 / 8,085,480 Number of lifespans = [B]17,698.39 ~ 17,699[/B]

The expression (5x - 2)/(x + 3) is equivalent to which of the following? [LIST] [*]A) (5 - 2)/3 [*]B) 5 - 2/3 [*]C) 5 - (2/(x + 3)) [*]D) 5 - (17/(x + 3)) [/LIST] Let's start with an integer x = 2. Plug that into our original expression, and we get: (5(2) - 2)(2 + 3) (10 - 2)/5 8/5 So what we do next is, take x = 2, and plug it into answer choices A-D, and see which one results in 8/5 A) 3/3 = 1 <-- Nope B) Since 5 is 15/3, we have 15/3 - 2/3 = 13/3 which is over 4, so Nope C) 5 - (2/(2 + 3)) = 5 - (2/5). Since 5 is 25/5, we have 25/5 - 2/5 = 23/5. <-- Nope D) 5 - (17/(2 + 3)) = 5 - 17/5. Since 5 is 25/5, we have 25/5 - 17/5 = 8/5 <-- YES Since 8/5 = 8/5, our answer is [B]D) 5 - (17/(x + 3))[/B]

When 3 consecutive positive integers are multiplied, the product is 16 times the sum of the 3 integers. What is the difference of the product minus the sum? Let the 3 consecutive positive integers be: [LIST=1] [*]x [*]x + 1 [*]x + 2 [/LIST] The product is: x(x + 1)(x + 2) The sum is: x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 3x + 3 We're told the product is equivalent to: x(x + 1)(x + 2) = 16(3x + 3) x(x + 1)(x + 2) = 16 * 3(x + 1) Divide each side by (x + 1) x(x + 2) = 48 x^2 + 2x = 48 x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 Now subtract the sum from the product: x^2 + 2x - 48 - (3x + 3) [B]x^2 - x - 51[/B]

You have 30 DONUTS. 1/6 of them are Boston Cream. 2/5 of them are Maple. 3/10 of them are Chocolate Dip and 1/3 are Sprinkled. IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?? How many donuts OVER or UNDER am I? (Show your work and use EQUIVALENTS.) We use 30 as our common denominator. Let's get [I]equivalent fraction[/I]s for each donut type with a denominator of 30: [LIST] [*][URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/equivalent-fractions.php?num=1%2F6&pl=Equivalent+Fractions']1/6[/URL] = 5/30 [*][URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/equivalent-fractions.php?num=2%2F5&pl=Equivalent+Fractions']2/5 [/URL]= 12/30 [*][URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/equivalent-fractions.php?num=3%2F10&pl=Equivalent+Fractions']3/10[/URL] = 9/30 [*][URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/equivalent-fractions.php?num=1%2F3&pl=Equivalent+Fractions']1/3[/URL] = 10/30 [/LIST] Add up our numerators of the common denominator of 30: 5 + 12 + 9 + 10 = 36 So our fraction is 36/30. This makes our scenario [B]impossible[/B]. Fractions of the donut should add up to 1. Which would mean our numerators need to sum to 1 or less. Since 36 > 30, this scenario is [B]impossible.[/B]
