A sheet of standard-size copy paper measures 8.5 in. by 11 in. If a ream (500 sheets) of this paper has a volume of 187(to the third power) in. , how thick is the ream. I need an explanation on how to do it please.

Explanation:

The area of any given sheet of paper is 8.5*11 = 93.5 square inches.

Divide the volume over this area to get the height of the stack

187/(93.5) = 2

The stack is 2 inches tall.

Extra info: The thickness of each piece of paper is 2/500 = 0.004 of an inch which approximates to about 0.1016 mm.

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0

hi there!

question 1 answer: p/q can be terminating when q = 5^m * 2^n

question 2 answer: -1 and -1

question 3 answer: -4

question 4 answer: 5/12

hope this : )
