A farmer harvested 192 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes and 138 pounds of russet potatoes. He divided the Yukon Gold potatoes evenly among 8 baskets. He divided the russet potatoes evenly among 6 baskets. He then filled a sack with one basket of Yukon Gold potatoes and one basket of russet potatoes. Which equation could be used to solve for n, the number of number of pounds of potatoes the farmer put in the sack?

n = 330 ÷ 14

n = 192 × 8 + 138 × 6

n=192÷8−138÷6

n = 192 ÷ 8 + 138 ÷ 6

d. 8

step-by-step explanation:

the given radical expression is:

we can rewrite this as:

we express as square numbers to get;

the exponents will now cancel out to give.

the correct answer is d

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}
