Question:

Lynn is making custom bricks. She combines 39 pounds of water and 48 pounds of brick dust in a mixing bucket. She spills 13 pounds of the mixture while stirring the contents. The mixture is then poured into small dirt holes to make bricks. Each brick requires 7 pounds of mixture, and the leftover mixture is washed out of the mixing bucket.

What is the greatest number of bricks Lynn can make?  

How many pounds of mixture will be washed out of the bucket if Lynn makes the greatest  number of bricks?

Greatest number of bricks = 70

Washed out mixture = 4 pounds

Therefore, Lynn can make at most 70 bricks and 4 pounds of mixture will be washed out if she makes 70 bricks.

Step-by-step explanation:

She combines 39 pounds of water and 48 pounds of brick dust in a mixing bucket.

Amount of mixture = 39 pounds of water + 48 pounds of brick dust

Amount of mixture = 87 pounds

She spills 13 pounds of the mixture while stirring the contents.

Amount of mixture left = 87 pounds - 13 pounds

Amount of mixture left = 74 pounds

Each brick requires 7 pounds of mixture

What is the greatest number of bricks Lynn can make?  

Greatest number of bricks = 7×10

Greatest number of bricks = 70

How many pounds of mixture will be washed out of the bucket if Lynn makes the greatest  number of bricks?

Washed out mixture = 74 pounds - 70 pounds

Washed out mixture = 4 pounds

Therefore, Lynn can make at most 70 bricks and 4 pounds of mixture will be washed out if she makes 70 bricks.

yes

step-by-step explanation:

they have to be opposite and reciprocal of eachother.

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
