Ken has 7 baseballs. Each baseball weighs 0.3 pound. Ken wants to use this model to find the total weight of the baseballs. Each hundredths block in the

model represents 1 whole.

Use the drop-down menus to explain how Ken can use the model to find the total

weight of the baseballs. Click the arrows to choose an answer from each menu.

To represent the weight of one baseball, 0.3 pounds, Ken should shade 3

Choose...

To represent the weight of all of the baseballs, he should

shade this amount Choose... times. The shaded part of the model will represent

the expression Choose... The total weight of the baseballs is 7.3

pounds

My Progress

2.1 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of baseballs = 7

Weight of each baseball = 0.3 pounds

1 block = 0.1 pounds

Hence, each ball will represent 0.3 / 0.1 = 3 blocks

Hence, 3 blocks = 1 ball

7 balls will be : 3 * 7 = 21 blocks

Recall:

1 block = 0.1

Hence, 0.1 * 21 = 2.1

Therefore, the weight of the 7 balls = 2.1 pounds

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

x - 3

discussion:

x^2 - 9 = (x-3) (x+3)   so

(x^2-9)/ (x + 3) = x-3
