Aschool buys a box of staples to refill all 28 staplers in the building. the box has 5,000 total staples and there are 210 staples per strip. 1 strip of staples will be placed in each stapler. are there enough strips of staples to fill all 28 staplers? a) summarize this question in your own words. what is the question asking you to find? b) what math skill is needed to find the answer? c) how many strips of staples are in the box? d) are there enough strips of staples to fill all 28 staplers?

a)  if you have 5000 staples can you fill 28 staplers with 210 staples in each stapler?  and you need to find out if there are enough staples to fill all 28 staplers

b) multiplication and division

c)  ~23

d) No there are not

$27.5

step-by-step explanation:

$110.00 divided by 4

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!
