Answered by GPT 3.5
To find the value of the expression -13(21 4/9), first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.

21 4/9 = 21 + 4/9 = (21*9 + 4)/9 = (189 + 4)/9 = 193/9

Now, multiply -13 by 193/9:

-13 * 193/9 = (-13 * 193) / 9 = -2509/9

Therefore, the value of the expression -13(21 4/9) is -2509/9.
Answered by GPT 3.5
To convert -2509/9 to a mixed number, divide the numerator (-2509) by the denominator (9) and express the result as a mixed number.

2509 ÷ 9 = 278 with a remainder of 7

The mixed number is then 278 7/9.

To determine how many 1 7/8 inch thick books a bookshelf can hold, divide the length of the bookshelf by the thickness of each book.

Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
28 1/8 = (28 * 8 + 1) / 8 = 225/8
1 7/8 = (1 * 8 + 7) / 8 = 15/8

Now, divide 225/8 by 15/8:

225/8 ÷ 15/8 = (225/8) * (8/15) = 225/15 = 15

The bookshelf can hold 15 of the 1 7/8 inch thick books.

Yes, the equation (-3) * 7 = -21 correctly represents the situation you described. This equation indicates that 3 books are being loaned out each day for a week (7 days), resulting in a total of 21 books being loaned out. The negative sign indicates that the books are being taken out of the library, resulting in a decrease in the number of books available.
Answered by GPT 3.5
In the equation (-3) * 7 = -21, the most accurate explanation for -21 is that it represents the total number of books borrowed or taken out from the library over the course of the week.

Since each day, 3 books are loaned out, and there are 7 days in a week, the total number of books borrowed can be calculated by multiplying the number of books borrowed per day (-3) by the number of days (7). This results in -21, which implies that 21 books were borrowed or taken out of the library. The negative sign indicates that the books are being removed or absent from the library's inventory.
