Pencils are not attracted to each other through magnetic or gravitational forces. The pencils may appear stationary because the forces of friction between the table and the pencils prevent them from moving. Additionally, the force created by your hands placing the pencils on the table may also keep them in place.
No. They were first created in Europe.
around 1500 maybe before
By the end of the first week of VPK, all children should be holding pencils correctly?
Colored pencils were first developed and made around 1920 by the A.W. Faber company, located in Stein, Germany.
x= # of pencils that cost .45 y= # of pencils that cost .65 So now you need 2 equations for 2 variables: 15= x+y This equation is saying: 15 total pencils bought= pencils that cost .45 + pencils that cost .65 The second equation is: 7.75= .45x + .65y This equation is saying: total money spent (7.75)= price of pencils (.45) times # of pencils + price of pencils (.65) times # of pencils Then you combine these two equations, but first switch around the first equation to look like: y=15-x Then you replace the "y" in the second equation by putting in what y equals the first equation: 7.75= .45x + .65(15-x) Then distribute and solve for x: x = 10 Then enter 10 into the first equation for x to figure out y: y= 15- 10 y= 5 So your answer is-- Ray bought 10 pencils that cost .45 and 5 pencils that cost .65
No. Pencils were not invented in that time. They did wrap graphite in string to use like a pencil. The first pencil was invented in 1666 in Nuremburg, Germany.
A gross of pencils is 144 pencils.
There has never been any lead in lead pencils. The graphite deposit that produced the first pencils was mistakenly thought to be lead. Chemists pointed out the error but the name stuck.
The plural form of the noun pencil is pencils.The plural possessive form is pencils'.Example: I enjoy choosing from the pencils' colors.
288 pencils/36 boxes = 8 pencils per box.288 pencils/36 boxes = 8 pencils per box.288 pencils/36 boxes = 8 pencils per box.288 pencils/36 boxes = 8 pencils per box.
When the graphite deposit that produced the first pencils was discovered, the people thought it was lead. Later, chemists told them it was graphite, a form of carbon, but the 'lead pencil' had already become so popular that the name persists to this day.
