I believe it is 2.33 repeating
The weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4
<h3>What is the ratio?</h3>
It is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.
We have:
A greedy hamster hoarded 2 piles of sunflower seeds. Yesterday the ratio of the seeds in these piles was 3:4
Let 3x and 4x are the seeds from the smaller and bigger pile.
= 4x + 2 (greedy hamster placed another 2 pounds of seeds in the bigger pile)
= 3x - 1/4 (ate 1/4 pound from the smaller pile)
4x + 2 = 5x
Because the quantities of seeds in those piles is in the ratio of 5:16
After solving:
x = 2
Smaller pile weight = 3x = 3(2) = 6
Bigger pile wieght = 4x = 4(2) = 8
Thus, the weight of each pie will be 6 and 8 pounds respectively if the ratio of the seeds in these piles 3:4

Part 1
<h3>Answer: 13</h3>
---------------------
Explanation:
We'll replace every copy of x with -3. Then use PEMDAS to simplify.
f(x) = -2x+7
f(-3) = -2(-3)+7
f(-3) = 6+7
f(-3) = 13
===========================================================
Part 2
<h3>Answer: -11</h3>
---------------------
Explanation:
We work backwards in a sense compared to what part 1 did. Instead of finding f(x) based on x, we determine what x must be for a given f(x).
We'll replace f(x) with 29 and solve for x like so
f(x) = -2x+7
29 = -2x+7
-2x+7 = 29
-2x = 29-7
-2x = 22
x = 22/(-2)
x = -11
Note how if you replaced x with -11, we'd get,
f(x) = -2x+7
f(-11) = -2(-11)+7
f(-11) = 22+7
f(-11) = 29
which helps confirm we have the correct answer.
