Answer: there are 59059 lbs of gravel.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a mixture of concrete, there are four lbs of cement mix for each pound of gravel. This means that eight lbs of cement would be mixed for 2 pounds of gravel and 12 lbs of cement would be mixed for 3 pounds of gravel and 12. Therefore, the constant ratio of cement to gravel is 4:1
The total ratio is 4 + 1 = 5
If the mixture contains a total of 295295 lb of these two ingredients, then the number of pounds of gravel that are there is
1/5 × 295295 = 59059 lbs

Answer: -8 and -4
This is something you do through trial and error. Making a list or a table like shown below might help.
<em>1) 5 c + 4 = - 26
5 c = -26 -4
5 c = -30
c = -30 / 5
c = -6 so correct option is B..
2) 3 x - x +2 = 12
2 x +2 = 12
2x = 12-2
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x= 5 so correct option is D
3 ) 3 ( x + 1 )+ 6 = 33
3x + 3 + 6 = 33
3x + 9 = 33
3x = 33-9
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8 so correct option is B
4) y/-6=9
y=9 x -6
y= - 54 there is no such option i guess question is missing
5)(x + 4) /2 = 7
x +4 = 7 x 2
x + 4 = 14
x = 14-4
x = 10 so correct option is D
6)1/3 ( 2x - 8) = 4
2x/ 3 - 8 /3 = 4
2x - 8 / 3 = 4
2x - 8 = 4 x 3
2x - 8 = 12
2x = 12 + 8
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10 so correct option is C
