<u>Part 1)</u> Use the fact that there are 12 inches in a foot
a) How many inches tall is a 7 foot basketball player?
we know that
1 foot=12 inches
so by proportion

therefore
<u>the answer Part 1a) is</u>

Part b) If a yard is a 3 feet long, how many inches are in a yard?
we know that
1 yard=3 feet
1 foot=12 inches
so
Convert 3 feet to inches
by proportion
therefore
<u>the answer Part 1b) is</u>

<u>Part 2) </u>At the farmer's market two pounds of peaches cost $4.20 How much will five pounds cost?
by proportion
therefore
<u>the answer Part 2) is</u>

<u>Part 3) </u>Janice mother gave her a ten dollars bill to buy five pounds each of bananas and apples at the grocery store. When she got there she found that bananas were 80 c per pound and apples were $1.40 per pound.
Did Janice's mother give her enough money? If so, should she receive any change? If not, how much more money does she need?
we know that
<u>Find the cost of the bananas</u>

<u>Find the cost of the apples</u>

Sum the cost of the bananas and the cost of the apples

------> Janice's mother didn't give her enough money
She needs more money
She needs-------> 
therefore
<u>the answer part 3) is</u>
She needs
more
Answer:
-28 + -1 = -29
-14 + -2 = -16
-7 + -4 = -11
-4 + -7 = -11
-2 + -14 = -16
-1 + -28 = -29
1 + 28 = 29
2 + 14 = 16
4 + 7 = 11
7 + 4 = 11
14 + 2 = 16
28 + 1 = 29
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, set an equation:
First Number: x
Second Number: 2x
x+2x=36
3x=36
divide both sides by 3
x=13
First Number: (x) 12
Second Number: (2x) 24
