To determine the new amount you need to find out what 2/3 of 4 1/2 is equal to. What you see "of" in an algebraic expression or equation, replace it with (×).

2/3 of 4 1/2 =
2/3 × 4 1/2 =

Convert 4 1/2 to an improper fraction.

2/3 × 9/2 =

Now multiply and reduce

18/6 = 3

The new amount of dog food is 3 cups.

What is the surface area of the cube below?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

150 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube has all equal sides. This one has five units for every side.

There are 6 faces here, and 4 vertices for every face.

The equation would look like this 6 x side^2.

Which would also equal to 6 x 5^2.

If you do this, you will find that the answer is 150 units^2.

How do you do that?????
Elden [556K]
This question is easy once you understand. So when adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing with whole numbers you turn it into a fraction. So 12 is going to become 12/1. 8 1/8 is a mixed number so we have to turn it into an incomplete fraction. Here is how you do it. Multiply the denominator by the who number. So 8 x 8 = 64. Then you add your product to the numerator, which will make it 65. Then after this you keep your denominator giving you 65/8. Now we have to find the common denominator by finding the LCM. So the LCM is 8. Next we divide the old denominator by the new denominator. So 1 goes into 8, 8 times. And next 8 x the numerator. so 8 x 12 = 96. We do the same to the other side. Now we have 96/8 - 65/8 = 31/8. Finally we make this a mixed number. So 31 divided by 8. So you should get 3 7/8. 

I hope this helps! :)

5. You are making your Halloween costume this year. You have 6 yards of fabric and the pattern says that you need to cut it in t
REY [17]

Answer:

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total yards of fabrics = 6 yards

you need to cut it in two pieces where one is two feet longer than the other.

First piece= x feet

Second piece= x+2 feet

Convert 6 yards to feet

6 yards = 18 feet

First piece + second piece = total piece of fabrics

x + (x+2) = 18

x + x + 2 = 18

2x + 2 = 18

2x = 18 - 2

2x = 16

Divide both sides by 2

x = 16 / 2

x = 8 feet

8 feet = 2.66667 yards

x + 2

= 8 + 2

= 10 feet

10 feet = 3.33333 yards

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet

PLZZZ HELP XD WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST WHERE TO PUT THE POINT ON THE NUMBER LINE!!!!!
lana66690 [7]
Every number has its purpose in this case you start  at -3 then the negative sign tells you which way you are going but since we have another negative sign in between the number we go to the right instead of left with that said you put the point in number 4
