Answer:
3/8 of the box
Step-by-step explanation:
On Friday Merinda uses 1/4 of the box of pancake mix to make pancakes.
On Saturday she uses 1 1/2 times as much pancake mix as Friday.
On Friday = 1/4 of the box
On Saturday = 1 1/2 × pancake mix as Friday

Hence, 3/8 of the box of pancake mix does Merinda use on Saturday.
To find the slope of the above equation, it is easiest to put it into slope-intercept form, y=mx + b, where the variable m represents the slope. To do this, we must isolate the variable y on the left side of the equation by using the reverse order of operations. First, we should subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.
3x + 6y = 9
6y = -3x + 9
Next, we should divide both sides of the equation by 6 to undo the coefficent of 6 on the variable y.
y = -1/2x + 3/2
Therefore, the slope of the line is -1/2 (the coefficient of the variable x in slope-intercept form).
Hope this helps!
Answer:
14 or also 1 year 2 months
Answer:
fraction 1 and 3 over 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2:3 is equal to 8 blocks
5:12 is equal to 5 blocks
if you divide them, the result is:
8/5 which is the same as 1 3/5
because 5 is contained 1 time in 8 and the rest is 3
Answer: The garden has dimensions 30 ft wide X 60 ft long
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote by W the width of the garden and L the length of the garden (longer side) as in the figure attached. The red sides on the figure represent the parts of the garden that require fencing.
L is also the measure of a vertical side of the garden, because a rectangle consists only of vertical and horizontal sides.
We know that the barn is parallel to the longer (vertical) side, so only one of the vertical sides L of the rectangle needs fencing. The other two parts correspond to the horizontal sides of the rectangle so they require 2W feet of fencing. Altogether, the 120 ft of fencing enclose the L+2W ft of the fence, then 120=L+2W. Because the longer side is twice the width, we have that L=2W, so 120=2W+2W=4W. From here, W=30 ft and L=2(30)= 60ft.
