For every egg you can make 4.5 cupcakes so you will need 8 small eggs because 8 times 4.5 equals 36

How would I solve the equations: y = x-4 and y=x^2-4x using substitution

andriy [413]

Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

y = x - 4

26 = 4x + y

If y = y, then we can rewrite this system as this: 4x + x - 4 = 26

Then we combine like terms and add 4 on both sides to give us 5 x = 30 . Divide by 5 on both sides and we arrive at the solution: x = 6

Ron walks 0.5 mile on a track in 10 minutes. Stevie walks 0.25 mile on the track in 6 minutes find the unit rate for each walker

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Ron's speed = 3 miles/hour

Stevie's speed = 2.5 miles/hour

On comparing we see Ron is walking faster than Stevie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ron takes 10 minutes to walk on a track to cover a distance of 0.5 miles

Stevie takes 6 minutes to walk on a track to cover a distance of 0.25 miles

To find their unit rates in mile per hour and choose the faster one.

Solution:

Unit rate in miles per hour signifies their speeds. Thus, we will find out their speeds.

Ron:

Distance= 0.5 miles

Time = 10 minutes = $10\ min\times \frac{1\ hr}{60\ min}=\frac{1}{6}$ hours

Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{0.5}{\frac{1}{6}}=0.5\times6=3\ miles/hour$

Stevie

Distance = 0.25 miles

Time = 6 minutes = $6\ min\times \frac{1\ hr}{60\ min}=\frac{1}{10}$ hours

Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{0.25}{\frac{1}{10}}=0.25\times10=2.5\ miles/hour$

Thus, we have

Ron's speed = 3 miles/hour

Stevie's speed = 2.5 miles/hour

On comparing we see Ron is walking faster than Stevie.

Nikki has 3 pieces of yarn. the first piece is 5/6 feet long the second piece is 5/3 feet long and the third piece is 3/2 oder s

xenn [34]

I think you are asking to sort them according to the shortest to longest in length. For this, it would be helpful to write the fraction into decimal. The equivalent values are as follows:

5/6 = 0.83
5/3 = 1.67
3/2 = 1.50

Therefore, the correct sorting would be as follows:

first yarn
third yarn
second yarn

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Sophie has 3/4 quart of lemonade. if she divides the lemonade into glasses that hold 1/16 quart, how many glasses can Sophie fil

Studentka2010 [4]

I think 4 glasses because 3/4 divided by 1/16 is 48/4 because you flip the second fraction and multiply after u simplify
