"measures to the nearest tenth of a pound" tell us to round each of the weights listed to the nearest tenth (since the unit is already pounds, no conversion is needed). What this means is if the second number to the right of the decimal is 5 or greater, then we add 1 to the first number to the right of the decimal (and replace the second number with a zero). With all this said, it's much easier to show you, rather than to try to explain it. :D

4.35 is rounded up to 4.4 because the second number to the right of the decimal is 5.
Packet A = 4.4
Packet B = 4.4 
Packet C = 4.5
Packed D = 4.4
The question is asking what the heaviest reading will be, so from the whole list above we pick the highest number which is 4.5 pounds. Notice how the answer is not Packet C, or 4.48 pounds, but 4.5 pounds. It is asking for the reading, not the packet, nor the weight. Hope this helps.

Giselle works as a carpenter and as a blacksmith.
seropon [69]

Step-by-step explanation:

$20/hr carpenter pay

$25/hr blacksmith pay

Let c = hours working carpentry

Let b = hours working as blacksmith

c + b = 30 {equation 1}

20c + 25b = 690 {equation 2}

In equation 1 solve for one variable in terms of the other.

c = 30-b

Substitute that into equation 2:

20(30-b) + 25b = 690

600 - 20b + 25b = 690

5b = 90

b = 90/5

b = 18 hours working as a blacksmith

c = 30-b = 30-18 = 12 hours as a carpenter

PLZ HELP ASAP! IM FAILING SO PLEASEEEE
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: B

You can find slope by using the slope formula. Because we are already given two coordinate points, we can use that to find our slope. The slope formula is \frac{y^{2}-y^{1}  }{x^{2}-x^{1} }. This also refers to \frac{5-(-5)}{0-4} or 10/-4 or -5/2. Any coordinate with the x-value as 0 means that that coordinate is the y-intercept. Because (0,5) has 0 as its x-value, the y-intercept is 5.
