Answer:
her supply has 18 pounds

Explanation:
Assume that the number of pounds in her supply is x.
We are given that:
She uses 1/3 x in salted mix and 2/9 x in unsalted mix.
This means that:
Total amount used = 1/3 x + 2/9 x = 5/9 x of her supply

Now, we are also given that:
She used 10 pounds of her supply.
This means that:
5/9 x = 10
5x = 9*10 = 90
x = 18 pounds

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The answer is 18 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3=6/18 and 2/9=4/18 add these 2 fractions together to get 10/18 therefore she used 10 pounds but had 18 pounds of sunflower seed supply in total. Have a good day:)

Hey I’m struggling with number 13 so please show your work. Thx

Answer:

$\frac{5}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Because $\frac{3}{5}$ is being multiplied by S, we can divide $\frac{3}{5}$ from both sides of the equation. This will give us:

$\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{5}$

But, that looks a bit hectic. Instead of dividing, you can multiply by the reciprocal (which is essentially how to divide fractions). So, instead of $\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{5}$ , you get:

$\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{5}{3}$

When multiplying fractions, remember you can just multiply straight across-- numerator x numerator, then denominator x denominator.

By doing that, you get the fraction $\frac{5}{12}$

$\frac{5}{12}$ cannot be simplified any more, so S= $\frac{5}{12}$ is your answer :)

I hope this helps
