I am assuming that the attached is the complete question and we need to get the information from the table.

From the table we know the below fact:

1 \; small \; container \; of \; potato \; salad \; Weighs \; \frac{2}{8} \; pounds\\\\1 \; extra \; large \; container \; of \; potato \; salad \; Weighs \; \frac{9}{8}  \; pounds

Weight \; of \; 6 \; small \; container = 6 \times \frac{2}{8}  = \frac{12}{8}  \; pounds\\\\Weight \; of \; 2 \; Extra \; large \; container = 2 \times \frac{9}{8} \; = \; \frac{18}{8}  \; pounds

Conclusion:

The difference in weights, in pounds of Kim’s and Seth’s purchases is given below:

\frac{18}{8} - \frac{12}{8} =  \frac{18-12}{8}   = \frac{6}{8}  \\\\Simplifying \; the \; fraction \; dividing \; by \; 2 \; on \; both \; numerator \; and \; denominator\\\\ \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2}  = \frac{3}{4}

Final answer : <em><u>0.75 pounds</u></em>

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=-\dfrac{44}{3}=-14\dfrac{2}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x-117=10x+59\qquad|\text{add 177 to both sides and subtract}\ 10x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-2x-10x-117+117=10x-10x+59+117\\\\-12x=176\qquad|\text{divide both sides by (-12)}\\\\\dfrac{-12x}{-12}=\dfrac{176}{-12}\\\\x=-\dfrac{176:4}{12:4}\\\\x=-\dfrac{44}{3}
