Answer: 4h 30min

Step-by-step explanation: Theoretically, if X= Number of hours required to paint the room,

X(1/6+1/18)=1

X(3/18+1/18)=1

X(4/18)=1

X(2/9)=1

2/9X=1

X=9/2h, or 4 1/2 h

What is the equation for <br><br> 6/7 - 1/8=
miv72 [106K]
Another way to put 6/7 - 1/8 is 48/56- 7/56 since the LCM of 7 and 8 is 56 (if you don’t know what that is I can explain it) sorta like subtraction you subtract both numerators (48 and 7 or 48-7) which gives you 41 then you put the denominator (56) below that. So in other words it equals 41/56

Emery bought 3 cans of beans that had a total weight of 2.4 pounds. If each can of beans weighed the same amount, which model co
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

  • y=0.8x
  • See Explanation for others

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 cans of beans had a total weight of 2.4 Pounds

Therefore:

  • 1 can of beans = (2.4 ÷ 3) =0.8 Pounds

The following applies from the options.

  • y=0.8x where y is the weight and x is the number of cans.
  • A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of cans with entries 5, 15, 20. Column 2 is labeled total weight (in pounds) with entries 4, 12, 16.

Using y=0.8x

When x=5, y=0.8 X 5=4

When x=15, y=0.8 X 15=12

When x=20, y=0.8 X 20=16

\left|\begin{array}{c|c}\text{Number of Cans,x}&\text{Total Weight (in Pounds),y}\\-------&--------\\5&4\\15&12\\20&16\end{array}\right|

  • On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled number of cans and the y-axis is labeled total weight (in pounds. A line goes through points (5, 4) and (15, 12). This can be clearly seen from the table above as (5,4) and (15,12) are points on the line.
