Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let corn tortillas be represented by c, flour tortillas be represented by f and the total number of packages be t

such that

t = c + f     .... eq 1

ratio of c to t = 7 : 16 = 7/16

Therefore, t = 16,    c = 7

substitute the value of t in eq 1

16 =  7 + f

f = 16 - 7

f = 9

Can someone help me really please
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing number

8\frac{11}{15} = 7\frac{x}{15}

Convert both fractions to improper fractions

\frac{131}{15} = \frac{105 + x}{15}

Cross multiply

15(105 + x) = 15(131)

1,575 + 15x = 1,965

Subtract both sides by 1,575

15x = 1,965 - 1,575

15x = 390

Divide both sides by 15

x = \frac{390}{15}

x = 26

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

20078/243

Step-by-step explanation:

sn = a1-a1r^n/1-r

sn = a1 * 1-r^n/1-r

s7 = 6 * 1 - (-5/3)^7/1-(-5/3)

s7 = 6 * 10039/729

s7 = 6 * 10039/243*3

s7 = 2 * 10039/243

s7 = 20078/243

Find the equation of the line shown. Enter yoir answwr in slope intercept form​
nlexa [21]

Answer:

y = x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for slope is y = mx +b. If you look at the line you see that it passes through the origin, this is your y-intercept, 0. If you look at two points at the line and use the rise over run method, you get the slope to be 1. If you substituent these values into the equation you get, y = x.

Hope this helps!
