Sam studied guinea pigs for his science fair project. He found that the amount of weight the guinea pigs gained varied directly

with the number of calories they consumed. The guinea pigs gained 1 ounce for every additional 218 calories in their diet. How many additional ounces would they gain if their diet was increased by 1,090 calories? Let W represent the weight in ounces, and let C represent the number of calories.

From the given above, we can formulate the equation:

W = C / 218

By substituting the given values:

W = 1090 calories / (218 calories / 1 ounce)

W = 5 ounce

<span>Therefore the guinea pigs will gain additional 5 ounce if the diet was increased by 1090 calories.</span>

nignag [31]
Another quadrilateral that you might see is called a rhombus. All four sides of a rhombus are congruent. Its properties include that each pair of opposite sides is parallel, also making it a parallelogram. In summary, all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.

Becky and luke bought the same kind of pencils and erasers . Becky spent $1.45 for 2 pencils and 3 erasers . Luke spent $2.65 fo
ivann1987 [24]

Answer: the cost of each pencil is $0.5

the cost of each eraser is $0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one pencil.

Let y represent the cost of one eraser.

Becky spent $1.45 for 2 pencils and 3 erasers. This means that

2x + 3y = 1.45- - - - - - - - - -1

Luke spent $2.65 for 5 pencils and 1 eraser. This means that

5x + y = 2.65- - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

2x + 3y = 1.45

15x + 3y = 7.95

Subtracting, it becomes

- 13x = - 6.5

x = - 6.5/- 13

x = 0.5

Substituting x = 0.5 into equation 2, it becomes

5 × 0.5 + y = 2.65

2.5 + y = 2.65

y = 2.65 - 2.5

y = 0.15
