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>

Alysha’s average speed when walking home from the market was 5 mph, and it takes her 21 minutes longer than when she drives to t
Delicious77 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Alysha's time to drive home from the market.

Speed and time are inversely proportional to each other (for the same distance), so we have ...

  (walking speed)(walking time) = (driving speed)(driving time)

  5(x +21) = (8·5)(x)

  x +21 = 8x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  21 = 7x . . . . . . . . subtract x

  3 = x . . . . . . .divide by 7

It takes Alysha 3 minutes to drive home from the market.

Mr. Rush wants to store 20.5 cups of spaghetti sauce in containers. Each container holds a maximum of 2.5 cups of sauce. What is
Natali5045456 [20]

The answer is 9

Explanation:

We know the total amount of spaghetti sauce is 20.5 cups; additionally, each container can be filled with a maximum of 2.5 cups of this sauce. In this context, the process to know the number of containers Mr. Rush needs to store all the sauce is to divide the total amount by the amount each container can hold.

20.5 cups of sauce ÷ 2.5 cups per container = 8.2 containers

This means 8 containers can be completely filled and a ninth container is required to hold the small amount of the sauce missing (0.2)
