Answer:
Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.
Step-by-step explanation:
Weight that Jon gained in December = 2.2 kilograms
Weight that Jon lost in January = 1.5 kilograms
Weight that Jon lost in February = 3.7 kilograms
Overall Change in his weight = Total Weight he gained - Total weight he Lost
Total weight he gained is 2.2 kilograms as he only gained weight in December. Total weight he lost will be sum of weights he lost in January and February.
So, total weight Jon lost = 1.5 + 3.7 = 5.2 kilograms
Thus,
Total change in Jon's Weight = 2.2 - 5.2 = -3.0 kilograms
This shows that Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.
Conclusion:
The statement that best describe the total change in his weight is: Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months
Answer:
20 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
Cups of sugar in a bag = 15
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie = 3/4 cup
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 3/4 : 1
what's the greatest number of batches of cookies that can be made with the bag of sugar
Let
x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 15 : x
Equate the ratios
3/4 : 1 = 15 : x
3/4 ÷ 1 = 15/x
3/4 × 1/1 = 15/x
3/4 = 15/x
Cross product
3 * x = 4 * 15
3x = 60
x = 60/3
x = 20
x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar = 20 batches
The correct answer is B, hope this helps
