16 ounces = 1 pound
>> 1 ounce = (1/16) pound
>> 152 ounce = (1/16)x152 pound
>> 152 ounce = 9.5 pound

So the final answer is <u>9.5 pound</u>

First make a comparison
pound : ounce = 1 : 16
pound : ounce = x : 152

The ratio
x : 152 = 1 : 16
x/152 = 1/16

Second, find x with the help of the ratio
x/152 = 1/16
move 152 to the right side, it become multiplication
x = 1/16 × 152
x = 152/16
x = 9.5

Hence, 152 ounces is 9.5 pounds

Can you help me to solve this problem
storchak [24]

Answer:

I want to show you how to do this as well, the formula you are working with is a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) 8^2+b^2=12^2

64+b^2=144

subtract 64 from both sides

b^2=80

take the square root of 80 and you get

b= 8.9

if you need more help on this let me know, I am going to list the other answers now because to do it all and show work on here is a lot of typing, all of which I will do if you do not understand the first example. Also the c value can ONLY BE THE HYPOTENUSE VALUE. The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle. For example, 12 would be the C value on number one and in number two it would be 15.

2.) 14.5

3.) 10.3

4.) 18.8

5.) 8

6.) 15
