we know that

1pound -------> is equal to ------> 16 ounces

So

By proportion

\frac{1}{16}\frac{pound}{ounces} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{pounds}{ounce} \\ \\ x=\frac{1}{16} pounds

therefore

the answer is

one ounce is equal to \frac{1}{16} pounds

Selena was comparing the flying speeds of different birds in science class. Which of the three birds flies fastest? Why?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Option C. The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the time in seconds

y ----> the distance in meters

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

In this problem, the slope or unit rate of the linear equation is the same that the speed

<em>Robin's Flight</em>

<em>Find the slope</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

take two points from the table

(2,30) and (3,45)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{45-30}{3-2}

m=\frac{15}{1}

m=15\frac{m}{sec}

<em>Cardinal's Flight</em>

y=10x

m=10\frac{m}{sec}

<em>Blue Jay's Flight</em>

take two points from the graph

(0,0) and (2,20)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{20-0}{2-0}

m=\frac{20}{2}

m=10\frac{m}{sec}

Compare

The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s

If you can tell me what the missing number is.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

So, to start answering this, lets recall the formula for a rectangles volume:

This formula is :

V=h*w*l

Lets plug in what we know, and solve for the missing variable.

We know that height(h) is 7.

We know that width(w) is 9.

We know that volume(V) is 378.

We are missing length(l)

So:

378=7*9*l

To find length(l), we must iscolate it.

To do this, we must get rid of the 7 and 9.

So lets start by dividing 378 by 9:

378/9=7*9/9*l

=

42=7*l

Now lets do the same thing with the 7 to iscolate l:

42/7=7/7*l

=

6=l

So our missing length(l) is 6.

Answer:

l = 6

Hope this helps!

Ryan estimates the measurements of the volume of a container to be 36 cubic inches. the original volume of the popcorn container
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

  • difference: -4 cubic inches
  • % change: -10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the new volume and the original volume is ...

  (new volume) - (original volume) = (36 in³) - (40 in³) = -4 in²

__

The percentage change is figured with respect to the original volume:

  % change = (difference)/(original volume) × 100% = (-4 in³)/(40 in³) × 100%

  = -1/10 × 100% = -10%
