they are 2 similar triangles, one is smaller than the other. they are in the ratio of 2:1,
hence 7x =56÷2
7x=28
x=4
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of days that fluffy eats wet food in a week and y represents the number of days that fluffy eats dry food in a week.
Hence:
x + y = 7 (1)
Also, John wants to spend at most $9.00 on cat food each week. Hence:
1.5x + 0.75y ≤ 9 (2)
The list of possible points after solving graphically are:
(0,7), (6,0), (0,12) and (5, 2). If x,y > 0, then the point that satisfies the inequality is:
(5, 2) i.e. 5 wet food and 2 dry food
The first question each friend gets 1/8 of the whole pizza
for half of the pizza each friend gets 1/4 so that times 2 equals 1/8
The second question one person gets 1/15 of the brownie pan
1/5 times 3 equals 1/15
The third question 1/3 cup one serving 1 cup three servings three times six equals 18 servings
The fourth question 1/5 cup one muffin one cup 5 muffins five times nine equals forty-five muffins
Hope this helps
