Almonds: 20
Walnuts:
Pecans:40

Since the ratios are 4,3, and 8, the best way to do it is to use a proportion.

\frac{40}{8} = \frac{x}{3}

So yeah what you do it cross multiply and get 120=8x
divide by 8 and get 15.
15 ounces of walnuts.

Now for total just find the last part.
Since 4 is half of 8, the number of ounces is half of 40, which is 20.
So 20+40+15? You guessed it 75 ounces of Granola.

Hope that made sense.

Choose the correct comparison for the numbers below.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to compare all three numbers, you must change them all to have the same form, either all decimal form, all fraction, or all percentages.

The easiest ways to compare are decimal and percentage, as they're practically the same thing. For simplicities sake, though, let's turn all the numbers into decimal.

Since 0.85 is already in decimal form, leave it as it is.

3/4 can be turned into a decimal by putting it into a calculator, but intuitively you should know that it's 0.75. If you don't know a fraction intuitively, you just need to make the fraction into a multiple of denominator 100 and take the numerator. For example:

\frac{3}{4} * \frac{25}{25} = \frac{75}{100}

Numerator is 75.0, now simply move the decimal place up to to get the decimal form 0.75.

91% can be changed into a decimal by moving the decimal place left 2 places. 91.0% turns into 0.91.

Now that you can see the numbers, just rearrange them from least to greatest

0.75<0.85<0.91

equal to A

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (-2.5,6.1) and (-2.5,3.1)
podryga [215]
(-2.5,6.1)(-2.5,3.1).....notice how ur x values are the same. This means that u have a vertical line which has an undefined slope.

IF ur y values would have been the same, u would have had a horizontal line which has a 0 slope.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

$ 154

Step-by-step explanation

Let the value of suitcase=x

x × 4.5% = 6.93 (converted the question into equation)

x × \frac{4.5}{100} = 6.93 (converted the percentage into fraction)

x = 6.93 x \frac{100}{4.5} (took reciprocal of 4.5/100 after moving it to the other side of the equation)

x = \frac{693}{4.5} (multiplied the values)

x = 154 $ (simplified the fraction)

make it the brainliest and get 20 years of luck : )
