So 5 and 1/2 cup flour =1 and 9/16
multiply both sides by 16
80 and 16/2 cups=16 and 9
88 cups=25 pounds
divide by 5
88/5=5 pounds
multiply by 2
176/5=10 pounds
176/5=35 and 1/5
35 and 1/5 cups=10 pounds

there is MORE than 35 cups of flour in a 10 pound bag

What method can you use to find the area of the composite figure? Check all that apply.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Decompose the figure into two rectangles and add the areas.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can draw a vertical line segment from the smaller section of the rectangle straight down.  This would cut the rectangle into 2 smaller rectangles.  We can then find the area of each rectangle and add them to find the area of the composite figure.

irga5000 [103]

Luke started a weight-loss program.

The first week, he lost X pounds.

the second week he lost 3/2 pounds less then 3/2 times the pounds he lost the first week. so, he lost 3/2 x - 3/2

The third week, he lost 1 more pound than 3/4 of the pounds he lost the first week. so, he lost 3/4 x + 1

So, over 3 weeks he lost :

x + (3/2 x - 3/2) + (3/4 x + 1) = 13/4 x - 1/2

=========================================================

Liam started the program when Luke did.

The first week, he lost 1 pound less than 3/2 times the pounds luke lost the first week. so, he lost (3/2 x - 1)

The second week, he lost 4 pounds less than 5/2 times the pounds luke lost the first week. so ,he lost (5/2 x - 4)

The third week, he lost 1/2 more than 5/4 times the pounds luke lost the first week. so, he lost, ( 5/4 x + 1/2)

The expression for Liam's weight loss over the three weeks is =

= (3/2 x - 1) + (5/2 x - 4) + ( 5/4 x + 1/2) = 21/4 x - 9/2

=============================================================

Assuming they both lost the same number of pounds over the three weeks

So, equating the number of pounds lost by each one of them

so,

13/4 x - 1/2 = 21/4 x - 9/2

solve for x

13/4 x - 21/4 x = -9/2 + 1/2

-2x = -4

divide both sides by -2

so,

x = -4/-2 = 2

so,

The number of pounds luke lost in the fist week is 2 pounds

=============================================================

4. The number of pounds luke and liam each lost over the three weeks is

= 13/4 * 2 - 1/2 = 6 pounds
