Number of pounds the other friend picked  =

5 1/4 - 1 3/8 - 2 1/2

= 21/4 - 11/8 - 5/2  The LCD of 2, 4 and 8 is 8 so we have:-

=  42/8 - 11/8 - 20/ 8

=  11/8

= 1 3/8 pounds Answer

Answer: Raymond is correct

The DJ charges $75 an hour.

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

Explanation:

x = number of hours

y = total cost

The DJ does a 3-hour event for $275. This means one point is (x,y) = (3,275)

Another point is (5,425) because a 5-hour event costs $425.

Let's find the slope of the line through these two points.

(x_1,y_1) = (3,275) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (5,425)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{425 - 275}{5 - 3}\\\\m = \frac{150}{2}\\\\m = 75\\\\

The slope is 75, meaning that each time y goes up by 75, x goes up by 1.

Flipped around it means each time x goes up by 1, y goes up by 75.

This means each time we add on an extra hour, the cost goes up by $75.

The DJ charges $75 an hour. Raymond is correct.

valina [46]

Answer:

25 ; 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

____________For __ Against __ No Opinion

21-40 years _________20 _______5

41-60 years ___20 ______________20

Over 60 years _55____ 15________ 5

Given that :

40% of 21-40 are against

Then :

40% = 20

To a obtain 100% of 21 - 40

40% = 20

100% = x

Cross multiply

0.4x = 20

x = 20/0.4

x = 50

100% of 21 - 40 = 50 people

For = 50 - (20 + 5)

= 50 - 25

= 25

2.)

Total who have no opinion :

(5 + 20 + 5) = 30

30 = 15%

Total number surveyed will be , x :

30 = 15%

x = 100%

Cross multiply :

0.15x = 30

x = 30/0.15

x = 200

Number of 41 - 60 against an increase, y:

(25 + 20 + 5 + 20 + y + 20 + 55 + 15 + 5) = 200

165 + y = 200

y = 200 - 165

y = 35
