Since Chloe collected 4 times as much as her friend, who collected 1/6 a bag, you will have to multiply 4 by 1/6 to find how much Chloe collected.

To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators. Then you put the product you got from multiplying the numerators over the product you got from multiplying the denominators. Remember that 4 is the same as 4/1. Simplify the product if needed.:
$\frac{4}{1} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$

Chloe collected 2/3 of a bag.

The complete question in the attached figure

we have that
for c=5 and n=20------------> n*c=20*5=100
for c=2.5 and n=40------------> n*c=40*2.5=100
for c=2 and n=50------------> n*c=50*2=100
for c=1.25 and n=80------------> n*c=80*1.25=100

therefore
<span>the function that models the data is n*c=100
</span>
the answer is nc=100

Alvin is planning to be out of town for the day, so he asks a friend to dog-sit his 3 dogs. Each dog eats 0.5 pounds of food eve

german

Answer:

2 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate how many pounds he needs for one day:

3(0.5)=1.5 pounds for each day Alvin is gone ( 3 represents his dogs, .5 is each dog's food)

Convert into ounces:

1.5*16=24 ounces for one day

Question: If dog food is sold in 12 oz cans, how many will he need?

24/12=2 cans

Thus, he will need 2 cans

1. What is the constant of proportionality, k,<br><br><br> of Kevin's wage? Greg's? Savannah's?

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Part a) The constant of proportionality of Kevin's wage is $k=\$8.25\ per\ hour$

Part b) The constant of proportionality of Greg's wage is $k=\$9.00\ per\ hour$

Part c) The constant of proportionality of Savannah's wage is $k=\$9.50\ per\ hour$

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

To find out the constant of proportionality k , divide the variable y (total earned) by the variable x (number of hours)

<em>Kevin's wage</em>

Take any point from the table

I take the point (2,16.50)

$k=\frac{16.50}{2}=\$8.25\ per\ hour$

<em>Greg's wage</em>

Take any point from the table

I take the point (3,27.00)

$k=\frac{27.00}{3}=\$9.00\ per\ hour$

<em>Savannah's wage</em>

Take any point from the table

I take the point (2,19.00)

$k=\frac{19.00}{2}=\$9.50\ per\ hour$

Salid bought 35 feet of window trim at a hardware store the trim cost 1.75 pet foot including sales tax if salid paid 100.00 bil

skad [1K]

Answer: Salid should get $38.75 of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

<em>Quantity of window trim bought: 35 feet </em>
<em>Cost per feet: $1.75 </em>
<em>Amount paid: $100 </em>

First, we have to calculate the total cost, by multiplying the Quantity of window trim bought (35) by the price per feet (1.75)

35 x 1.75 = $61.75

Finally, to calculate the change that Salid should get, we have to subtract the total cost (61.75) to the amount paid (100)

100-61.75=$38.75
