Let the total weight of the candy = x

We know the total weight is:

X = 3/20x + 1.2 + 3/5x+ 0.3

Simplify:

X= 3/20x + 1.2 + 12/20x + 0.3

X = 15/20x + 1.5

Subtract 15/20x from both sides:

5/20x = 1.5

Divide both sides by 5/20:

X = 1.5 / 5/20

X = 6

Total = 6 pounds.

Does the ordered pair, (1, 5/2) satisfies the given equation<br> 3x-3y=-3 ?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Ordered pair, (1, 5/2) does not satisfy the given equation  3x-3y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-3y=-3

Here (x, y) = (1, \frac{5}{2} )

3(1)-3(\frac{5}{2} )=-3

3- (\frac{15}{2} )=-3\\6-15=-6\\-9\neq -6

The area of a rectangle with 2 1/2 as the width and 10 feet as the length
Tanya [424]
The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
A=wl
w = width
l = length

First, we have to convert 2 \frac{1}{2} into an improper fraction, then into a number. The improper fraction would be \frac{5}{2}. Let's convert that into a decimal.
5/2=2.5

Let's multiply
2.5*10=25
The area of the rectangle would be 25 feet!
