Hi! :)

So since you're trying to find \frac{1}{3} of 12, you would just need to divide 12 by 3. The answer to this would be that 4 of the cookies were peanut butter.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 45 \ \& \ y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of linear equations in two variables is ,

\begin{cases} x = 9y \cdots (i)\\ x - 5y = 20\cdots (ii) \end{cases}

We can easily solve out this Question using substitution method . For that , substituting x = 9y from equation (i) to equation (ii) , we have ,

\implies x - 5y = 20 \\\\\implies 9y - 5y = 20 \\\\\implies 4y = 20 \\\\\implies y =\dfrac{20}{4}\\\\\implies\boxed{\boxed{ y = 5 }}

Substituting this value in (i) ,

\implies x = 9y \\\\\implies x = 9\times 5 \\\\\implies \boxed{\boxed{ x = 45 }}

Manuel bought 9 pounds of apples. He has eaten 3/4 of a pound so far and has​ $15 worth of apples left. Write and solve an equat
Darina [25.2K]
Manuel bought pounds of apples and eat 3/4 of 1 pound
That is 0.75 pounds
Thus 9-0.75=8.25 pounds of apples left with him.
It is given that the cost of 25 pounds of Apple is dollar.
Let the cost of 1 pound of Apple be x.

8.25 multiply X=15

8.25x. 10
————. = ——
8.25. 8.25

X=10
——
8.25

X=1.818181

X=2

Then the cost of Apple is above two dollars per pound

5. A company is deciding which box to use for their merchandise. The first box measures 8 inches by 6.25 inches by 10.5 inches.
anzhelika [568]

Answer: 5. The second box required more material to make.

6. A company saves about $84.94 by choosing to make fifty boxes of the smaller box in comparison to fifty boxes of the larger box.

Step-by-step explanation:

5.  To solve this problem you need to find the volume of the boxes.

Volume of the first box.

v= 8 * 6.25 * 10.5

v= 525  

Second box volume

9 * 5.5 * 11.75 = 581.625

Which means the second box required more material to make because it has the greatest volume.

6. To solve this you have to multiply the volume of small and large boxes by 50 the multiply it by 0.03.

525 * 50 = 26250 * 0.03 = 785.5

581.625 *50 = 29081.25 * 0.03= 872.4375

872.4375 - 785.5  = 84.9375 which is about $84.94.

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 18 less than five times the middle number. Find the three integers.
Vesnalui [34]
Let us assume the first odd integer to be = x
Then
The consecutive middle odd integer = x + 2
The third consecutive odd integer = x + 4
So we can now write the equation as
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 5(x + 2) - 18
3x + 6 = 5x + 10 - 18
3x + 6 = 5x - 8
3x - 5x = - 8 - 6
- 2x = - 14
2x = 14
x = 14/2
   = 7
So the first odd integer is 7
The second consecutive odd integer = (x + 2)
                                                            = (7 + 2)
                                                            = 9
The third consecutive odd integer = (x + 4)
                                                       = 7 + 4)
                                                        = 11
So the three consecutive odd integers are 7, 9, 11.

I have three questions that I need help answering I would really appreciate it if you did thanks.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

27) y = kx

     18 = k(20)

     18 = 20k

      k = 0.9

28) y = kx

     -9 = k(3)

     -9 = 3k

       k = -3

     

     y = -3x

29a) y = kx

     5 = k(1/3)

     5 = 1/3k

     k = 15

    y = 15x                      

29b) y = 15x

        y = 15(-2)

        y = -30
