The answer is 5 ounces. We can tell this by subtracting 0.32 from 1.16 and then dividing the product (0.84) by 0.21. This should give you 4, but then you have to remember that you subtracted the first ounce that costs 0.32, so when you add it back, you should have an answer of 5 ounces.
7(1 + 3) = (7 x 1) + (7 x 3) = 7 + 21
x = 95

Answer:
Ratio of sandwiches with white bread and brown bread is 10:3. Of the white sandwiches 2/3 are vegetarian, of the sandwiches that are brown half are vegetarian. What fraction of the sandwiches are vegetarian?
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
The ratio between white bread and brown bread is 10:3, that is, for every 10 white bread, there are 3 brown bread.
2/3 of white sandwiches are vegetarian.
1/2 of brown sandwiches are vegetarian.
We know that white bread is represented by 10, and brown bread is represents by 3. So, 2/3 of 10 are vegetarians, and 1/2 of 3 are vegetarians. The sum of them is
2/3 of 10 are vegetarians =
1/2 of 3 are vegetarians =
Therefore, 49/6 represents all the sandwiches which are vegetarian.
Answer:
the guy wire is 7.211 ft long
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that we are in the presence of a right angle triangle formed by: the height (the standing 6 ft pole), the base (the distance from the pole to the anchoring point on the ground), and the actual guy wire. See attached image for reference.
Notice that since pole and ground are perpendicular to each other (at 90 degrees) , the guy wire forms what is called the "hypotenuse" (longest side) of the right angle triangle. We can therefore use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem with the formula for the hypotenuse:
