Question 1 Answer:
Aunt 1 and Grandma 1 would fill gift bags.
Mom and Aunt 2 would make centerpieces.
You and Grandma 2 would blow up balloons.
Since you are pairing up to complete the tasks, these pairs each have the shortest times in their respective categories and therefore are the most logical pairing to complete tasks.
Question 2 Answer:
We use algebra and our previous pairings to determine the length of each task.
<u>Gifts Bags --> 6/7 hours</u>
x = time together
= rate of completion
Aunt 1 =
Grandma 1 =

<u>Centerpieces --> 7/4 hours</u>
x = time together
= rate of completion
Mom =
Aunt 2 = 



<u>Balloons --> 15/16 hours</u>
x = time together
= rate of completion
You =
Grandma 2 = 



Shortest amount of time to complete all tasks is:
≈ 3.54 hours
Converting hours to hours and minutes --> 3 hours 32 minutes
Therefore they must arrive by 5:28pm to complete the tasks in time to leave at 9:00pm.
Yes, both angles are acute because all complementary angles are acute.
For this case we propose a system of equations:
x: Represents the amount of small popcorn tubs
y: Represents the amount of large popcorn tubs
According to the data we have to:
(Spending all the money in your wallet)
(Buying 7 popcorn tubs)
From the second equation we have:

Substituting in the first equation:

Thus, Katie can buy 3 large tubs of popcorn.
So:

In addition, you can buy 4 small tubs of popcorn.
Answer:
3 large popcorn tubs.
4 small popcorn tubs.
Answer:
The answer is 4,264.
Step-by-step explanation:
Y should also be halved.
For example, if x=4 and y=2, x=2y.
If x is halved for x=2, you get 2=2y, or y=1, which is still one half of x, so the proportion remains the same.
