Y varies x
Invite the constant
y = kx
Kx/x = y/x
K = y/x
Slot in the values
K = 35/140
= 1/4 or 0.25

What is the value of y when x=70
y=kx
y = 35/140 x 70/1
y = 35/2
y = 17 1/2 or 17.5

You are doing annual inventory at the hardware store where you work. A box filled with brass connectors weighs 5 pounds 4 ounces

Georgia [21]

Answer:

304 brass connectors.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a box filled with brass connectors weighs 5 pounds 4 ounces. The box weighs 8 ounces when empty, and each connector weighs 0.25 ounces.

Since we know that 1 pound equals to 16 ounces.Let us convert weight of box filled with brass connectors from pounds to ounces.

$(5*16)+4=80+4=84$

Now we will find weight of brass connectors by subtracting weight of empty box from weight of filled box.

$84-8=76$

Let us divide 76 by 0.25 to find number of brass connectors in the box.

$\text{ Number of brass connectors in the box}=\frac{76}{0.25}$

$\text{ Number of brass connectors in the box}=304$

Therefore, there are 304 connectors in the box.

Studentka2010 [4]

$36
I think
$0.89 rounds up to $1.00
$0.75 rounds up to $1.00
$1.60 rounds up to $2.00
then multiply each by 9 for the 9 children
9
9
18
then add together
9+9+18=36
