Answer:
24 cent
Step-by-step explanation:
If 13 inches of wire cost 39 cent.
We have to calculate how much 1 inch of wire would cost first, before determining the cost of 8 inches of wire.
If 13 inches of wire costs 39cents, Then 1 inch of wire would cost 3 cent.
That is 39/13, which gives 3.
If 1 inch of wire cost 3 cents. Two inches of wire would cost 6 cents we 3 inches of wire costs 9 cents.
To get the cost of 8 inches of wire, we therefore multiply 8 by 3, which gives 24.
8 inches of wire costs 24 cents.
keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above
so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1/2 and passes through the point (2 , -6)
Answer:
24 bags = 21 kg
1.142 bag = 1 kg
About 139 bags = 122 kg
You start off with 24 bags that equal the same amount as 21 kg. You need to find out how many bags of sugar equal the same amount as 122 kg. The first line is a ratio and to find your answer you need to figure out what is 1 kilogram equal to in the amount of bags. You divide both sides by 21 leaving 1.142 bag equal to 1 kilogram. In order to find 122 kilograms, you have to multiply both sides by 122 kilograms which would give you about 139 bags = 122 kilograms.
Your final answer: 139 bags
