There are 3 3/4 pounds of bricks in a bag. Each brick weighs 5/8 of a pound. How many bricks are in the bag.
Bess [88]

Answer: There are 6 bricks in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert from mixed number to decimal number. To do it, divide the numerator of the fraction by the denominator and add the result to the whole number part. Then:

3\frac{3}{4}\ lb=(3+0.75)\ lb=3.75\ lb

Convert from fraction to decimal number. To do it you need to divide the numerator by the denominator. Then, you get:

\frac{5}{8}lb=0.625\ lb

Let be "x" the number of bricks in the bag<em>.</em>

<em> </em>Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following proportion:

\frac{1}{0.625}=\frac{x}{3.75}

Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

(3.75)(\frac{1}{0.625})=x\\\\x=6

10. 10x + 5y = 15<br> y=2x-3
Ivan

Answer:

(i think) 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you replace y with the equation y=2x-3, you get 5(2x - 3)

if you distribute this, it equals 10x - 15

combining like terms 10x + 10x - 15=15 will turn into 20x - 15 = 15

if you add 15 to both sides, -15 will cancel and 15 will turn into 30

20x = 30

divide both sides by 20 which will lead to x=1.5
