Why is 12 inches 1 foot a conversion factor ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alinara [238K]3 years ago
3 0

I have no better answer than simply, because there are 12 inches in a foot.

By definition a conversion factor is one unit being used to express a group or multiple of another unit. Just like how there are 12 of anything in one dozen. 100 years in one century. 365 days in one year. 100 centimeters in a meter. 4 quarts in one gallon. 10 dimes in one dollar. They are equal to each other and, thus, can be used as conversion factors.

Tyler went to the supermarket to buy food for a food pantry. He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

option A: x + 1.5y ≤ 20

option C: x + 3y ≤ 36

option D: x ≥ 0

option H: y ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It says to assume x = the number of packages of pasta and y = the number of jars of pasta sauce.

Since the number of items can not be a negative number, we have x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0.

Condition: He has $36, and can carry up to 20 pounds of food in his backpack.

Pasta costs $1 for a 1-pound package. Pasta sauce costs $3 for a 1.5 pound jar.

If he buys 'x' packs of pasta and 'y' jars of pasta sauce, then:-

Total cost = 1x + 3y ≤ 36 dollars.

and Total weight = 1x + 1.5y ≤ 20 pounds.

Hence, we have four inequalities:-

option A: x + 1.5y ≤ 20

option C: x + 3y ≤ 36

option D: x ≥ 0

option H: y ≥ 0
