Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 oz = 0.0625 lb

Ratio of the hiker an backpack in the first row = 152.25 lb : 14.5 lb

                                                                            = 21 : 2

Hiker's weight       Backpack weight                  Total weight (in lb)

1). 152 lb 4 oz                14 lb 8 oz                (152+14) lb (4+8) oz = 164lb 12oz

                                                                                                  = 16.75 lb

2). 107 lb 10 oz               10 lb 4 oz                (107+10) lb (10+4) oz = 117 lb 14 oz

                                                                                                        = 117.875 lb

3). 129 lb 15 oz           \frac{129.9375}{x}=\frac{21}{2}                 (129+12) lb (15+6)oz = 141 lb 21 oz

                              x = 12.375 lb                                                      = 142.3125lb

                              x = 12 lb 6 oz

4). \frac{x}{8.75}=\frac{21}{2}                   8 lb 12 oz                 (8 + 91) lb (14+12) oz = 99 lb 26 lb

   x = 91.875 lb                                                                                = 100.625 lb

  x = 91 lb 14 oz

5). \frac{x}{10}=\frac{21}{2}                     10 lb                           (105 + 10) lb = 115 lb

    x = 105 lb

A recipe uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings if the same amount of milk is used for each serving how many servings can b
aev [14]

Answer:

128 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

5/4 cups of milk for 10 servings is equal to 1/8 cup per 1 serving

there are 16 cups in a gallon

let 'n' = # servings in a gallon

so 1/8 : 1 is 16 : n

1/8n = 16

n = 16(8)

n = 128

3 years from now, Ron's age will be 2 times that of Miley. Three years ago, Ron's age was 3 times that of Miley.
andrezito [222]

Answer:

M=9

EXPLANATION:

Let R represent Ronald’s present age. Let M represent Miley’s present age. Three years from now, Ronald and Miley will be R+3 and M+3 years old, respectively.

Your assertion “Three years from now, Ron’s age will be 2 times that of Miley's” can be written as

R + 3 = 2*(M + 3)

Similarly, your assertion “Three years ago, Ron's age was 3 times that of Miley's” can be written as

R - 3 = 3*(M-3)

We can add the left side of these equations together, and also the right side of these equations together, and obtain a new equation …

R + 3 + R - 3 = 2*(M + 3) + 3*(M - 3) = 2M + 6 + 3M - 9 = 5M - 3

This can be simplified to

2R = 5M - 3

We can divide both sides of the last equation by 2, and obtain ..

(2/2) * R = (5/2) * M - 3/2, or R = (5/2) * M - 3/2.

Now we can “plug in” the last equation into either of our first two equations of this post, and solve for M.

Using the first equation, we have

(5/2) * M - 3/2 + 3 = 2 *(M + 3) = 2M + 6

We now have

(5/2) * M + 3/2 = 2M + 6

The left side of this equation can be rewritten as

(5M + 3) / 2, so we obtain

(5M + 3) / 2 = 2M + 6

Multiplying both sides by 2, we have

5M + 3 = 4M + 12

Subtracting 4M and 3 from both sides, we obtain

M = 9

Miley’s present age is 9.
