This load will weigh
1.5 TONS ALTOGETHER.
So, the truck is delivering a
ton of cement blocks, and a
of bricks. To find how much this load weighs, we'd have to add the two fractions together, which proves to be quite easy, because the denominators are already the same, so we wouldn't have to change anything.
+
=
And now, we would want to convert that fraction into a whole number, or at least a decimal, to find how many tons the truck is carrying. So we would divide. Once the work is done, here is what would happen:
12 ÷ 8 = 1.5
And there's your answer. The truck is carrying
1.5 TONS.
This is what I got:
60/50 = X/70
70x60/59 = X
X = 84
196 Miles
184.63-19.99=164.64
164.64/.84= 196
Answer:
Ratio of x-coordinates:
Ration of y-coordinates:
Step-by-step explanation:
The table is asking for the ratio of x-coordinates for each point (A, B, C and D) for both the image and pre-image. The ratio is the image 'x' or 'y' value ÷ the pre-image 'x' or 'y' value. Each ratio should be expressed in simplest form and should show the same pattern of dilation, or same scale factor. In this case, the second figure is 1/2 the size of the original figure.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
There are many ways to approach this problem. I like a method that uses the least amount of computation. We could figure how much Wendy makes on a bag of chips, the additional amount Wendy wants to make, then divide the latter by the former to find the number of additional bags to sell.
We could use a proportion to figure the number of bags corresponding to $126 in earnings, then subtract the 72 bags already sold. Essentially, we will do this, but without the intermediate numbers.
__
The additional fraction of 72 bags will be ...
(126/108) -1 = 18/108 = 1/6
Then Wendy must sell an additional ...
(1/6)×(72 bags) = 12 bags
to increase her earnings to $126.
