Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Small Box:

9 dollars for 12 pounds

Per pound cost is:

9/12 = $0.75 per pound

Large Box:

18 dollars for 30 pounds

Per pound cost is:

18/30 = $0.60 per pound

Better deal is large box.

To make the deals same, we can change the number of pounds in the large box. We can lessen it so it becomes the same ratio as dollars to pound.

Small box was

9 to 12

Large box is 18 dollars to WHAT?

18 is double of 9 so, "WHAT" should be double of 12, which is:

12 * 2 = 24

So, we can change large box "30" pounds to "24" pounds.

So, the ratio becomes (cost per pound):

18/24 = $0.75 per pound (same)

find the amount each contestant would carry if the total amount carried (5 cups) was redistributed equally among all the contest
Blizzard [7]

<u>Complete Question</u>

The line plot shows the amount of green ooze (in cup) carried by ten contestants. Find the amount each contestant would carry if the total amount carried (5 cups) was redistributed equally among all the contestants.

Answer:

1/2 Cup

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Line Plot in which:

  • 1/4 had two Xs
  • 3/8 had two Xs
  • 1/2 had two Xs
  • 5/8 had three Xs
  • 7/8 had one Xs

Total

=(\frac{1}{4}X2) +(\frac{3}{8}X2) +(\frac{1}{2}X2) +(\frac{5}{8}X3) +(\frac{7}{8}X1) \\\\=\frac{2}{4} +\frac{6}{8} +1 +\frac{15}{8} +\frac{7}{8}\\\\$=5 Cups

If this amount was redistributed equally among the ten contestants:

Each contestant would carry (5/10) cups =1/2 cup.

Rashaads sister gives him 2 pack of cards per month and 3 extra packs for his birthday there are 11 cards in a pack. How many ca
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: he got 297 cards in a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 months in a year. Rashaads sister gives him 2 pack of cards per month. This means that in a year, his sister would give him

2 × 12 = 24 packs of cards.

If there are 11 cards in a pack, then the number of cards that his sister gives him in a year would be

24 × 11 = 264 cards.

He also gets 3 extra packs for his birthday. It means that the number of cards that he gets for his birthday would be

3 × 11 = 33 cards.

Therefore, the total number of cards that he gets in a year is

264 + 33 = 297 cards
