Answer:

7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the height of Jenny H. Then, we have that:

Height of Sally = (7/8)*H

Height of May = (6/8)*H

To compare the height of Sally and May, we just need to divide them:

Height of Sally / Height of May = (7/8)*H / (6/8)*H

= (7/8) / (6/8) = (7/8) * (8/6) = 7/6

So Sally is 7/6 times higher than May.

In ¾ pound of a banana bread, there is ½ cup of cinnamon. How much cinnamon does the bread contain per pound?
Shkiper50 [21]

1 pound of bread contains \frac{2}{3} cups of cinnamon.

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that , In \frac{3}{4} pound of a banana bread, there is \frac{1}{2} cup of cinnamon

<em><u>To find:</u></em>

Amount of cinnamon per pound in bread

Let "n" be the cinnamon per pound present in bread

\frac{3}{4} pound of banana bread ⇒ \frac{1}{2} cup of cinnamon

Then, 1 pound of bread ⇒ n cups of cinnamon

Now, let us use criss cross method (i.e. multiplying the diagonal ordered terms and equating them)

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow n \times \frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{2} \times 1} \\\\ {\rightarrow n \times \frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{2}} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3}} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=\frac{2}{3}}\end{array}

Hence, 1 pound of bread contains \frac{2}{3} cups of cinnamon.

Find the value of 15.0 N in pounds. Use the conversions 1slug=14.59kg and 1ft=0.3048m .
Sliva [168]

The value of 15.0 N in pounds = 3.375 lb

<h3><em>Further explanation </em></h3>

The derivative magnitude is a quantity derived from the principal amount

7 main quantities have been determined based on international standards, namely:

  • 1. Length, meters (m)
  • 2. Time, second (s)
  • 3. Mass, kilograms (kg)
  • 4. Temperature, kelvin (K)
  • 5. Light intensity, candela (cd)
  • 6. Electric current, ampere (A)
  • 7. Amount of substance, mol (m)

Newton (N) is one unit of force (F) which is a quantity derived from mass (m), length (l) and time (s)

Newton can be expressed in terms of Kg m / s²

Formula used:

F = m. a

N = kg. m / s²

In the British system there are units of slug, feet, and pounds so that the unit of force becomes:

F = m. a

Lb = slug. ft / s²

The relationship between the two-unit systems above is:

1 kg = 0.0685 slug

1 slug = 14.59 kg

1 newton = 0.225 lb

1 lb = 4,448 newtons

1 ft = 0.3048 m

So if we change 15 N to lb by using slug and ft

15 N = 15 * (1 / 14.59) slug * (1 / 0.3048) ft / s²

15 N = 3,375 slug ft / s ²

15 N = 3,375 lb

or we convert directly:

15 N = 15 * 0.225 lb

15 N = 3,375 lb

WORTH 10 POINTS! 1)susan can type 4 pages of text in 10 minutes.Assuming she types at a constant rate,write the linear equation
Minchanka [31]
1) pages per minute is the rate. the rate is the slope pages/minutes = .4
y=.4x or y=2/5(x)
2)birdhouses per day is the slope. = .6
y=.6x or y=3/5(x)
3) miles per hour is the slope. 500/8=62.5
y=62.5x
4) square feet per minute is the slope. 40/9 =4.444444444
y=4.4444444444x or y=40/9(x)
5)miles per minutes is the rate. 5/41 is the slope. 
y=5/41(x)
6) the rate is square feet per minute. 450/30=15
y=15x
