Answer:
Answer is :- Each pork chop weight is 4.8 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
A 3 pound pork can be cut into 10 pork chops of equal weight.
Weight of one pork chop = 3/10 pounds
or Weight of one pork chop = 0.3 pound
We can convert 0.3 pounds into ounces
Since 1 pound = 16 ounces
Then, 0.3 pound = 16 * 0.3 ounces
or 0.3 pound = 4.8 ounces
Hence each pork chop weight is 4.8 ounces.
Answer:
The points on a line can be assigned real number coordinates (think of numbers on a number line). The distance between any two points is their difference.
I am pretty sure that it is B
<span>Let x = the width
:
It says,"The length of a rectangle is 4 less than 3 times the width." write that as:
L = 3x - 4
:
If the perimeter is 40, find the dimensions of the rectangle.
:
We know: 2L + 2W = 40
:
Substitute (3x-4) for L and x for W
2(3x-4) + 2x = 40
:
6x - 8 + 2x = 40; Multiplied what's inside the brackets
:
6x + 2x = 40 + 8; do some basic algebra to find x; (added 8 to both sides)
:
8x = 48
:
x = 48/8
:
x = 6 which is the width
:
It said that L = 3x - 4, therefore:
L = 3(6) - 4
L = 18 - 4
L = 14; is the length
:
Check our solutions in the perimeter:
2(14) + 2(6) =
28 + 12 = 40</span>
