Answer:

500g Jelly beans $9.90

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the values.

Let's know how much a gram will cost in each case

300g Jelly beans $5.80

1g = 5.8/300

1 g = 0.01933

500g Jelly beans $9.90

1g = 9.9/500

1g =0.0198

It's obvious that the second one has more value placed on it as it cost more per gram

Keith’s dog weighs 90 pounds and a healthy dog’s weight is less than 75 pounds. If Keith’s dog looses 1.25 pounds per week, how

vivado [14]

Answer:

12 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keiths dog will need to lose 15 pounds to get down to 75 pounds. If he loses 1.25 pounds per week, it will take 12 weeks to get down to 75 pounds. To figure this out, you would use the equation:

90 - 75 = 15

15 / 1.25 = 12

That is how you would get 12 weeks.

How do I find the values of these

skad [1K]

Since the triangles are similar, then 32 = x+7 those two angles are too
solve for "x"

now using proportions $\bf \cfrac{\textit{small triangle}}{\textit{large triangle}}\qquad \cfrac{JK}{18}=\cfrac{12}{12+10}$

solve for JK

$\bf \cfrac{\textit{small triangle}}{\textit{large triangle}}\qquad \cfrac{12}{12+10}=\cfrac{9}{9+KG}\implies 12(9+KG)=(22)9
\\\\\\
108+9KG=198$

solve for KG

the scale factor of the perimeter of both triangles is just the same as the ratio of the sides, or $\bf \cfrac{12}{12+10}$
