Answer:
If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
He makes a trail mix . He mixed 1 1/8 pounds of peanuts , 12 ounces of raisins, 11 ounces of walnuts and 7 ounces of pretzels. Notice the weight units are not equal to we have to convert the pounds to ounces so all the weight will be in ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces
1 1/8 pounds = ? ounces
cross multiply
1 1/8 × 16
9/8 × 16 = 18 ounces
Therefore,
His trail mix are
18 ounces of peanuts
12 ounces of raisins
11 ounces of walnuts
7 ounces of pretzels
The total weight = 18 + 12 + 11 + 7 = 48 ounces
Weight of the trail mix = 48 ounces
If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.
5/4
(15/16)(4/3) The 4/3 is the reciprocal of 3/4
=5/4
Here is the answer to you question
Answer:
y = 2x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 2x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 2
Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (5, 3 ) into the partial equation
3 = 10 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 10 = - 7
y = 2x - 7 ← equation of parallel line
