Your dog eats 7/8 lb of food in 4 meals , how many meals will it take your dog to eat 1 lb of food

Mathematics
1 answer:
choli [55]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 32/7, or 4 4/7 meals

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:

 7/8 lb           4 meals

------------        -------------

    1 lb                   x

x will be the number of meals necessary for the dog to eat 1 lb of food.

Cross-multiplying, (7/8)x = 4.

Multiplying both sides by 8/7 is an easy way to isolate x:

(8/7)(7/8)x = (8/7)(4)

or

              x = 32/7, or 4 4/7 meals

How to round 831,756 nears hundred thousand
Anettt [7]

A miniature quadcopter is located at xi = −1.75 m and yi = −5.70 m at t = 0 and moves with an average velocity having components
Black_prince [1.1K]

The quadcopter's average velocity is given in terms of change in position by

\vec v_{\rm av}=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta t}\,\vec\jmath

where \Delta x=x_f-x_i, the difference in the quadcopter's final and initial positions and \Delta t=(1.60-0)\,\mathrm s=1.60\,\mathrm s.

The x-component of the average velocity is 2.70 m/s, so

2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}=\dfrac{x_f-(-1.75\,\mathrm m)}{1.60\,\rm s}\implies \boxed{x_f=2.57\,\mathrm m}

and the y-component is -2.50 m/s, so

-2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}=\dfrac{y_f-(-5.70\,\mathrm m)}{1.60\,\rm s}\implies\boxed{y_f=-9.70\,\mathrm m}
