Hello!

Let's find what 1/8 of 8 kilograms is, because that'll help us find 6/8 of them.

Now, you can find 1/8 of 8 kilograms using many different ways, but I just prefer this one.

8 ÷ 8 = 1

Multiply this by the numerator of the fraction that represents how much that guests ate.

1 × 6 = 6

ANSWER:

The guests ate 6 kilograms of the food.

They answer is they ate 6 kilos! of the 8 kilos because you have to reduce 6/8 to 3/4 and 3/4 of 8 is 6.

Y varies directly as xy equals 5 when X is 8 how do you find y when X is 9
FrozenT [24]

Given, y varies directly as x

So,

y=c\cdot x

Where c is a constant

When y equals 5 when x is 8

So,

\begin{gathered} 5=c\cdot8 \\ c=\frac{5}{8} \\  \end{gathered}

So, the relation between y and x

y=\frac{5}{8}x

now , when x = 9

Substitute with x to find y

y=\frac{5}{8}\cdot9=\frac{45}{8}

So, the answer is option 2. y = 45/8

Answer:

<h2>V = 235.5 in³</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a cylinder:

V=\pi r^2H

r - radius

H - height

From the pictue we have r = 5in and H = 3in. Substitute:

x=\pi(5^2)(3)=\pi(25)(3)=75\pi\ in^3

\pi\approx3.14

Therefore

x=(75)(3.14)=235.5\ in^3

Each T-shirt that just tease produces cross $1.50 to me they sell their T-shirts for $15 at events what is the markup on the T-s
SOVA2 [1]

Answer: The markup on the T-shirts is $ 13.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Markup is the difference between the selling price of a product and cost price.

Given : The cost price of each t-shirt = $1.50

The selling price of each t-shirt = $15

Then ,the markup on the T-shirts =  (Selling price of each t-shirt) -( Cost price of each t-shirt)

i.e. The markup on the T-shirts = $15- $1.50= $ 13.50

Hence, the markup on the T-shirts is $ 13.50.
