Answer:
5 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Marianne buys 16 bags of potting soil which come in 5/8 pound bags
The above provides 10pounds of potting soil already
Now her father says he needs 13 pounds So Marianne should get an extra of 13 - 10 =3 pounds of potting soil
We know that 1 bag contains 5/8 pounds of potting soil
x bags contain 3 pounds of potting soil
On cross multiplication we get
x = 
since x is an integer x = 5 bags
Note that an extra amount of soil will be remained unused
The correct answer is a) $382.50.
He works 3 events and averages 150 pretzels; this is 3(150) = 450 pretzels. Since his cost is $0.85 each, we have
450(0.85) = 382.50
Which one do you need help with
15 increased by a number x: 15 + x
a number x more than −14: x > -14
t<span>he difference of 7 and a number x: </span>7/x
Answer:
1)( y= 0.12 * x ) y(dependent) , x(independent) 2) x=150 : y=18 / x=300 : y=36 / x=450 : y=54 / x=600 : y=72 / x=750 : y=90 / x=900 : y=108 3) 300+750+1050=2100 pound
2100*0.12=252 pound food they need to eat in each day
252*7=1764 pound in each month
