Nicole drove 66 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set of an equation of 45 - x = 111 x representing the amount of miles Nicole drove. You would subtract 45 from both 45 and 111 and get that x = 66.

Anthony jogs 11 1/2 miles in 23 mins. If Anthony continues to jog at a steady pace, how many miles will he jog each minute?

frozen [14]

For this case we can raise a rule of three based on Anthony trotting $11 \frac {1} {2}$ miles in 23 minutes.

$11 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 11 + 1} {2} = \frac {23} {2}$

$\frac {23} {2}$ miles -----------> 23 minutes

x ----------------------------------------> 1minute

$x = \frac {\frac {23} {2} * 1} {23}\\x = \frac {\frac {23} {2}} {23}\\x = \frac {23} {2 * 23}\\x = \frac {1} {2}$

The ratio of chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles and oatmeal raisin cookies was 2:5:7. During the class party 12 chocolate ch

Schach [20]

Answer: 127 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If you look back to the text you will see that 12 is 1 in 1:3:4 and you multiply that by 2. 12 * 2 = 24.

2. Divide 24 by 3 and that gives you 8 than times it by 5 for it to give you 40

3. Divide 36 by 4 and that equals to 9 than multiply it by 7 which that gives you 63

4. Add 24, 40, and 63 for it to give you 127

Thank you for following these steps if it is correct and this is my first time so if I am incorrect I will look upon my mistake and correct and help many of you people who need help

In a certain chemical, the ratio of zinc to copper is 3 to 17. A jar of the chemical contains 799 grams of copper. How many gra

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

let's see what to do buddy...

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{zinc}{copper} = \frac{3}{17} \\ \\ \frac{zinc}{799} = \frac{3}{17}$

Multiply the sides of the equation by 799

$zinc = \frac{3}{17} \times 799 \\ \\ zinc = \frac{3}{17} \times 17 \times 47 \\ \\ zinc = 3 \times 47 = 141$

So A jar of the chemical contains 141 grams of <em><u>zinc</u></em>.

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.
