Answer:  192 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the weight of Frances ( in pounds ).

Given : The ratio between Frances and Carolina's weight is 8: 7

If Carolina weighs 168 pounds, then using proportion s we have the equation below :-

\dfrac{x}{168}=\dfrac{8}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{8\times168}{7}\ \ \text{[Multiply 168 on both sides]}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8\times24=192

Therefore, the weight of Frances = 192 pounds.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The slope is -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need two points to find the slope

We have one point at (0,5) and we have one point at (4,2)

We can use the slope formula

m = (y2-y2)/(x2-x1)

   = (2-5)/( 4-0)

   = -3/4

The slope is -3/4

pls There are (4^9)^5 ⋅ 4^0 books at the library. What is the total number of books at the library? A.4^9 B. 4^45 C. 4^46 D. 1  
jekas [21]
We know that there are (4^9)^5 ⋅ 4^0 at the library, so we just need to simplify this to get the answer.
(4^9)^5 ⋅ 4^0
=(4^9)^5×1
=(4^9)^5
=4^9×5
=4^45. As a result, the total number of books at the library is 4^45 books at the library or B is the final answer. Hope it help!
