Answer:
16 oz, 12 oz, 4 oz
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces, and you can only use each weight once or not at all, you can determine how much is needed by simply adding.
2 pounds is equal to 32 ounces.
To achieve 32 ounces, you can use a 16 ounce weight, which will then bring the scale to need 16 ounces.
After this you can youse a 12 ounce weight, which brings it down to 4 ounces.
The last weight needed is the 4 ounce weight which will then level out the balance scale.

So here we're dealing with equivalent fractions.
It's really simple to find the answer, so I'll try to explain the best I can.
2 dogs / 5 cats is really just 2/5.
If we want to find an equivalent fraction, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
Currently the number of cats is 5, and we need it to be 140. What we need to do is find the number it has to be multiplied by to equal 140, which is 140 divided by 5. 140 divided by 5 is 28, so 5 x 28 = 140!
We need to multiply the denominator (5) by 28, so that we can get 140. What we have now is ?/140.
Like I said, to find an equivalent fraction, we need to multiply the numerator by the same number as we did the denominator, which is 28!
2 x 28 = 56.
So 2/5 is the same as 56/140.
The answer is D) 56 Dogs/140 Cats.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
9x - 40 = 3x + 20
<u>9</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>x</u> - 40 = <u>3x - 3x</u> + 20
6x - 40 = 20
6x <u>-</u><u> </u><u>40</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>40</u> = <u>20</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>40</u>
6x = 60
<u>6x</u><u> </u><u>/</u><u> </u><u>6</u> = <u>60</u><u> </u><u>/</u><u> </u><u>6</u>
x = 10
Now plug the x value in the equation to make the statement true that A is parallel to B.
9x - 40
<u>9</u><u>(</u><u>10</u><u>)</u> - 40
<u>90</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>40</u>
50
3x + 20
<u>3</u><u>(</u><u>10</u><u>)</u> + 20
<u>30</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>20</u>
50
Therefore, x = 10 making the statement true that A is parallel to B. Hope this helps and stay safe, happy, and healthy, thank you :) !!
