Answer:
60 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the adult weight, multiply 12 by 5.
Since 12 pounds is 20% of the adult weight, 100% of the adult weight would be 12 times 5.
12(5)
= 60
So, the adult weight of the puppy will be 60 pounds
So he's mixing:
1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice
1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pineapple juice and
1 gallon 3
<span>
quarts 3 pints of ginger ale
that's:
3 gallons 8 quarts and 13 pints.
2 pints make a quart, so 13 pints make 6 quarts and 1 pint, so actually it's:
</span><span>3 gallons 8+6=14 quarts and 1 pint.
4 quarts are a gallon, and 14 quarts are 3 gallons 2 quarts, so the final answer is:
</span>
<span>3+3=6 gallons 2 quarts and 1 pint. </span>
Answer:
x = 1.5
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this system of equation using the substitution methods we say let
2x+3y=12................................... equation 1
y=x+1.5..................................... equation 2
substitute equation 2 into equation 1
2x+3y=12................................... equation 1
2x + 3( x + 1.5) = 12
2x + 3x + 4.5 = 12
5x + 4.5 = 12
collect the like terms
5x = 12 - 4.5
5x = 7.5
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 5
5x/5 = 7.5/5
x = 1.5
put x = 1.5 into equation 2
y=x+1.5..................................... equation 2
y = 1.5 + 1.5
y = 3
therefore the value of x = 1.5 and y = 3 respectively.
Not sure if I'm right but I believe they intersect at (1,4).
