The answer is: " 128 oz. " .
_________________________________________________________
There are: " 128 oz. " (in " 8 lbs." ) .
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Set up a proportion; as a fraction; as follows:
________________________________________________________
400/ 25 = x / 8 ;
in which: "x" = the number of "ounces [oz.] there are in "8 lbs." ;
________________________________________________________
We shall solve for "x" , the answer to the problem:
Cross-factor multiply:
25x = (400) * 8 ;
→ 25x = 3200 ;
Divide each side of the equation by "25" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
→ 25x / 25 = 3200 / 25 ;
→ x = 128 .

Answer: " 128 oz. " .
_________________________________________________________
There are: " 128 oz. " (in " 8 lbs." ) .
_________________________________________________________
Note of interest: " 16 oz. = 1 lb. " (exact conversion).
So; "8 lbs. <span>= ?</span> oz. " ;
→ " 8 lbs. * (16 oz/ 1 lb) = ( 8 * 16) oz. = 128 oz. ; → which is our answer!

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x - 7
What does f(x) mean? It means that whatever variable you have on the left which is (x), the same variable must be on the right.
So f(2) means that whatever variable is on the right, it must be replaced with 2 on the right. So .....
f(2) = 4(2) - 7
f(2) = 8 - 7
f(2) = 1
Answer:
56 screws
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first we can find how many screws he needs.
So, if he uses 2 steps for 8 screws, and has 14 steps, that means he puts screws in 7 steps ( 14÷2)
then, if he uses 8 screws, each with 8 steps, we can do 8 times 7, which is 56 screws
