Answer:
20 books
Step-by-step explanation:
given that the shelf can hold 25 1/2 lbs (i.e 25.5 lbs), and that each book weighs 1 1/4 ln (i.e 1.25 lbs)
number of books which the shelf can hold
= weight that the shelf can hold ÷ weight of each book
= 25.5 ÷ 1.25
= 20.4 books
because having 0.4 of a book (i.e part of a book) would not be very feasable, we have to round the number of books down to the nearest whole number)
20.4 books rounded down to nearest whole number = 20 books (answer)
Answer: 1p/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y/x = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
y ∝ x
change ∝ to = by adding constant k or c
y = kx
Divide both sides by x
y/x = k, also k = y/x
Input the values
k = (7 1/2)/3. Change 7 1/2 to improper fraction to give 15/2
k = (15/2)/3
k =
÷ 3
Change the division sign to multiplication which will change 3 to its inverse(1/3)
k =
× 
k = 
Divide the numerator and denominator by 3 to get 5/2
k = 5/2
From y/x = k,input k into the eqn
y/x = 5/2
y/x = 2.5
The radius is half the diameter. 19*2=38. The diameter is 38.
