Step-by-step explanation:
4x/2= -5
4x= -5*2
2x= -5
x= -5/2
11 lbs 5 oz - 1 lb 15 oz...we are gonna have to borrow...there is 16 oz in a lb.
11 lbs 5 oz....we r going to borrow 1 lb from the right side and add it to the left side making it 10 lbs and 21 oz...u see what I did...I borrowed 1 lb from the right side and added 16 oz to the left.Now we can subtract.
10 lbs 21 oz - 1 lb 15 oz = 9 lbs 6 oz <== ur answer
Dont know what to say but if u really need an answer i would say 1\4
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:
If a, b and c are in arithmetic progression, that means that a + c = 2b. So a + b, a + c and b + c are also in arithmetic progression.
