The question is:

A cake recipe calls for 550 grams of flour. About how many pounds of flour do you​ need? Use the conversion factors (1 ounce)/(28.4 grams) and (1 pound)/(16 ounces).

Answer:

About 1.2 pounds of flour is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cake recipe calls for 550 grams, we want to determine about how many pounds of flour we need.

This simply means we want to convert 550 grams to pounds.

First, we were given (1 ounce)/(28.4 grams)

This implies that

1/28.4 = x/550 ..............................(1)

Where x is 550 grams in ounce.

Solving (1)

28.4x = 550

=> x = 550/28.4

≈ 19.3662

That is 550 grams is equal to 19.3662 ounce

Next, we are given the ratio (1 pound)/(16 ounce). We then convert 19.3662 ounce to pound

Let y be 19.3662 ounce in pound

=> 1/16 = y/19.3662

16y = 19.3662

y = 19.3662/16

≈ 1.2

That is 19.3662 ounce is equal to 1.2 pounds.

Therefore, 550 grams is equal to 1.2 pounds, and it is the amount of flour needed.

Edward wants to spend less than $115 to buy a
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: x < 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a jean be x

cost of a shirt = $25

cost of 3 jeans = 3x

since he wants to spend less than $115 , this means that

3x + 25 < 115

3x < 115 - 25

3x < 90

x < 30

The Slope of lines parallel to line is 1/2 and the Slope of lines perpendicular  to line is -2.

<h3>What is the equation of a straight line ?</h3>

An equation that can be written in the form of y = mx+c

where m is the slope of the line

and c is the intercept on y axis

The equation given in the question is

y=1/2x−7

in this the slope = 1/2

Intercept = -7

For parallel Lines

For a parallel line , the slope of the line is same

and is given by  m = 1/2

For a perpendicular line

Slope will be equal to

-1/m

here -1/m = -2

Therefore the slope for perpendicular line is -2.

Answers this for me plzzz really quickly????

It is not A or C, and D isn't specific enough (over what amount of time? is it flying up? down? It is going forward at the same height?) The most likely thing to stay consistent is the cost of fabric and it's length.

Say 1 foot of fabric is $3 (assuming there's no discount for additional feet, but math isn't that consistent with actual store sales), then 2 is $6, and 3 is $9.  That is a constant rate of change.
