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:
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the area of the plate
The area of a circle is given by the formula
we have
---> the radius is half the diameter
substitute
step 2
Find the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin)
we know that
The diagonal of the square is the same that the diameter of the plate
Applying Pythagorean theorem
where
b is the length side of the square
we have
substitute
solve for b^2
-----> is the area of the square
Divide by 2
step 3
Find the area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin
we know that
The area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin, is equal to subtract the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin) from the area of the plate
so
simplify
Ok...we got 250 people
30% are French, 35% are Americans, 20% are Germans....thats 85%.
This means 15% are from other countries
3 not from other countries...
0.85 * 0.85 * 0.85 = 0.6
0.6(250) = 150 students <===
Both are not functions because functions cannot have repeating x values
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminate the y terms by adding the equations together:
-10y+9x = -9
10y+5x = -5
——————-
14x = -14
x = -1
y = 0
