Answer:
1.) The product of 12 and 3/4 is less than 12. This is because you are multiplying 12 by a number less than 1.
2.) The product of 5 and 1/2 is less than 5, this is because you are multiplying 5 by a number less than one.
Step-by-step explanation:
If multiplied by a number less than one then it will be smaller than original
If multiplied by one will be the same as original
If multiplied by a number greater than one it will be greater than original
Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation: Imagine having 5 chocolate bars and then adding 2, or you could try counting with your fingers. Another method is writing a number line and going plus 2 from five so you can visualize it more.
Your answer will be x= -4y/3 + 55/3
B.) Hibiscus Street
The key thing to remember is the slope of the lines. The equation for a line in slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
where
a = slope
b = y intercept
So the equation for Oak Street is y = 2/3x - 7. So it's slope is 2/3. And any street that has the same slope will be given a tree name. And any street that's perpendicular will be given a flower name. You can determine is a line is perpendicular if it has a slope that's the negative reciprocal. So a street that's perpendicular to Oak street will have a slope of -3/2.
Now you've just been given the equation to a new street that's y = -3/2x - 2. Since the slope is -3/2 and Oak street has a slope of 2/3, the new street is perpendicular to Oak street. And given the naming scheme, that means that the new street will have the name of a flower. So let's look at the available street names and pick a flower.

A.) Weeping Willow Street
* Nope a Weeping Willow is a tree. So this name won't work.
B.) Hibiscus Street
* Yes. A Hibiscus is a flower, so this name is suitable.
C.) Oak Street
* Nope. Not only is this a tree instead of a flower, but there's already an Oak street. So bad choice.
D.) Panther Street
* Nope, this is an animal, not a flower. Bad choice.

Answer:
24% saline
Step-by-step explanation:
Find how much saline is in both solutions:
7(0.27)
= 1.89
3(0.17)
= 0.51
Add this together:
1.89 + 0.51
= 2.4
Since there are 10 quarts in total, the concentration of the mixture can be found by dividing 2.4 by 10:
2.4/10
= 0.24
So, the concentration of the mixture is 24% saline
