the large bag is 5/6 lb, the smaller bags will be 1/3 lb, so it should be 5/6 ÷ 1/3

\bf \cfrac{5}{6}\div \cfrac{1}{3}\implies \cfrac{5}{\underset{2}{~~\begin{matrix} 6 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}\cdot \cfrac{~~\begin{matrix} 3 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}{1}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}\implies 2\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

5/2 or 2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking "How many times does 1/3 go in 5/6"

So, we divide 5/6 by 1/3

5/6 / 1/3 = 5/6 * 1/3 = 5/6*3 = 5/2 or 2 1/2

Answer:

If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable. If they are inversely proportional, an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding decrease in the other variable.

Looking at the given values, as x is increasing, y is also increasing. The constant of proportionality is

9/3 = 27/9 = 3

Therefore, the relationship is a direct variation and the function to model it is

y = 3x

Which of the following inequalities is equivalent to 3-(w+2)>4+2w
Kay [80]

3 - w - 2 > 4 + 2w  \\  - w - 2w > 4 + 2 - 3 \\  - 3w > 6 - 3 \\   \frac{ - 3w}{ - 3}  >  \frac{3}{ - 3} \\ w <  - 1
The sign at the end changes because both sides of the equation are being divided by a negative number.

A triangle has angles that measure 46 and 84<br><br> what is the third angle?
pentagon [3]
The measure of the third angle is 50 because a triangle has a sum of 180 degrees by angle.

so... 46+84=130 and to get to 180, the last angle has to be worth 50.
