<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Each brother gets </span>\frac{2}{3}<span> of a sandwich

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
We know that the total number of sandwiches is 2 and that the number of brothers is 3.

Since we are given that the sandwiches will be divided equally among the three brothers, this means that each will get an equal share.

Therefore, to get the share of each, we will simply <u>divide the number of sandwiches by the number of brother</u>s as follows:
each one will get = </span>\frac{# sandwiches}{# brothers} = \frac{2}{3}<span> of a sandwich

Hope this helps :)</span>

Answer:

Each brother will get  \frac{2}{3} of sandwich

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

There are 3 brothers

They need to share 2 sandwiches

To Find: how much of a sandwich does each brother get?

Solution :

3 brothers has no. of sandwiches = 2

They need to share these to sandwich equally

So, 1 brother will have sandwich :

=\frac{\text{no. of sandwiches}}{\text{No. of brothers}}

=\frac{2}{3}

So, each brother will get  \frac{2}{3} of sandwich

Itzik 45 seconds to fill an 18 down container how long will it take to fill a 40 gallon container
Akimi4 [234]
When answering this question, I'm assuming "18 down" means 18 gallons
To find the answer, we can divide:
40/18 = 5
( This basically means that there are 5 containers in the 40 gallon container)
knowing this:
45*5 = 225
(Basically solves the time to fill 5 containers)
It will take 225 seconds

Angie and Brian are running a bakery. They are going to make three kinds of banana bread: regular, one with extra sugar, and one
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

150 regular loaves

125 loaves with extra sugar

100 loaves with extra bananas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let R represent loaves of regular bread, S represent loaves with extra sugar, and B represent loaves with extra bananas. If they have 1200 bananas, 1050 cups of sugar, and 1075 cups of flour available, the number of each type of bread that Angie and Brian can make are given by the following system of equations:

3R+2S+5B=1,200\\3R+4S+1B=1,050\\2R+3S+4B=1,075

Solving the linear system:

3R+4S+1B-(3R+2S+5B)=1,050-1,200\\2S-4B=-150\\S=-75+2B\\\\3R+2*(-75+2B)+5B=1,200\\2R+3*(-75+2B)+4B=1,075\\3R+9B=1,350\\2R+10B=1,300\\\\3R+9B-1.5*(2R+10B)=1,350-(1.5*1,300)\\9B-15B=-600\\B=100\\2R+10*100=1,300\\R=150\\3*150+2S+5*100=1,200\\S=125

They should make 150 regular loaves, 125 loaves with extra sugar, and 100 loaves with extra bananas.

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (-2,1) and has a gradient of -3.
zavuch27 [327]

A straight line passing through the point (-2,1) and having a gradient of -3 yields the equation y = -3x - 5.

We know that a straight line is an infinitely long line with no curves on it. A straight line's equation is

y = mx + c...(1), where m is the gradient of the straight line and c is a constant.

Given that the gradient of the given straight line = m = -3.

Putting this value in (1), we get

y = -3x + c ...(2)

Again, the given straight line passes through the point (-2,1). So, we can put x = -2 and y = 1 to get the value of the constant c.

So, 1 = (-3)(-2) + c

i.e. 6 + c = 1

i.e. c = 1 - 6 = -5

(2) can be written as

y = -3x - 5

Therefore the equation of the given straight line is

y = -3x - 5

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (6,-2) and (12,1)
yarga [219]

Equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (6,-2) and (12,1) is:

y =\frac{1}{2}x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(x1,y1) = (6,-2)

(x2,y2) = (12,1)

The slope intercept form is:

y=mx+b

We have to find the slope first

m =\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\=\frac{1-(-2)}{12-6}\\= \frac{1+2}{6}\\=\frac{3}{6}\\=\frac{1}{2}

Putting the value of slope

y = \frac{1}{2}x+b

To find the value of b, putting (12,1) in the equation

1 = \frac{1}{2}(12)+b\\1 = 6+b\\b = 1-6\\b=-5

Putting the values of m and b

y =\frac{1}{2}x-5

Hence,

Equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (6,-2) and (12,1) is:

y =\frac{1}{2}x-5
