Answer:

(0.75) is the amount that each freind has.

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that Howard did NOT purchase not one pound of granola. Its only 60% of a pound. Therefore we'd do 60% divided by 4 and therefore get .75%. Each freind ate .75% of that granola.

A 2 -gallon container of window costs 31.36. what is the price per cup

irinina [24]

Answer:

0.98 $/cup

Step-by-step explanation:

The final answer asks for price/cup, as "per" means "divided by".

So, our final units will be in $/cup.

We are given that for every 2 gallons, it will cost $31.36.

In order to get from gallons to cups, we need to convert units.

In 1 gallon, there are 16 cups.

So, our conversion factor will be 16 cups/1 gallon.

$\frac{31.36}{2} *\frac{1}{16} \\\\= 0.98$ $/cup

Important things to note:

- With these types of problems, it makes it much easier if you just figure out what units you need in the final answer, and then use conversions and dimensional analysis to get the answer

Using the equation x+3, write one equation that has one solution, one equation that has no solution, and one equation that has i

Answer:

one: x+3 = 2x
none: x+3 = x
infinite: x+3 = x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation with variable terms on opposite sides of the equal sign will have one solution when the coefficients of those variables are different.

x+3 = 2x . . . . has one solution (x=3)

There will be no solution if the variable terms on opposite sides of the equal sign have the same coefficient, but the constants are different. Such an equation can be reduced to 0 = 1, which cannot be made true by any value of the variable.

x +3 = x . . . . has no solutions

There will be an infinite number of solutions if the left side of the equal sign is the same as the right side. Every value of the variable will satisfy the equation.

x +3 = x +3 . . . . has infinite solutions
