Hello!

The Correct Answer would be:

"1.25 Pounds"

Why? Well:

1 ounce (oz) is equal to 0.0625 pounds (lb).

1 oz = (1/16) lb = 0.0625 lb

The mass m in pounds (lb) is equal to the mass m in ounces (oz) divided by 16:

m(lb) = m(oz) / 16

So as Result, The Answer is 1.25 Pounds.

Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)

nancy spent 7/8 hour working out at the gym she spent 5/7 of that time lifting weights what fraction of an hour did sje spentld

Juli2301 [7.4K]

$\frac{9}{56}\\$ Fraction of hour was spent by NAncy in lifting weights

Step-by-step explanation:

Time spent at the gym by Nancy = $\frac{7}{8}\,hour$

Time spent at lifting weights = $\frac{5}{7}\,hour$

What fraction of hour she spent in lifting weights?

Solving:

Fraction of hour she spent in lifting weights= Time spend at the gym-Time spent at lifting weights

Fraction of hour she spent in lifting weights= $\frac{7}{8}\,hour-\frac{5}{7}\,hour$

$=\frac{49}{56}-\frac{40}{56}\\=\frac{49-40}{56}\\=\frac{9}{56}\\$

So, $\frac{9}{56}\\$ Fraction of hour was spent by Nancy in lifting weights

Lines k and n are perpendicular.if the slope of line k is -6,what is the slope of line n?

aleksley [76]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Well perpendicular lines are reciprocals of each other,

meaning if like k has a slope of -6 then line n will have a slope of positive 1/6.

Thus,

line n has a slope of 1/6.

Hope this helps:)

a certain shark has triangular teeth with a height that is 1 centimeter shorter than the base. if the area of one tooth is 1 squ

Advocard [28]

The Shark's teeth has a base of 2 cm and height of 1 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given,

the area of the shark's triangular teeth = 1 sq cm

Let b be the base and h be the height of the shark's triangular teeth.

We have the teeth's height is 1 cm short than the base

So h = b - 1

Step 2 :

Area of Triangle = ( $\frac{1}{2}$ ) × b × h = 1

Substituting h = b -1

( $\frac{1}{2}$ ) × b × (b-1) = 1

=> b² - b = 2 = > b²-b-2 = 1

Solving for b we have

(b-2)(b+1) = 0

b = 2 or b = -1

Since b is the base , we take the positive value as length/distance cannot be negative.

So b = 2

h = b - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1

h = 1

Step 3 :

Answer :

The Shark's teeth has a base of 2 cm and height of 1 cm.
