Answer:

She can buy 0.8 cents worth of Gummy worms and 1.2 cents worth of sour patches

Step-by-step explanation:

Keisha is allowed to buy only 2 pounds bag of candy.

Now, she can choose either gummy worms or sour patches.

Gummy worms are 0.4 cents per pound while sour patches are 0.6 cents per pound.

Thus, maximum amount she can spend on gummy worms is; 0.4 × 2 = 0.8 cents

Maximum she can spend on sour patches is; 0.6 × 2 = 1.2 cents

She can buy 0.8 cents worth of Gummy worms and 1.2 cents worth of sour patches

Find the constant of proportionality for the table of values and write in the form y = kx

sveta [45]

Answer:

Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of lemons used is denoted by 'y'.

Number of glasses of lemonade is denoted by 'x'.

As we can observe that ,

$\frac{6}{24} = \frac{8}{32} = \frac{7}{28} = \frac{2}{8} = \frac{4}{16} = \frac{1}{4} \\$

so we can write i as

$\frac{x}{y} = \frac{1}{4}$

By cross multiplication

<em>y=4x</em>

So, if write it in the form y=kx,

It will be y=4x.

If you spend $50 (including shipping) at an online store, you recieve a $10 gift card. You want to purchase CDs that cost $12 ea

Crazy boy [7]

Four CDs must be bought to receive a gift card from an <em>online</em> store.

<h3>How to determine the least number of CDs to be bought to receive a gift card</h3>

The <em>total</em> costs are equal to the sum of the <em>shipping</em> cost and the total related to the number of <em>acquired</em> CDs (n). The number of gift cards (m) is equal to the total costs divided by <em>minimum spent</em> money, that is, $ 50. We need to solve the following inequation to find the minimum quantity of CDs:

(12 · n + 5)/50 > 1

12 · n + 5 > 50

12 · n > 45

n > 45/12

n > 3.75

In which of the options below will the number 3 correctly fill in the blank. Select all that apply. A) ___ : 4 = 12 : 16 B) 1 :

aniked [119]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

List of given options

Required

Which will correctly take 3 to fill the blank

Represent the blanks with x

Option A:

$x : 4 = 12 : 16$

Convert to fractions

$\frac{x}{4} = \frac{12}{16}$

Multiply through by 4

$4 * \frac{x}{4} = 4 * \frac{12}{16}$

$x = \frac{48}{16}$

$x = 3$

Option B:

$1 : 5= x : 15$

Convert to fraction;

$\frac{1}{5} = \frac{x}{15}$

Multiply through by 15

$15 * \frac{1}{5} = \frac{x}{15} * 15$

$15 * \frac{1}{5} = x$

$3 = x$

$x = 3$

Option C:

$x : 1 = 12 : 3$

Convert to fraction

$\frac{x}{1} = \frac{12}{3}$

$x = 4$

Option D

$15:x = 3:1$

Convert to fraction

$\frac{15}{x} = \frac{3}{1}$

Cross Multiply

$3 * x = 15 * 1$

$3 * x = 15$

Divide through by 3

$x = 5$

From the above calculations.

<em>Option A and B can be filled with 3</em>

Use the order of operations to simplify the expression.<br> 4[3+3(5-1)]<br> What is the answer?

Nitella [24]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{60}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PEMDAS rule

Parentheses, Exponents , Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

$\sf{4 [ 3 + 3(5 - 1) ]}$

Subtract 1 from 5

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{4 [3 + 3 \times 4 ]}}$

Multiply the numbers : 3 and 4

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{4 [ 3 + 12 ]}}$

Add the numbers : 3 and 12

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{4 \times 15}}$

Multiply the numbers : 4 and 15

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{60}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
