Answer:

The eight pounds of peanuts are more expensive, by $1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If eight pounds of peanuts cost $24.00, then one pound of peanuts costs $24.00/8 = $3.00.

If six pounds of walnuts cost $12.00 (half as much), then one pound of walnuts costs $12.00/6 = $2.00.

masha68 [24]

Answer:

$\frac{104}{5}$ weeks or $20\frac{4}{5}$ weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we can set up a proportion

$\frac{52}{1} *\frac{2}{5}$

This will tell us how many weeks are in 2/5 of a year

Let's evaluate this

$\frac{104}{5}$

We cannot simplifiy this anymore, so we will leave it as an improper fraction, or a mixed number as shown below

$20\frac{4}{5}$ weeks

M∠1 = 80 – x; and

Burka [1]

Answer:

$10$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>m∠</em>2 and <em>m∠</em>1 are congruent by the Corresponding Angles Theorem; we set both expressions equal to each other:

[80 - x]° = [90 - 2x]°

+ x° + x°

______________

80° = [90 - x]°

-90° - 90°

__________

−10° = [−x]°

$10° = x$
