Answer: 1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is provided in the attachment.

Given, Amount blueberry jelly beans= 1\dfrac{1}{4} pounds

=\dfrac{5}{4} pounds.

Amount lemon jelly beans = 2\dfrac{1}{3}pounds

=\dfrac{7}{2} pounds

Total jelly beans she bought = Amount blueberry jelly beans + Amount lemon jelly beans

=(\dfrac{5}{4}+\dfrac{7}{3}) pounds

=\frac{15+28}{12}\text{ pounds}\\\\=\dfrac{43}{12}\text{ pounds}

Amount of jelly beans she gave away = 1\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{5}{3}\text{ pounds}

Amount of jelly beans she has left= Total jelly beans - Amount of jelly beans she gave away

=\dfrac{43}{12}-\dfrac{5}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{43-20}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{23}{12}\\\\=1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}

She has left 1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds} of jelly beans.

6 16x + 5y = -2<br> 4x - y=-2
Grace [21]

Answer:

x=2/9,y=26/9

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simultaneous equation

16x+5y=-2..(1)

4x-y=-2...(2)

From (2) make y the subject of formula

y=4x+2..(3)

Substitute (3) into (1)

16x+5(4x+2)=-2

16x+20x+10=-2

36x-10=-2

Add 10 to both sides

36x=8

Divide both sides by 36

x=8/36

Divide both denominator and numerator by 4

x=2/9

Substitute the value x into (3)

y=4(2/9)+2

y=8/9+2

Let the LCM be 9

y=8+18/9

y=26/9

Therefore x=2/9,y=26/9

The Ferris wheel shown makes 16 revolutions per ride. How far would someone travel during one ride? Round your final answer to t
sertanlavr [38]

Complete question :

The diameter of the ferris Given is 63 feets

Answer:

3165 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Diameter of ferris = 63 feets

Recall :

Circumference of a circle = 2 * pi * Radius

Or

Circumference = pi * d

Hence,

Circumference of wheel = 3.14 * 63 = 197.82 feets

Distance traveled during one ride :

Circumference of wheel * number of revolutions

197.82 * 16 = 3165.12

= 3165 feets (nearest whole number)
