Answer:

x = \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{5}{2x} = \frac{25}{4} ( cross- multiply )

25 × 2x = 5 × 4

50x = 20 ( divide both sides by 50 )

x = \frac{20}{50} = \frac{2}{5}

An airline charges an extra fee if a carry-on bag weighs more than 30 pounds. After packing, Lorrie’s carry-on weighs 21.2 pound
Genrish500 [490]

Answer: No more than 8.8 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation: Let x be the weight that Lorrie can add to carry-on.

We are told that an airline charges an extra fee if a carry-on bag weighs more than 30 pounds. After packing, Lorrie’s carry-on weighs 21.2 pounds. The inequality that will represent the the amount of weight Lorrie can add to the carry-on without going over the 30-pound limit is:

Let us solve for x by subtracting 21.2 from both sides of our inequality.

We can see that the weight Lorrie can add to the carry-on should be less than or equal to 8.8 pounds without going over the 30 pound limit. Therefore, the weight that Lorrie can add to the carry-on should be no more than 8.8 pounds.

There are 25 students in Mrs. Venetozzi's class at the beginning of the school year, and the average number of siblings for each
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The new class average for number of siblings is 3 5/26 or 3.1923

Step-by-step explanation:

if the average is 3 siblings per student and there are 25 students, it means that we can calculate the number of siblings

25 * 3 = 75

we add the 8 new siblings and we also add the student

75 + 8 = 83

25 + 1 = 26

To find the new average of siblings per student, we divide the number of siblings by the number of students.

83 / 26 = 3 5/26

the new class average for number of siblings is 3 5/26 or 3.1923
