5 pounds - 3 pounds = 2 pounds
2*16= 32 ounces
32 ounces - 10 ounces = 22 ounces

SO, he has 22 ounces of candy left.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The question is not complete but the information shows that we have to find out the ounces or pounds of candies left with Jack.

First we will write the relation between pound and ounce.

1 pound = 16 ounces.

Number of pounds of candies Jack bought = 5

Number of pounds of candies he gave to trick or treaters = 3

Number of pounds left = $5-3=2$

Now, in ounces this becomes $2\times16=32$

As, Jack ate 10 ounces of candy, he is left with $32-10=22$ ounces

Or if in pounds, he is left with $\frac{22}{16}= 1.375$ pounds

If x varies directly as y, then what is y when x = 4, knowing that x = 60 when y = 5?

Basile [38]

Answer: The answer would be 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Y varies DIRECTLY as x. Find the constant of variation, k, if y = -5x

The first sentence is there for information, the constant is a number( 1,2,3...so on) , so the only number is -5

It is a linear equation meaning equation of a straight line.

its form is y= mx+b, where m is the slope of the line, b is the y intercept when x=0. these info you have to memorize like your life depend on it.

next, y varies directly as x. If y = 15 when x = 60, find y when x = 100

if y= 15, when x=60, then there is a number m such that m*y= 60

or m= 60/y= 60/15 =4

so the equation is y=4x. in this cause, the b=0

so when x=0, y=0

The distance a car travels at a constant speed varies directly as the time the car spends traveling. If a car traveled 105 miles in 3 hours, how far could the car travel in 5 hours?

remember that distance = speed times time.

or d=Vt

so car goes 105 miles on 3 hours

how far it goes in one hour?

if you know that, then you can tell how far it goes in 5 hours.

How do i write 12.009 in a word form?

tia_tia [17]

Your answer will be twelve and nine thousandths because in place value decimals are like tenths, hundredths, thousandths. In place value for regular numbers are ones, tens, hundreds and so on. So, when you have 12.009, you are going to separate the decimals with the numbers. Then, write down the number in words which would be twelve. Now, go to the decimal and write that down, which is 9 thousandths. Finally, combine the both of them to get: twelve and nine thousandths.

Hope this helps :)
and good luck

Which of the following statements best describes the graph of −5x + 2y = 1?

Nina [5.8K]

First, we determine that the given equation in this item is a linear equation. Thus, it should be a straight line. With this, we are left with the third and fourth choice. Then, we substitute the given data points to the equation and see if the points satisfy the given.

Choice 3:

(1,3) : (-5)(1) + (2)(3) = 1 TRUE

(3,8) : (-5)(3) + 2(8) = 1 TRUE

(-3,-7) : (-5)(-3) + (2)(-7) = 1 TRUE

Choice 4:

(4,-3) : (-5)(4) + (2)(-3) ≠ 1 FALSE

(-1,2) : (-5)(-1) + (2)(2) ≠ 1 FALSE

(-4,5) : (-5)(-4) + (2)(5) ≠ 1 FALSE

Thus, the answer is the third choice.
