Answer:

7 1/5 pounds in each basket

Step-by-step explanation:

Original pounds of onion = 9 3/5

New pounds of onion = 4 4/5

The onions then were mixed and kept in 2 baskets with each basket having equal pounds on onions

Total onions = Original pounds of onion + New pounds of onion

= 9 3/5 + 4 4/5

= 48/5 + 24/5

= 48+24/5

= 72 / 5 pounds

How many pounds of onions does each basket contain?

Pounds in each basket = Total pounds /2 basket

= 72/5 ÷ 2

= 72/5 × 1/2

= 72 / 10

= 7 2/10

= 7 1/5 pounds in each basket

Doug had been working 20 hours per week at a pet store for $8.00 per hour. His pay was increased to $8.50 per hour, and his hour
stellarik [79]

Answer:

$44

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much he was making originally:

Multiply the number of hours he worked by the amount he got per hour:

20(8)

= 160

Then, find how much he gets now:

24(8.50)

= 204

To find his total weekly pay increase, find the difference between them:

204 - 160

= 44

So, his total weekly pay increase is $44

If y varies directly with x. and y=10 when x=5.6, find the value of y when<br> X=3
Nady [450]

Answer: 5.3571

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to calculate direct proportion is: y = kx

We will find the constant of proportionality when y=10 and x=5.6. This will be:

y = kx

10 = 5.6k

k = 10/5.6

k = 1.7857143

The value of y when X=3 will be:

y = kx

y = 1.7857143 × 3

y = 5.3571

I NEED HELP PLS!!!!
hram777 [196]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

For these kind of problems, its best to use a Venn Diagram.

Lets break down the information:

<em>There are 50 students total.</em>

<em>25 take Math competiton classes.</em>

<em>29 take Geometry</em>

<em>12 take history and </em><em><u>no math classes</u></em>

<em>19 take </em><em><u>both math classes</u></em>

Now, make a Venn Diagram.

[Look at the photo attached. Also, the blank spaces in the Venn Diagram are ones that no student takes.]

The 12 taking history and no math classes and 3 kids not taking any of those classes look like they're the only ones not taking either math class.

12 + 3 = 15.

So the answer is 15.

[I'm not sure if this is correct or if I made a mistake so please let me know! Thank you! I hope this helps!]

:)
