Answer:
6.75 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of lemonade with Samantha = 4 1/2 gallons
= (4*2 + 1)/2 gallons = 9/2 gallons = 4.5 gallons
Amount of fat in 1 gallon of lemonade = 1.5 grams
To find amount of fat in 4.5 gallons lemonade
we multiply both side of equation with 4.5
Amount of fat in 1*4.5 gallon of lemonade = 1.5*4.5 grams = 6.75 grams
Thus,
there is 6.75 grams of fat in all the lemonade Samantha has for the party

Define x:
-------------------------------------------
Let the shorter piece be x.
Shorter piece = x
Longer piece = 6x
-------------------------------------------
Construct equation:
-------------------------------------------
x +6x =35
7x = 35
x =5
-------------------------------------------
Find the length:
-------------------------------------------
Shorter length = x = 5 feet
Larger length = 6x = 6(5) = 30 feet
-------------------------------------------
Answer: The shorter piece is 5 feet.
