He needs 34.32 pounds to make 50. I believe he needs 4.375 cans.
Answer:
x = 107/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Our first step should be to turn all of the mixed fractions into improper fractions. So, 1 2/3 becomes 5/3, and -2 1/5 becomes -11/5. We now get -1/4(x + 5/3) = -11/5. Now we should divide both sides by -1/4, and we get x + 5/3 = -11/5 x -4 = 44/5. So x + 5/3 = 44/5. We want the denominator to be equal on both sides so a common denominator could be 15. 5(5)/3(5) = 25/15. 44(3)/5(3) = 132/15. So now we have x + 25/15 = 132/15. We subtract both sides by 25/15 and we get x = 107/15.
256 is about 270. 321 is about 320.
Add 270 and 320.
You have about 590.
The answer is A. The line goes right to left, which means the solution is X=something. When a line is straight, you cannot have a equation.
