Answer:
If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
He makes a trail mix . He mixed 1 1/8 pounds of peanuts , 12 ounces of raisins, 11 ounces of walnuts and 7 ounces of pretzels. Notice the weight units are not equal to we have to convert the pounds to ounces so all the weight will be in ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces
1 1/8 pounds = ? ounces
cross multiply
1 1/8 × 16
9/8 × 16 = 18 ounces
Therefore,
His trail mix are
18 ounces of peanuts
12 ounces of raisins
11 ounces of walnuts
7 ounces of pretzels
The total weight = 18 + 12 + 11 + 7 = 48 ounces
Weight of the trail mix = 48 ounces
If he divide the trail mix among 8 hikers equally each will get 48/8 = 6 ounces.
Answer: y = 2x+22
========================================================
Explanation:
The equation y = 2x+5 is in the form y = mx+b
m = 2 = slope
b = 5 = y intercept
Parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts. So the answer will be in the form y = 2x+c, where b and c are different numbers. Since b = 5, this means c must be some other number. If c = 5, then we'd have the exact same line.
Let's plug in (x,y) = (-5,12), along with the slope m = 2, and solve for c
y = mx+c
12 = 2(-5)+c
12 = -10+c
12+10 = c
22 = c
c = 22
Since m = 2 and c = 22, we go from y = mx+c to y = 2x+22
The equation of the parallel line is y = 2x+22
The graph is below.
Let the common multiple be x
3x : 2x
3x = 125
x = 125/3
So, B pays 2x = 2 × 125/3 = £250/3
