2 = 8 / 4
8 / 4 - 1 / 4 = 7 / 4
They ate 7/4 lbs, or 1.75 lbs.
Answer:
10 ball caps
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are trying to know the number of caps the manger would buy that would equate the cost at both companies.
How do we get this?
Since we do not know the number of caps, let’s assign a variable. Let the number of caps that is required be x. Let’s now make some costings in terms of x. We proceed;
Company X charges $50 fee plus $7 per cap. Total amount company X will charge on x caps will be; $50 + $7(x) = $50 + $7x
Company Y will charge $30 plus $9 per cap. Total amount company Y will charge on x caps will be $30 + $9(x) = $30 + $9x
We are trying to look at the value of x that will make both costs equal. What we do is to equate both costs.
30 + 9x = 50 + 7x
We simply by taking like terms to the same sides
9x-7x = 50-30
2x = 20
x = 20/2 = 10
X = 10
So what this means is that manger has to buy 10 caps to have the same cost in both companies
Answer:
The independent quantity in the situation is the length of the diameter.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider a relationship between two variables.
Of the two variables one variable is dependent upon the other.
Dependent variables are those variables that are under study, i.e. they are being observed for any changes when the other variable values are changed.
Independent variables are the variables that are being altered to see a proportionate change in the dependent variable.
In this case, it is provided that Grissom knows there is a relationship between the volume of the sphere and the length of its diameter.
With every sphere that Grissom draws, the volume of the sphere changes according to its diameter length.
That is the volume of the sphere depends upon the length of its diameter.
Thus, the independent quantity in the situation is the length of the diameter.
Answer:
p=(t-s)/r
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an equation so all we have to do is solve backwards step by step:
rp+s=t
rp+s-s=t-s
rp/r=(t-s)/r
p=(t-s)/r
