Answer:

The helmet weighs 4 7/24 pounds more than the football.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to figure how much more something weighs than the other, it would be necessary to subtract.

First, I decided to find common factors in the two fractions, which was 24. I used that as my denominator. 7/8 translates to 21/24 and the 1/6 in 5 1/6 translates to 4/24.

Using these new equivalent values, the equation turns into 5 4/24 - 21/24.

Solving that equation gives you 4 7/24, hence my answer.

Hope this helps.

If I'm wrong, feel free to say why or what I did wrong.

Answer:

PART A: Inequality (a)

Solve for y

The graph of y ≥ ⅓(8-x) is represented by the upper red line and all points in the shaded area below it. The line is solid because points on the line satisfy the conditions.

 Inequality (b)

Solve for y

The graph of y ≥ 2 - x is represented by the lower blue line and all points in the shaded area above it. The line is solid because points on the line satisfy the conditions. The solution lies in the purple area. It consists of all combinations of x and y that make y ≥ ⅓(8 - x) and y ≥ 2 - x. A practical but not a mathematical condition is that all values of x and y must be zero or positive numbers (for example, you can't have -2 servings of food), so I have plotted only the numbers in the first quadrant.

PART B: If a point is a solution of the system, then the point must satisfy both inequalities of the system.

For x=8, y=2. Verify inequality A  is not true. So the point does not satisfy inequality A. Therefore, the point is not included in the solution area for the system.

PART C: I choose the point (3,1) which is included in the solution area for the system.

That means Michelle buys 3 serves of dry food and 1 serving of wet food.

What is the next number in the pattern? 7,11,10,14,13
nikdorinn [45]
I think the answer is 17 because the pattern adds 4 then takes away 1 so 14-1=13 13+4=17
