Use inverse proportion ratio: xy=k

(124)(7)=k
k=868 (this is our constant)

now substitute the constant into the inverse proportion ratio knowing the number of workers

28x=868

solve for x by dividing both sides by 28 to find the time it takes to build the house

x=31 days

so it will take 31 days for 28 workers to build the house

Ms. Novas bought 3 pounds of jelly beans. She kept 8 ounces for her family and gave the rest to her friends. She gave each frien
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A = 40/n

Therefore, she gave each friend 40/n ounces of jelly beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total amount of jelly beans To = 3 pounds = 3×16 ounces = 48 ounces

Total amount kept for family Ta = 8 ounces

Total amount given to friends = Ti

Number of friends = n

Amount given to each friend = A

Ti = To - Ta

A = Ti/n = (To-Ta)/n

A = (48 - 8)/n

A = 40/n

Therefore she gave each friend 40/n ounces of jelly beans.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

  50 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Before drying, the cranberries have ...

  (100% -99%)(100 lb) = 1 lb

of "meat."

After drying, that represents (100% -98%) = 2% of the total weight. Then the total weight is ...

  1 lb = 2%·x

  x = (1 lb)/0.02 = 50 lb

The dried cranberries will weigh 50 lb.
