Answer:

  • 7 pounds of fish
  • 18.5 pounds of lobster

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of lobster sold. Then 25.5-x is the number of pounds of fish. The total money made is ...

  4.25(25.5-x) +9.00x = 196.25

  4.75x + 108.375 = 196.25 . . . . . simplify

  4.75x = 87.875 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 108.375

  x = 18.5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4.75

The market sold 7 pounds of fish and 18.5 pounds of lobster.

Which one of the following is not equal to 100 meters? 0.100 kilometers 10 hectometers 10,000 centimeters 100,000 millimeters
lara31 [8.8K]
Situation: Which one of the following is not equal to 100 meters?
We were given 4 different choices with corresponding values, not let's start finding the correct answer.
=> 0.100 kilometers
1 meter = 0.001 km 
100 meters = 0.1 km
=> 10 hectometers
1 meter = 0.01 hm
100 meters = 1 hm
=> 10,000 centimeters
1 meter = 100 centimeters
100 meters = 10 000 cm
=> 100,000 millimeters
1 meter = 1000 mm
100 meters = 100 000 mm
<span>thus the not equal answer is hectometer</span>

HELP ME PLEASE!!! The function f(x) is graphed on the coordinate plane. What is f(−2) ? Enter your answer in the box. f(−2) =
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

f(-2)=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

x -----> is the independent variable or input value

f(x) ---> is the dependent variable or output value

f(-2) is the value of the function f(x) when the value of x is equal to -2

so

For x=-2

Looking at the graph

f(-2)=-2

For an input value of -2 the output value is -2

Multiplication Property of Equality---- If 6x divided by 8 = 40, then______
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Option C.) 6x=320

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Multiplication Property of Equality</u> states that if you multiply both sides of an equation by the same number, the sides remain equal

we have

\frac{6x}{8}=40

Apply the multiplication property of equality

Multiply by 8 both sides

\frac{6x}{8}(8)=40(8)

6x=320

therefore

The answer is the Option C
