"measures to the nearest tenth of a pound" tell us to round each of the weights listed to the nearest tenth (since the unit is already pounds, no conversion is needed). What this means is if the second number to the right of the decimal is 5 or greater, then we add 1 to the first number to the right of the decimal (and replace the second number with a zero). With all this said, it's much easier to show you, rather than to try to explain it. :D
4.35 is rounded up to 4.4 because the second number to the right of the decimal is 5.
Packet A = 4.4
Packet B = 4.4
Packet C = 4.5
Packed D = 4.4
The question is asking what the heaviest reading will be, so from the whole list above we pick the highest number which is 4.5 pounds. Notice how the answer is not Packet C, or 4.48 pounds, but 4.5 pounds. It is asking for the reading, not the packet, nor the weight. Hope this helps.
The required value of y is 2645 / 77 when x = 77.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's check the information given to answer:
if y varies inversely as x, and y = 23 when x = 115. Find y when x=77
2. What is y when x = 77?
As the statement "y varies inversely as x" translates into y = k/x
If we let y = 23 and x = 115, the constant of variation becomes
23 = k ÷ 115
k = 23 × 115
k = 2645
Thus the specification equation is y = 2645 ÷ x . Now, letting x = 77, we obtain
y = 2645 ÷ x
y = 2645 ÷ 77
<u>So, The required value of y = 2645 / 77 when x = 77</u>

Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question we will have to open the bracket first
So let's solve the question
5(2x-8)+15=-15
Bracket first
10x-40+15=-15
We will have to solve the question further
10x-25=-15
Add 25 to both sides
10x=10
Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 10
x=1
Therefore x is 1
