Answer: below

Step-by-step explanation: You simply need to divide the total amount of sugar (9 lbs) by the amount that you put into each bag (2/3 lb). This expression looks kind of ugly in this form, so let's instead multiply 9 by the reciprocal of 2/3, which in this case is 3/2. The reciprocal of any number is just 1 divided by the number.

The distance (d) in meters that an ant can travel varies directly with the amount of time (t) in hours it spends walking.assume
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:  d=18t

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, Direct proportion equations have the following form:

y=kx

Where "k" is the constant of proportionality.

In this case you know that the distance (in meters) that an ant can travel varies directly with the amount of time (in hours) the ant spends walking.

With this information you can write the following equation:

d=kt

According to the exercise, the constant of proportionality is:

k=18

Therefore, substituting the value of the constant of proportionality into the equation, you get that  the equation that represents the proportional relationship between "d" and "t" is:

d=18t

tamaranim1 [39]

X - (-20) = 5

When you subtract a negative, change it to addition:

X + 20 = 5

Subtract 20 from both sides:

X = -15
