Let's use ratio and proportion or rates to solve thisIf there is 5/6 cup of cinnamon in a 3/4 pound of spice mix, how many are in a pound?5/6=3/4 ?=11/ (3/4)*5/6=11/9Therefore there are 10/9 cups of cinnamon in 1.111... or 11/9 pounds of spice mix.
Answer:
x^2 - 5x - 66
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Distrubute the x to the x and -11 so you will get x^2 - 11x
2. Distrubute the 6 to x and -11 and you get 6x - 66
3. Combine like terms (x^2 - 11x + 6x - 66) you will get x^2 - 5x - 66
The way i did that in middle school was plot the points then find the slpoe and work it out from there
Answer:
The sides are 5,18,16
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter of a triangle, we add up all the sides
n +4n-2 + 5n-9 = 39
Combine like terms
10n -11 = 39
Add 11 to each side
10n-11+11 = 39+11
10n = 50
Divide by 10
10n/10 =50/10
n = 5
Now we need to find each side
n = 5
4n-2 = 4(5)-2 = 20-2 =18
5n-9 = 5(5) - =25-9 = 16
The sides are 5,18,16
