Answer: 1⁷/₈ pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The weight of the whole melon is the sum of the 1¹/₈ pounds given to the neighbor and the 6/8 pounds remaining.
Convert improper to proper:
1¹/₈ = 9/8
= 9/8 + 6/8
= 15/8
= 1⁷/₈ pounds
Answer:
4000 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In 2001 the total number of marketed units= 730,000
If this number represents 50% of what was marketed in 2004, then the total number of units marketed in 2004 was:
(100/50)× 730,000=1460000
To get the number for each of the 365 days in 2004 we divide the total for 2004 by 365
1460000/365= 4000 units
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form 
or 
in this problem
For x=32, y=-4
Find the value of the constant of proportionality k
substitute
simplify
so
The linear equation is
Find x when the value of y=0
Remember that
In a proportional relationship <u><em>the line passes through the origin</em></u>
so
If y=0
then
the value of x must be equal to zero
therefore
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable
subtract 16 from both sides
a=16-20
a=4
