Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we know:

  • Brooklyn bought 8 bags of dog food
  • Brooklyn also used a $5 coupon
  • The total was $91

Therefore, 8 × (cost of 1 bag) - 5 = 91

Form an equation with x as the cost of 1 bag of dog food:

8 × (cost of 1 bag) - 5 = 91

8x-5=91

Add 5 to both sides

8x-5+5=91+5\\8x=96\\

Divide both sides by 8

\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{96}{8} \\x=12

Therefore, 1 bag of dog food costs $12.

I hope this helps!

In B E C, F is the centroid, and AC = 12. Find A F and F C
klemol [59]

bearing in mind that the centroid in a triangle cuts each of the three medians in a 2:1 ratio.

since we know that A C = 12, let's split it in a 2:1 ratio then, cleary from the picture the larger is F C, so F C : A F is on a 2:1 ratio.

\bf A C=A F+F C\qquad \qquad \cfrac{F C}{A F}=\cfrac{2}{1}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{2\cdot \frac{12}{2+1}}{1\cdot \frac{12}{2+1}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 4}{1\cdot 4}\implies \cfrac{8}{4}

A rectangle has length 72 cm and width 56 cm. The other rectangle has the same area as this one, but its width is 21 cm. What is
Ira Lisetskai [31]

The length of the rectangle is = 72 cm

The width of the rectangle is = 56 cm

Area of the rectangle is = length*width

= 72\times56=4032 cm²

As given, the other rectangle has the same area as this one, but its width is 21 cm.

Let the length here be = x

4032=x*21

x=\frac{4032}{21}=192

Hence, length is 192 cm.

We can see that as width decreases, the length increases if area is constant and when length decreases then width increases if area is constant.

So, in the new rectangle,constant of variation=k is given by,

\frac{192}{72}=\frac{8}{3} or \frac{56}{21}=\frac{8}{3}

Hence, the constant of variation is \frac{8}{3}

Simplify by dividing negative three over eight divided by five over nine.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

\frac{-27}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to write in correct form :

\frac{-3}{8}:\frac{5}{9}

We know how to divide fractions. If we can divide numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator, we just do it. In this example we can not do that.

So, we rewrite first fraction and multiply by reciprocal second ( numerator and denominator change place)

\frac{-3}{8} *\frac{9}{5}

Now, multiply numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator :

\frac{-27}{40}
