Alright, so the first step we are gonna do to solve this problem is subtract since Mason ate 5 ounces of the peanuts and so, we need to subtract 5 out of 29.8.
29.8 - 5 = 24.8
So, now there is 24.8 ounces.
Now we move onto the next step which is division. As you can see in the question it says "Then he divides the rest of the peanuts equally among 4 friends."
24. 8 ÷ 4 = 6.2
Since the answer is supposed to be a decimal..that's your answer!
So overall, each of Mason's friends get 6.2 ounces of peanuts.
Hope this helps!
If you are needing any more help, comment below this comment for any contact of mine. I'll be glad to help!

Answer:
Part A
Eagle = 6 lbs * 60%
= 6 * 0.6
= 3.6 pounds
Bear = 105 lbs * 25%
= 105 * 0.25
= 26.25 pounds
3.6 + 26.25 = 29.85 pounds
Part B
Percent Increase = Change/Original * 100
= 10/105 * 100
= 9.52%
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps bye
The equation for a line is y=mx+b
m is the slope, so when a line is perpendicular to another line is has a slope which is an opposite reciprocal, so change the -1/2 (the slope of the other line) to 2/1 or just 2
so m=2
now you need to plug in the point they give you for x and y
y=mx+b
4=2(4) + b
simplify
4=8 + b
subtract 8 over
-4 = b
now that you know that slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) you can plug those two numbers into the original equation for the answer
y= 2x -4
