A gardener has 8 pounds of fertilizer. He packs the fertilizer into 5/8 pound bags. What is the maximum number of 5/8 pound bags he can pack?
so first you multiply 8 pounds times 5 from 5/8 which is 40/8 pounds bags
now how many 8s can fit in 40
40 divided by 8 =5
so he can pack 5 maximum bags
Answer:
-19/36
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope using
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = ( 94-56)/( 28 -100)
= 38 / -72
= -19/36
Answer:
The sequence converges to 1
Step-by-step explanation:

Description of the sequence
The given sequence follows:
i.e.
For every term,
In other words,
as the value of n increases, 
approaches 1
<em>Hence, (c) is true</em>
Jamie's age is n. (given)
Brian's age is 2n. (given)
Half of Brian and Jamie's present age is (n +2n)/2 = 3n/2.
Let m represent Morgan's age now. Then
... m + 8 = 2 + 3n/2 . . . . . in 8 years, Morgan's age will be 2 more than ...
Subtract 8 to find Morgan's present age:
... m = 3n/2 - 6 . . . . Morgan's present age
