Answer:

<em>b = </em>\frac{7}{5}<em> = 1.4 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2b - 3 }{5} = \frac{b - 2}{15}

15(2b - 3) = 5(b - 2)

30b - 45 = 5b - 10

25b = 35

5b = 7

<em>b = </em>\frac{7}{5}<em> = 1.4</em>

Check the answer:

\frac{2(1.4)-3}{5} = \frac{1.4-2}{15}

- \frac{0.2}{5} = - \frac{0.6}{15}

- 0.04 = - 0.04

kozerog [31]

Answer:

16 cups of cashews

12 cups of almonds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say x is the cups of cashews and y is the cups of almonds.

We can write two equations:

x / y = (1/3) / (1/4) = 4/3

x + y = 28

Solve the system of equations using substitution.

x = 4/3 y

4/3 y + y = 28

7/3 y = 28

y = 12

x = 16

1.
Convert 22 miles to feet.


1 mile = 5280 feet

22 × 5280 = 116,160 feet

2.
To convert this you divide the speed by 60 since there's 60 minutes in an hour
125/60 = 2.0833....

Since you round the answer would be
2.1 miles per minute
