An 8-pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60. At the same rate, what would be the cost of 11 pounds of tomatoes?

1 answer:

5 0

Here is the solution to the given problem above.
Given that for an 8 pound bag of tomatoes costs $5.60, we would want to know how much will it be for 11 pounds. First, we should know how much does it cost per pound. So 5.60 divided by 8 is 0.7. So per pound of tomatoes costs $0.7. Now to know how much for 11 pounds, we multiply 0.7 by 11 and we get $7.70. The correct answer therefore would be option C. $7.70. Hope this answer helps.

Answer:

frac{21x^6y^5}{14x^2y^9}

Factor the number =\frac{7\cdot \:3x^6y^5}{14x^2y^9}

Factor the number 14=7. 2 =\frac{7\cdot \:3x^6y^5}{7\cdot \:2x^2y^9}

Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:7 =\frac{3x^6y^5}{2x^2y^9}

Write an equation for a line that is parallel to 2x+5y=15 and passes through the point (-10, 3)

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The equation of the line is,

$y = - \frac{2}{5} x - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to write it in a form of y = mx + b :

$2x + 5y = 15$

$5y = 15 - 2x$

$y = 3 - \frac{2}{5} x$

$y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 5$

When both lines are parallel to each other, they will have to same gradient value. So the equation of the line is y = (-2/5)x + b. Next, you have to find the value of b by substutituting (-10,3) into the equation :

$y = - \frac{ 2}{5}x + b$

$let \: x = - 10,y = 3$

$3 = - \frac{2}{5} ( - 10) + b$

$3 = 4 + b$

$3 - 4 = b$

$b = - 1$

A function will not have ANY repeating x values....it can have repeating y values...just not the x ones

so ur function is : (2,3) ,(1,3), (3,3) ....u see how u have no repeating x values

Last week 40 fifth graders went on a field trip to the science museum.

Artist 52 [7]

PART ONE:
To put this information into a fraction you write part over whole:
$8/40$

To change this into a decimal you have to plug in 8÷40 into your calculator:
0.2

PART TWO:
After you subtract 8 from 40, there are 32 fifth graders left.
The fraction will look like this:
$32/40$

To change this into a decimal you have to plug in 32÷40 into your calculator:
0.8

I hope this was helpful!
