Answer:
50 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Before drying, the cranberries have ...
(100% -99%)(100 lb) = 1 lb
of "meat."
After drying, that represents (100% -98%) = 2% of the total weight. Then the total weight is ...
1 lb = 2%·x
x = (1 lb)/0.02 = 50 lb
The dried cranberries will weigh 50 lb.
Answer:16
Step-by-step explanation:Next day there will be (36+12) or 48 players.
For 36 players 12 pizzas are needed
For 1 player 12/36 pizzas are needed
For 48 players 12/36*48 or 16 pizzas are needed
Given:

Let's evaluate and find the quotient.
We have:

SInce it is not a repeating decimal, we are asked to leave to answer as it is.
A repeating decimal is a decimal with digits or group of digits that repeats endlessly.
The decimal 5.937
ANSWER:
5.9375
For elimination, multiply one whole equation by negative one (-1), then add or subtract according to your signs. After that, it will be a one-step equation.
3x + 4y = 19 3x + 4y = 19 3x + 4y = 19 -2y = -14 y = 7
3x + 6y = 33 -1 (3x + 6y = 33) -3x - 6y = -33 -14 / -2
Then you would go back and substitute the value of (y) back into either equation and then solve for the remaining variable (x). Finally, use both values to make an ordered pair.
3x + 4y = 19 3x = -9 x = -3 (-3 , 7)
3x + 4(7) = 19 (-9 / 3)
3x + 28 = 19

We are given : $168 raised for washing 24 cars and $280 raised for washing 40 cars.
We know the rate formula.
Rate = Total amount ÷ Total numbers.
Let us find value of each rate for the given problem.
Rate 1: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $168 ÷ 24 = $7.
Rate 2: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $280 ÷ 40 = $7.
We can clearly see that Rate 1 is equal to Rate 2, that is $7.
So, we can say rates are equivalent.
