Serena bought 3/4 of a kilogram of nuts. she delivered them evenly among 4 containers.

Sue Mitchell weighed 8 lb. 13 oz. when she was born. She now weighs 93 lb. 5

ra1l [238]

Answer:

Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz

Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

lb means pounds

16 oz = 1 pound

Convert the weight to pounds

Weight when she was born = 8 lb. 13 oz

= 8 pounds + 0.8125 pounds

= 8.8125 pounds

Present weight = 93 lb. 5

oz

= 93 pounds + 0.3125 pounds

= 93.3125 pounds

How much has she gained since birth

Weight gain = Present weight - Weight when she was born

= 93.3125 pounds - 8.8125 pounds

= 84.5 pounds

= 84 lb 5 oz

Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz

what has been her average weight for each year if she is 13 year old

Average weight gain = Weight gain / 13

= 84.5 pounds / 13

= 6.5 pounds

= 6 lb 5 oz

Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz

Solve the proportion 15/6 = 10/p

V125BC [204]

Answer:

p = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The usually recommended procedure for solving a proportion is to "cross multiply", then divide by the coefficient of the variable. (Solve the remaining one-step equation.)

<h3>Cross multiply</h3>

This means multiply both sides of the equation by the product of the denominators:

(15/6)(6p) = (10/p)(6p) . . . . "cross multiply"

15p = 60 . . . . . . simplify

<h3>Second step</h3>

Now, divide by the coefficient of the variable.

15p/15 = 60/15

p = 4

The solution is p = 4.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

If the variable is in the <em>numerator</em> of the proportion, using cross multiplication, you will find that you end up multiplying and dividing by the other denominator. To solve it in that case, you only need to multiply by the denominator under the variable.

__

For example, to solve ...

2/5 = p/10

you only need to multiply by 10. You don't need to multiply by 50, then divide by 5.

__

Any proportion can be written 4 ways:

$\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{c}{d}\ \Leftrightarrow\ \dfrac{a}{c}=\dfrac{b}{d}\ \Leftrightarrow\ \dfrac{b}{a}=\dfrac{d}{c}\ \Leftrightarrow\ \dfrac{c}{a}=\dfrac{d}{b}$

This suggests another strategy: invert the whole proportion, then solve it as one with p in the numerator:

6/15 = p/10 ⇒ p = 10(6/15) = 4

What is the solution to the system? 1. x-y + 2 z = -7<br> 2. y + z =1<br> 3. x-2 y - 3 z = 0

kvv77 [185]

You'd find this problem easier to understand and do if you'd please list the defining equations vertically and line up variables:

1. x - 1y + 2 z = -7

2. y + 1z = 1

3. x - 2 y - 3 z = 0 Now eliminate the line numbers:

x - 1y + 2 z = -7

1y + 1 z = 1

x - 2 y - 3 z = 0

Let's use the elimination method to eliminate variable z: Seeing that z = 1 - y, we transform the first equation into 1x - 1y + 2(1-y) = -7

and the third into x - 2y - 3(1-y) = 0.

Simplifying 1x - 1y + 2(1-y) = -7

and x - 2y - 3(1-y) = 0,

we get

1x - 2y - 3 + 3y) = 0 and 1x - 1y + 2 - 2y = -7

which in turn simplify to

1x + y = 3 and 1x - 3y = -9

Having eliminated the variable z, we now focus on eliminating x. Mult. the 1st equation by -1, obtaining -1x - 1y = -3. Add this result to 1x - 3y = -9:

0 - 4y = -12, which tells us that y = 3. Subbing 3 for y in 1x + 1y = 3 tells us that x = 0.

All we have left to determine is the vaue of z.

Borrowing Equation 3, from above, we get x - 2 y - 3 z = 0, and into this equation we substitute x = 0 and y = 3: 0 -2(3) - 3z = 0.

Thus, -3z = 6, and z = -2.

The solution set is (0, 3, -2). You should check this by substitution.
