Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 33/20 or 1.65 pounds left.
Given:
4 3/4 pounds of clay
1 1/10 pounds of clay for a cup
2 pounds of clay for a jar
Convert the mixed fraction into fractions.
4 3/4 = (4*4+3)/4 = 19/4
1 1/10 = (1*10+1)/10 = 11/10
2 = 2/1
19/4 - 11/10 = (19/4 *5/5) - (11/10 * 2/2) = 95/20 - 22/20
= (95-22)/20 = 73/20 or 3.65 pounds after making a cup
73/20 - 2/1 = 73/20 - (2/1 * 20/20) = 73/20 - 40/20 = 73 - 40 / 20 = 33/20 OR 1.65 pounds left after making a jar.
We can also convert the fractions into decimal numbers.
19/4 = 4.75
11/10 = 1.10
2/1 = 2.00
4.75 - 1.1 - 2 = 1.65 pounds left.
Plug in each possible value into the equation.
when m = 5
2k = m + 3
2k = (5) + 3
Simplify
2k = 8
isolate the k, divide 2 from both sides
2k/2 = 8/2
k = 8/2
k = 4
When m = 5, k = 4
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2k = m + 3
when m = 7
2k = (7) + 3
2k = 10
2k/2 = 10/2
k = 10/2
k = 5
when m = 7, k = 5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2k = m + 3
When m = 9
2k = (9) + 3
2k = 12
2k/2 = 12/2
k = 12/2
k = 6
when m = 9, k = 6
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
hope this helps
