Converted to a decimal it’s -0.8
The answer depends on the way you solved it.
I am assuming you take the base on which you perceived to be: . 5 and height which is 2.
So you must've ended with 1
But in actuality, you need to use the equation above and plug in 1.5 and 1
Subtract them and you should get 1.25
Do the same to the other side, you should get 6.
.125 x 6 = .875
9p=-14
p=-14/9 is the answer to the problem
5p+4p+6= -8
9p= -8-6
9p=-14
p= -14/9
1 pound = 16 ounces
2 pounds x 16 ounces = 32 ounces for the peaches.
32 ounces - 14 ounces = 18
The peaches weigh 18 more ounces.
