Answer:
- 3 packages of American (7/8 lb)
- 2 packages of cheddar (1/2 lb)
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of cheese Mrs Mack needs is an odd number of eighths of a pound. So, she must buy an odd number of the 7/8 pound packages.
If she were to buy any 1/5 pound packages, she would have to buy a multiple of 5 of them so as to have an integral number of eighths. The only suitable multiple is 0.
If Mrs Mack buys 1 of the 7/8 pound packages, she cannot make up the difference with half-pound packages. She must buy 3 of the 7/8 pound packages, for a total of 2 5/8 pounds of American cheese. The remaining pound can be bought as 2 of the 1/2 pound packages.
To buy 3 5/8 pounds, Mrs Mack must purchase ...
3 packages of American cheese (7/8 lb each)
2 packages of Cheddar cheese (1/2 lb each)

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Area = 5/6 * x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are given the base and height of a certain triangle, you will most likely be asked to find the area
The area of any triangle can be found by
Area = base*height * (1/2)
In your case
Area = (5/3)*x*x* (1/2) = 5/6 * x^2
In your case, x should be a known parameter of your triangle, so if you have the value of the height, you should be able to find the area. Or conversely, if you have the area, you can find the length and height of your triangle.
Answer:
300
Step-by-step explanation:
That would be 2.25 / 0.0075
= 300
Since this can’t be factored easily, you have to use synthetic division. This makes the answer x+4+(-1/x+5)
