<u>Part 1)</u> Use the fact that there are 12 inches in a foot
a) How many inches tall is a 7 foot basketball player?
we know that
1 foot=12 inches
so by proportion

therefore
<u>the answer Part 1a) is</u>

Part b) If a yard is a 3 feet long, how many inches are in a yard?
we know that
1 yard=3 feet
1 foot=12 inches
so
Convert 3 feet to inches
by proportion
therefore
<u>the answer Part 1b) is</u>

<u>Part 2) </u>At the farmer's market two pounds of peaches cost $4.20 How much will five pounds cost?
by proportion
therefore
<u>the answer Part 2) is</u>

<u>Part 3) </u>Janice mother gave her a ten dollars bill to buy five pounds each of bananas and apples at the grocery store. When she got there she found that bananas were 80 c per pound and apples were $1.40 per pound.
Did Janice's mother give her enough money? If so, should she receive any change? If not, how much more money does she need?
we know that
<u>Find the cost of the bananas</u>

<u>Find the cost of the apples</u>

Sum the cost of the bananas and the cost of the apples

------> Janice's mother didn't give her enough money
She needs more money
She needs-------> 
therefore
<u>the answer part 3) is</u>
She needs
more
Brigitte is shorter than 5 feet. (Brigitte's height=h)
We write this in inequality form
Brigitte's height is h
So 'h' is shorter than 5 feet
Shorter means less than so we use < symbol. We should not use = symbol because height is shorter than 5 not equal to 5.
Suppose if it is given ' height is more than 5 feet ' then we use greater than symbol (>)
h is less than 5 feet
h < 5
Inequality is h < 5
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
75% of x = 18
75/100 * x = 18 (x = total number of students)
solving
x = 24
total number of students = 24
Checking:
75/100 * 24 = 18
Answer:
first one - 30%
second - 15%
third - 40%
fourth - 20%
fifth - 75%
sixth - 70%
seventh - 88%
eighth - 25%
sorry but the last question is too blurry, can you type it and I can help you answer it?
Hope this helps.
