Answer: 1⁷/₈ pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the whole melon is the sum of the 1¹/₈ pounds given to the neighbor and the 6/8 pounds remaining.

Convert improper to proper:

1¹/₈  = 9/8

= 9/8 + 6/8

= 15/8

= 1⁷/₈ pounds

klio [65]
a. define variables for the quantities that are changing (be specific).
 We define variables:
 t = time in second
 d = distance traveled
 The variables that are changing are t and d.
 As the time increases, the distance decreases.

 b. what does it mean to say bob walks at a constant speed of 9.3 feet per second?
 It means that for every second that passes, Bob walks 9.3 feet.

 c. consider the formula d = 4320 - 9.3t i. what does t represent? ii. what does 9.3t represent? iii. what does d represent? 
 For this case we have:
 t = represents the time in seconds
 9.3t = represents the distance traveled by Bob
 d = represents the distance Bob must travel to get to the bus stop.
