Answer:
8.0
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are trying to find the nearest tenth decimal place, we look at the hundredths place to figure it out. Since it is ≥5, we round up.
What the question?
Or picture
Let's say that the weight of the orange is x and the weight of the pineapple is y.
The weight of the pineapple is 7 times that of the orange, so
y = 7x.
Also, y = x + 870.
Therefore, 7x = x + 870.
If we take away x from both sides, we get 6x = 870
If we divide both sides by 6, we get x = 145.
Therefore, the weight of the orange is 145 g.
Also, 145 + 870 = 1015.
So the weight of the pineapple is 1015 g.
To convert grams into kilograms, they must be divided by 1000.
Therefore, the weight of the orange in kilograms is 145/1000 = 0.145 kg
And the weight of the pineapple is 1015/1000 = 1.015 kg.
Answers:
a. 145g for the orange and 1015g for the pineapple.
b. 0.145kg for the orange and 1.015kg for the pineapple.
Hi there!
Since the scale is 1 in = 4 ft, we divide both the length and width by 4 to get the new length and width with the scale factor applied.
16 / 4 = 4
12 / 4 = 3
So, the
length = 4
width = 3
Hope this helps!
