Answer:

She will leave an extra video game which weighs 0.25lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Li wants to add these items to her suitcase: a hairdryer (1.25 lb), a hand-held video game (0.6 lb), an extra video game (0.25 lb), and a music player (0.4 lb). Using the inequality x ≤ 2.25, can she add all these items to the suitcase? If not, what could be left out to be closest to the maximum weight allowed?

Solution:

Weight of the items

hairdryer = 1.25 lb

hand-held video game = 0.6 lb

an extra video game = 0.25 lb music player = 0.4 lb

The total weight of the items

= 1.25lb + 0.25lb + 0.6lb + 0.4lb

= 2.5 lb.

Total weight - required weight

= 2.5lb - 2.25lb

= 0.25lb

2.5lb is 0.25lb greater than 2.25lb

Therefore, not all items can be added.

She has to leave out an item equivalent to 0.25lb

Item equivalent to 0.25lb is the extra video game

If Li leaves out the extra game, which weighs 0.25 lb, she’d have the maximum weight allowed.

If / and / are midsegments of , what can you conclude about / and /? Verify your results by finding x when QR = 3x + 2 and NP =
Ad libitum [116K]
Midsegments are line segments that connect the midpoints of a triangle. If we have the condition that QR = NP, we have the equation
3x + 2 = 2x + 16
Solving for x
3x - 2x = 16 - 2
x = 14
Therefore, x is 14. <span />
