Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
If Whitney was driving x speed, her mother was driving x+5. Multiply that by the distance each traveled, and you have an equation that looks like this:
8(x+5) = 7(x)
Simplify it and you get:
8x + 40 = 7x
Now solve regularly:
8x-8x + 40 = 8x - 7x
40 = 1x
40 = x
Whitney's speed: 40
Her mother's speed: 45
The answer is: " 2 oz. " . (Assuming that EACH egg weighs the <em><u>sam</u></em><u></u><em><u></u></em><u></u><em><u>e</u></em>).

Explanation:
_______________________________________________________
Divide "1.5 lb" (that is, "1.5 pounds") ; {Note: "lb." = the abbreviation/symbol for weight in pounds}.
__________________________________________________________
by "12" (note: "one dozen" of anything equals "12") ; to find the weight of one egg in "pounds" (lb.); This is assuming that EACH INDIVIDUAL EGG WEIGHS THE SAME AMOUNT. Then we convert this value (weight of one egg, in pounds); to: "weight of one egg in OUNCES (abbreviation = "oz.").
→ Note the exact conversion: 1 lb. = 16 oz.
___________________________________________________
→ 1.5 lb. ÷ 12 = 3/2 lb. ÷ 12/1
= 3/2 lb. * 1/12 = (3*1)/(2*12) lb.
= (3/24) lb. = (3÷3)/(24÷3) lb.
= ⅛ lb.
_________________________________________________
→ Now, convert " ⅛ lb." to "ounces (oz.)" .
→ Note the exact conversion: 16 oz. = 1 lb.
__________________________________________________
So; (⅛ lb) * (16 oz / 1 lb)
= (⅛ * 16) oz = (⅛ * ¹⁶⁄₁ ) oz.
= ⁽¹ * ¹⁶ ⁾ ⁄₍₈ ₓ ₁₎ oz = ¹⁶⁄₈ oz = 2 oz.
______________________________________________________
The answer is: Each egg weighs 2 oz. (assuming that EACH eggs weighs the same.).
______________________________________________________
To check our work: Is our answer: "2 oz." (weight) per egg; reasonable??
_____________________________________________________________
Note: We have a dozen of eggs (quantity of "12"). The total weight (in "lb.", or "pounds", is "1.5 lb". (given in our problem). Since, 16 oz. = 1 lb. (exact conversion); let us convert the given "1.5 lbs" into oz.;
1.5 lb. * (16 oz / 1 lb) ; = (1.5 * 16) oz. = 24 oz.
2 oz. (weight) per egg * 12 eggs = 24 oz. . 24 oz. =? 24 oz. ? Yes! So our answer seems very reasonable!

Answer:
- Tables A and B represent linear relationship
-------------------------
<h3>Table A</h3>
- x = 2, 3, 4, 5 Difference is 1
- y = 14, 21, 28, 35 Difference is 7
- This is linear and the slope is 7
<h3>Table B</h3>
- x = -2, -1, 0, 1 Difference is 1
- y = 10, 5, 0, -5 Difference is - 5
- This is linear and the slope is - 5
<h3>Table C</h3>
- x = 2, 3, 4, 5 Difference is 1
- y = 48, 72, 90, 114 Difference is inconsistent
